I am using PG 8.3 from Java. I am considering a performance tweak which will involve holding about 150 java.sql.PreparedStatment objects open against a single PGSQL connection. Is this safe?
I know that MySQL does not support prepared statements per se, and so their implementation of PreparedStatement is nothing more than some client-side convenience code that knows how to escape and format constants for you. Is this the case for PG, or does the PG JDBC driver do the real thing? I'm assuming if it's just a client side constant escaper that there won't be an issue.
