Your function essentially is running a query.
If you run that query outside of the function, does it finish on time?
If not, you have a simpler problem to tackle.
It need not necessarily be a bug if some queries perform worse in a later
PostgreSQL version. There are too many factors involved in the execution
of a complicated query. To give help, we'd need at least the EXPLAIN
output from the query and the EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) output from the
query on the old version.
