... and your question is what, exactly?
For crypto options, see
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/docs/faq-english.html#4.28 -- I'd think
pgcrypto is probably the best bet for you.

When a PL/PgSQL function is defined, some minimal parsing is done. The
first time in a given session that it is called, it is planned (once),
and the plan is used for future executions of the function (within that
session).
