Recently I have been put on a project that uses DB2 (not my choice).  I am
using functions for reports and was told this may not be allowed.  They

One gap is the ability to tune the code in the function (not really

Tuning the code in function requires to change the file containing the
function
defination and reloading the function. Hence the cycle of performance tuning
is
longer.

Regarding "real time analysis" what I understand is

EXPLAIN ANALYSE (of main SQL using the function) in postgresql cannot
provide the realtime analysis of the performace of queries inside the
function.
probably such a limitation may exists in db2 also.

I think the gap is genuine.

I normally use PostgreSQL for all my applications (this being an
exception).  Does anyone know what this statement is about and, more
importantly, does PostgreSQL have the same limitations?

Thanks,
