What else I don't understand is that an update is so slow, whereas this
rvponp=# insert into tblTest (id, descpages) select oid, -pages from
tblPrintjobs ;
INSERT 0 622972
rvponp=# delete from tblTest ;
DELETE 622972
rvponp=#
takes about 1 minute for the insert, and 5 seconds for the delete.

I have the same problems on my OSX and other test machines.
It's frustrating. Even Microsoft Access is faster !!

You may have dead tuple bloat - can you post the output of 'ANALYZE
