The first few operations in a new session are necessarily going to be
slower than later ones, because of the need to populate internal caches
etc. If your function is written in a PL you might be able to shave
some time off by preloading the PL's shared library (see
shared_preload_libraries), but that will only go so far. The real
solution to this class of complaints is generally "use a connection
pooler".
