How do you target them directly? By implementing the
"trigger-equivalent-code" in the application code tuple by tuple, or
by pre-segregating the tuples and then bulk loading each segment to
its partition?
What if you get rid of the partitioning and just load data to the
master, is that closer to 4 hours or to 1 hour?

8288 randomly scattered writes per second sound like enough to
bottleneck a pretty impressive RAID. Or am I misreading that?
