Re: Help with bulk read performance

If the data are stored as a byte array but retrieve into a ResultSet, the unpacking time goes up by an order of magnitude and the observed total throughput is 25 MB/s. If the data are stored in a Postgres float array and unpacked into a byte stream, the
observed throughput is 20 MB/s.


float <-> text conversions are very slow, this is in fact due to the mismatch between base-2 (IEEE754) and base-10 (text) floating point representation, which needs very very complex calculations.
