Re: Good performance? - Mailing list pgsql-jdbc

Rafal,

Performance of postgres running under cygwin isn't great.  Can you try
the same test on a different platform?  It also looks like you are
running in autocommit mode.  You should see a significant performance
improvement if you batch your commits in say groups of 1000 inserts per
commit.

thanks,
--Barry
