Description:

I am writing a function uuid.nextval(...) that returns a UUID value from a
preallocated pool of values known to be unique. I was seeing the pool
decrease by two per INSERT, and I found something interesting when I raised
a NOTICE in the nextval() function. Here are three INSERTs, and only the
last will result in nextval() being called once. Is this a known issue?
What would be the reason for calling the functions in the VALUES list twice?
For the foreseeable future, this means that the most efficient method would
be to place all functions in a FROM list.

dchain=# INSERT INTO public.party
VALUES ( uuid.nextval('party'), utc.get_timestamp(),
SESSION_USER::regrole, uuid.v4() );
NOTICE: ***** uuid.nextval

SESSION_USER::regrole AS user_updated,
uuid.v4() AS organization;
