Subject: Custom function in where clause

Hi,

I have searched solution to my problem a few days. On my query, there is big performance problem.
It seems to me, that problem is on where-part of sql and it's function.

My sql is:
select count(*)
		from table_h 
		where 
			level <= get_level_value(11268,id,area) and 
			(date1 >= '2011-1-1' or date2>='2011-1-1') and 
			(date1 <= '2012-07-09' or date2<='2012-07-09')
This takes about 40sek.

select count(*)
		from table_h 
		where 
			(date1 >= '2011-1-1' or date2>='2011-1-1') and 
			(date1 <= '2012-07-09' or date2<='2012-07-09')
when ignoring function, it takes <1sek.

Function is:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_level_value(_user integer, _id, _area) RETURNS integer
    AS $$
DECLARE found integer;
BEGIN
   SELECT 1 INTO found
          FROM table_o
          WHERE userid=_user AND
                id=_id AND
                area=_area;
   IF (found) THEN
      return 3;
   ELSE
      return 1;
   END IF;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;

On explain, it seems to me that this function is on filter and it will execute on every row. Total resultset contains 1 700 000 rows.
QUERY PLAN
Aggregate  (cost=285543.89..285543.90 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=32391.380..32391.380 rows=1 loops=1)
  ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on table_h  (cost=11017.63..284987.40 rows=222596 width=0) (actual time=326.946..31857.145 rows=631818 loops=1)
        Recheck Cond: ((date1 >= '2011-01-01'::date) OR (date2 >= '2011-01-01'::date))
        Filter: (((date1 <= '2012-07-09'::date) OR (date2 <= '2012-07-09'::date)) AND (level <= get_level_value(11268, id, area)))
        ->  BitmapOr  (cost=11017.63..11017.63 rows=669412 width=0) (actual time=321.635..321.635 rows=0 loops=1)
              ->  Bitmap Index Scan on date1  (cost=0.00..10626.30 rows=652457 width=0) (actual time=84.555..84.555 rows=647870 loops=1)
                    Index Cond: (date1 >= '2011-01-01'::date)
              ->  Bitmap Index Scan on date2_table_h  (cost=0.00..280.03 rows=16955 width=0) (actual time=237.074..237.074 rows=15222 loops=1)
                    Index Cond: (date2 >= '2011-01-01'::date)

How should I handle this situation and use function?
