Well, INSERT speed is really not very dependent on table size (else I'd
have inserted a few zillion rows before timing it). Personally I rather
like Tony's theory that you've gotten confused about what the timing
units are.

These are the sorts of details that you can't leave out if you want
an intelligent response.

Well, that brings up a whole host of questions, starting with whether
the PHP DB adapter you're using is any good. Can you replicate similar
timings if you feed the same query into plain psql?
