Hi. I've tried to reproduce slowdown and couldn't.

create or replace function fx4(int) returns int immutable as $$ begin
return $1 + $1; end $$ language plpgsql;

do $$
begin
for i in 1..5000000 loop
perform fx4((random()*100)::int); -- or fx2
end loop;
end;
$$;

Time: 8178.836 ms (00:08.179)
Time: 8306.694 ms (00:08.307)

Not sure why new is faster (perhaps, some noise?) - looking at perf
flamegraphs I don't see something evident.

create or replace function fx2(int) returns int as $$ select 2 * $1; $$
language sql immutable;
do $$
begin
for i in 1..5000000 loop
perform fx2((random()*100)::int); -- or fx2
end loop;
end;
$$;
