Wow, so awesome. I do hope at some point we can see some language improvements to PLPGSQL. More basic data structures could go a long way in making that language really useful, and…

It can be the primary reason, but it is generally one of a few very good reasons (performance is often another big one, as this article points out). I will say its importance is so…
