Re: Default Performance between 8.0 and 8.1

Thanks Merlin.  I was running both via ssh so it effectively these were
local results.  I will try to isolate the issue to a single statement.  But
I think you have answered the larger question i.e. there is no well known
situation where this happens so I should expect to see roughly the same
performance between 8.0 and 8.1 for data loads and will therefore focus on
the specifics of our environment.

Regards,
-Ted.

a few seconds to several minutes is not the kind of variance that is
explainable by architecture changes between the versions.  something
is amiss.  'maintenance_work_mem' can make a big difference with data
loads due to faster index builds but even that would not account for
the difference.

are you running locally or remotely?  if running remotely, you might
be seeing some networking/tcp problems.

can you reduce your problem down to a single copy statement for analysis?
