Depends.  Got any indexes?  The more indexes you have to update the
slower it's gonna be.  You can test this, it's easy to create test
rows like so:

insert into test select generate_series(1,10000);

etc.  There's lots of examples floating around on how to do that.  So,
make yourself a couple of tables and test it.
