You expect the subsequent calls to benefit from the cached query parse
and planning. What does you query cost without begin wrapped in a
prepared statement (preferably from a cold start).
I thought that's what the PQprepare call was supposed to do i.e. parsing/planning.
It's a bit difficult to get an unprepared query cost since there are a lot of columns :(
#define INSERT_SQL "INSERT INTO t (<column names>) VALUES ($1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$10,$11,$12,$13,$14,$15,$16,$17,$18,$19,$20,$21,$22,$23,$24,$25,$26,$27,$28,$29,$30,$31,$32,$33,$34,$35,$36,$37,$38,$39,$40,$41,$42,$43,$44,$45,$46,$47,$48,$49,$50,$51,$52,$53,$54,$55,$56,$57,$58,$59,$60,$61,$62,$63,$64,$65,$66,$67,$68,$69,$70,$71,$72,$73,$74,$75,$76,$77,$78,$79,$80,$81,$82,$83,$84,$85,$86,$87);"
