Thanks for all the replies from different ppl.
As you pointed out, each INSERT/UPDATE operation will result in a TCP
round-trip delay for postgresql (may well true for all DBMS), this is the
big problem to challenge our requirements, as extensively modify the
(legacy) applicatioin is not a preferable choice.
I measured the round-trip (UDP) delay as below:
a) SERVER A to SERVER B: 0.35ms
SERVER A to itself (Local host): 0.022ms
That is, in the tests I did yesterday, it is about 100k insert operations,
which means added around 35 seconds of delay.....
b) Also, using Iperf shows that
TCP bandwidth between Server A and B is about 92.3 Mbits/sec
TCP bandwidth between two ports at same Server A can reach 10.9Gbits/sec
That indicates the performance impact for the networking....
There might be parameter in Solaris to tune the 'ack response delay', but I
didn't try now.
Thanks for all the answers...

IIRC, this breaks with PQexecParams, which is the recommended method
for executing SQL statements nowadays.
