Well, just as I thought I had this one pinned, my test results
have become wildly inconsistent, eroding all confidence in my
prior conclusions about DBI slowness, etc. I've seen at least
1000+ QPS performance via DBI/DBD::Pg, Pg, and C/libpq. I'm now
investigating the possibility of simple old intermittent I/O
congestion...
