Possible to prevent transaction abort?

Hello all,

Is it possible to prevent Postgre from aborting the transaction upon a 
constraint violation?

Using JDBC if I catch the constraint violation and try another statement 
I get:

  /ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of 
transaction block/

I realize that I could set a save-point before every INSERT but that 
nearly doubles the processing time.  Since our application INSERTS many 
thousands of rows at a time we need maximum efficiency.  On Mysql (where 
this limitation doesn't exist) it's already only barely fast enough.  If 
we have to use savepoints with Postgre it might prevent us from making 
the switch.

Is there some mode flag I could set, either database or server wide?  
I've found Postgre to be wonderfully configurable so I'm crossing my 
fingers...



Much Thanks.
