I couldn't duplicate this problem -- I get the entire string. Maybe
your client is truncating the value -- how are you communicating
with the database?

Regarding what your function does, are you familiar with the repeat()
function described in the "String Functions and Operators"
documentation?

SELECT repeat('a', 10);
repeat
------------
aaaaaaaaaa
(1 row)
