Hi all, I think I've read somewhere in the documentation that the

plpgsql)
incur in performance hit due to the call the language interpreter.
Is that
correct or am I completely off track?
it's depend. Start of interpret is only one overhead.
Other is date
conversions to language compatible types (without C and plpgsql).
Only plpgsql share expression evaluation with database, so it's
specific overhead only for plpgsql.
So is plpgsql slower on date conversion than other languages? Just
curious: why does shared evaluation add some overhead?

but you can load perl after server start - look on preload_libraries
section in postgresql.conf
Nice to know.
Thank you Pavel
