two questions:

I thought copy was for multiple rows - is its setup cost effective for one row?

copy would also only be good for insert or select, not update - is this right?

Hello

try it and you will see. Depends on network speed, hw speed. But the most fast is using a COPY API

what is the best performance / best practices for frequently-used simple dml, for example, an insert

1. fast-interface

2. prepared statement calling "insert ..." with binary parameters

3. prepared statement calling "myfunc(..." with binary parameters; myfunc takes its arguments and performs an insert using them
