Slow performance on Windows .NET and OleDb

["Greg Quinn" <greg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have just installed PostGreSql 8.1 on my Windows XP PC. I created a simple 
table called users with 4 varchar fields.

I am using the OleDb connection driver. In my .NET application, I populate 
3000 records into the table to test PostGreSql's speed. It takes about 3-4 
seconds.

Even worse is displaying the 3000 records in a ListView control. It takes 
about 7 seconds. In MySQL, the exact same table and application displays the 
same 3000 records in under 1/2 second!!!

Why is PostGreSql so slow compared to MySQL? What do you recommend I do to 
speed up? It is such a simple query and small database.
