logging= journalisation. namespace=espace de nommage (too) Translating would be easier with the full phrases however.

Here they are with the translation I used: - "prepared statements" (requêtes préparées) - "namespaces" (espaces de noms) - "table functions" (fonctions de table) - "logging" (?) As you can see that's pretty much just a literal translation. Any suggestions are welcome.

There are not always full sentences, but here are two (concerning the two
items for which I have had no answer yet):
" Table Functions
PostgreSQL version 7.3 has greatly simplified returning result sets
of rows and columns in database functions. This significantly
enhances the useability of stored procedures in PostgreSQL, and will
make it even easier to port Oracle applications to PostgreSQL."
Here is the question is how to translate at best "Table Functions".
"Prepared queries for maximized performance on common requests."
Here it's "prepared queries".
Thanks for the other answers.

I've not been real thrilled with "table functions" as English
terminology either ;-). Perhaps if you think of it as "functions
returning tables" or "functions returning multiple rows" it'd be
easier to translate.

What's actually getting prepared is a query plan. Perhaps "pre-planned
queries" would work?
