Be careful...you are just testing one very specific thing and it its extremely possible that the Oracle JDBC batch insert is more optimized than PostgreSQL's. On my little pentium 4 workstation, by inserting 10 rows per insert: insert values ([...]), ([...]), [8 more rows];
small correction here, I actually went and looked at the JDBC api and realized 'addBatch' means to run multiple stmts at once, not batch inserting. femski, your best bet is to lobby the JDBC folks to build support for 'copy' into the driver for faster bulk loads (or help out in that regard). merlin
