Hi folks, I really like the idea of exclusively using views as interfaces to the applications (each app has its own view, tuned for the app's access patterns). So, in my model, of course inserts and updates also happen through views, also more complex operations could be triggered through view writes. But for some strange reason, my apps seem to produce high load on the server. So either I'm just too stupid for proper schema design or the view approach is really slow. What exactly does happen behind the scenes if I update some row in a view ? Does it end up in an full view query before doing the update ? cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
