Seems kind of extraneous to me. I am guessing it would cause yet further
overhead with our foreign key checks.
My testing shows that the use of foreign keys on high velocity single
transaction loads, can cause easily a 50% reduction in performance. Why
add to that? What we need to be doing is finding a way to decrease the
impact of foreign key checks.
