I am using PostgreSQL through the command line. I have written a small application that retrieves me information from a database. I have figured most things I need to know out. But I have two questions I hope you guys can help me with.

Is there any command line script that can make the database run faster? Like vacuuming or something. I'm sorry to ask what is surly a very simple question. But everything is hard to the very inexperienced.

I also wonder if it is possible to make command line searches case insensitive? Like when I write WHERE name='PHIL' I want it to be the same as WHERE name='phil'.

This things would be great if they are possible.

Thanks for taking your time to read my email through!
Best Redards,
S.E.
