Thanks, but no, it's using ip, and after the connection has been established etc. the 3500ms it the total query time on windows vs 800ms on linux. Same server, so I think it is related to libpq implementation on windows. I also get the same results running XP in a virtualbox on a linux machine, while the linux host machine is getting 800ms.
