Will Postgresql ever implement an ignore on error feature when bulk
loading data?  Currently it is my understanding that any record that
violates a unique constraint will cause the "copy from" command to halt
execution instead of skipping over the violation and logging it - as is
done in Oracle and DB2.

Are there alternative ways of dealing with this scenario that won't
consume as much time?

Appreciate any help  - would love to migrate away from Oracle.

Cheers
