You have to give more info than that to get any meaningful advice . Unless you are just looking for some paid-support guy to contact you ;) And as this seems to be a .NET related problem, you may get a better answer from some dedicated list, maybe http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-interfaces/ ------------------------- Hannu

Are you using prepared statements? We have performance issues with prepared statements. If it is so, can you try without prepared statements? You can discuss this also in our forums: forums.npgsql.org Thanks in advance. -- Regards, Francisco Figueiredo Jr. fxjr.blogspot.com www.npgsql.org
