Looks like they're pretty evenly matched.

Actually, a bit of poking into the contents of pg_proc will show you
that they are both aliases for the same C function (text_substr_no_len).
So they should be *exactly* the same speed.

Thanks Brian for your answer (although that wasn't what I was looking for, I was looking for Tom's answer).

Thanks Tom for your answer.
