Re: Stored procedure slower than sql?

Parameterized.

IE (very simplified)

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION my_function(IN param1 BIGINT, IN param2
INTEGER)
RETURNS my_type
SECURITY DEFINER
AS
$$
/* my_type = (a,b,c) */
Select a,b,c
FROM my_table
WHERE indexed_column = $1
AND partition_constraint_column = $2;
$$
LANGUAGE SQL;

Parameterized vs non parameterized query?
