Hello,
we had problems with queries via dblink needing more than three times as long as without dblink on the same server.
Thishas been tested with v8.3.3 as well. Is this still an issue?:
http://cunha17.cristianoduarte.pro.br/postgresql/snapshots.en_us.php
"But the two suffer from a severe problem: they bring the whole result from the remote query into the local database
server."
Is anybody maintaining dblink (who?)?
Are there other solutions for connecting two dbs in the work (like synonyms)?
There is another "problem". It's difficult to compare the performance of the queries because the server is caching the
queriesand dblink is using the same cached querie results as well. Can you 'flush' the results or prevent the results
frombeing cached for being reused? Is Explain Analyze really 'stable' for comparing purposes?
Thank you very much,
Peter
