When my (JDBC based) SQL client and the database server are on the same computer, I can store a 45MB file about 4 seconds, a 240MB file in about 20seconds When I do the same with a server on the (same) network, the 45MB take about 9 seconds, the 240MB take about 60 seconds. So yes, these numbers sound a bit surprising. > Could there be something about my methodology that is slowing things down? How far are your app server and the database server apart? Maybe it's just a case of a slow network Thomas -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
