I had a really horrible bug in there -- leaking a param inside the array push loop. cleaning it up dropped another 5 seconds or so from the 4th million inserted to the remote server!. Using local prepare (PQspecPrepare) prob another second or two could be shaved off. PGparam *t = PQparamCreate(conn); for(i=0; i<INS_COUNT; i++) { PGint4 a=i; PGtext b = "some_text"; PGtimestamp c; PGbytea d; d.len = 8; d.data = b; c.date.isbc = 0; c.date.year = 2000; c.date.mon = 0; c.date.mday = 19; c.time.hour = 10; c.time.min = 41; c.time.sec = 6; c.time.usec = 0; c.time.gmtoff = -18000; PQputf(t, "%int4 %text %timestamptz %bytea", a, b, &c, &d); PQputf(arr.param, "%ins_test", t); PQparamReset(t); } merlin -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
