Thank you very very much!!!!1 It sounds like you should look into the COPY command, or, if you're adventurous, the pg_bulkload project. They might get you the speed you're after, if not quite the implementation. But if what you're really after is to manipulate the table files directly - and I'm not sure why that would be a goal in itself - then perhaps SQL isn't for you. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
