There's a pg_bulkload extension which does much faster incremental index updates for large bulk data imports, so you get best of both worlds: http://pgbulkload.projects.postgresql.org/ Beware though, that this is an external addon and is not as well tested as core PostgreSQL. I have not tried it myself. Regards, Marti -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
