Subject: drop tempoary table VERY slow
I have a DB where this:
select 1 into temporary table x;
runs quickly, but
drop table x;
takes many seconds to run.
I don't know why.
But:
begin;
select 1 into temporary table x;
abort;
is very quick.
Note the slow dropping applies to automatic dropping of temporary tables
when the connection is closed.
I now "abort" all my query sessions for speed.
I cannot reproduce this on "template1" and it has not always been the case
for my DB.
