I have made a small modification to keep the plans, and it got from

If I'm reading results.txt correctly, the avg runtimes are:

C and SPI_execute_with_args: 58567.708 ms
C and SPI_(prepare/keepplan/execute_plan): 43782.376 ms
C and heap_insert: 33957.768 ms

So switching to prepared plans helped quite a lot, but it's still slower than direct heap_inserts.


Humm... You are right, I misread what it before, sorry. The 33957.768ms was with heap_insert.

 
One thing that caught my eye:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION partition_insert_trigger_spi()
RETURNS trigger
LANGUAGE C
VOLATILE STRICT
AS 'partition_insert_trigger_spi','partition_insert_trigger_spi'
SET DateStyle TO 'ISO';

Calling a function with SET options has a fair amount of overhead, to set/restore the GUC on every invocation. That should be avoided in a performance critical function like this.


I (stupidly) used SPI_getvalue [1] and expected it to always return as YYYY-MM-DD, but them I remembered it would do that only with DateStyle=ISO.

But the truth is that I couldn't see any overhead, because the function was without that on my first tests, and after that I saw no difference on the tests. I think I should use SPI_getbinvalue instead, but I don't know how to parse the result to get year and month, any help on that?
