 Yes, the function will delete records from the temporary table every time 
 on each call.
 if leaving a lot of dead tuples, then how can we solve it?

If the function deletes all records from the temporary table then
you could use TRUNCATE instead of DELETE.  Otherwise you could
VACUUM the table between calls to the function (you can't run VACUUM
inside a function).

Could you post the function?  Without knowing what the code is doing
it's impossible to say what's happening.  Is the temporary table
growing on each function call?  Does the function delete records
from the table on each call, leaving a lot of dead tuples?

hi, need some help with some experts 
here.
currently we have a function that use together 
with temp table, it calls search result function, everytime
this function is calling, it will go through 
some filter before come out as a result.
now we have some major problem , the first time 
the function execute, it take about 13 second
second time the function is execute, it take 
about 17 second, every time you execute the function
the time taken will grow about 4 second, 
?
mayi know what going on 
here?
since we use function with temp table, so every 
statement that related to temp table will using EXECUTE
command.
