you can pass in/out very large set of data inside a transaction by using temp tables. Temporary tables are one of the greatest features of SQL dbs. Here's one fact, it most often takes as long to transfer data from/to a query/function as it takes to execute it. By storing data on the server side, you shave that cost off. This is something most people don't think about when dealing with large sets of data. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
