getthis "real time" rather than the "pointless time"?<br /><br /> It's not "pointless time", it's the time taken to
executethe query<br /> and for libpq to tell pgAdmin it's done. That is typically what people<br /> want when
developingqueries that are used in other apps - they need<br /> to see how fast PostgreSQL actually executed it, but
notthe amount of<br /> time taken to transfer the data to the client which can vary wildly<br /> from client app to
clientapp, especially if running through an SSH<br /> tunnel.<br /><br /> -- <br /> Dave Page<br /> Blog:
