Thanks Tom, I've now setup the fdw from a local postgres instance and
seeing similar timings for the selects and inserts.
I've got some more numbers here:
x (aurora aws eu-west-1) => y (gcp gce us-central-1): ~15 s
local (eu) => y: ~15 s
local (eu) => test 1 (postgres aws rds eu-west-1): ~4 s
local (eu) => test 2 (postgres google cloud sql, us-central-1): ~15s
local (eu) => local (eu): < 1s
SELECTs in all instances are sub-second.
To me this does indicate some sort of networking issue, but I'm
wondering if INSERTs are treated differently than SELECTs in
postgres_fdw? The only feasibly explanation I have is that postgres_fdw
does many more network calls for INSERT than for SELECT, e.g. something
like 1 for SELECT and `n` for INSERT?
Best,
Mats
