Hi people,
I need to write an algorithm for processing large amounts of data. I want to write a function on PgAdmin 3 to solve my problem. I need to know what language should be used, C or PL/PgSQL?
Needless to say, what I need is quickly. What language is faster, C or PL/PgSQL?
Hello, performance processing data is not 100% related to language, IMO is more related with algorithm.
You need to check your algorithm and order.
Answering your question i suggest you C could be some ugly but will be faster, in this point could be good read an opinion from any PG hacker.
