Result was the same. Using libpqtypes (source code follows after sig), stock postgres, stock table, I was not able to confirm your results. 4000 bytea blocks, loops of 1000 I was able to send in about 600ms. 50000 byte blocks I was able to send in around 2 seconds on workstation class hardware -- maybe something else is going on?. merlin #include "libpq-fe.h" #include "libpqtypes.h" #define DATASZ 50000 int main() { int i; PGbytea b; char data[DATASZ]; PGconn *c = PQconnectdb("host=localhost dbname=postgres"); if(PQstatus(c) != CONNECTION_OK) { printf("bad connection"); return -1; } PQtypesRegister(c); b.data = data; b.len = DATASZ; for(i=0; i<1000; i++) { PGresult *res = PQexecf(c, "insert into bytea_demo(index, part1) values (%int4, %bytea)", i, &b); if(!res) { printf("got %s\n", PQgeterror()); return -1; } PQclear(res); } PQfinish(c); } -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
