Array interface

От

I sent 2 emails, both containing a Perl code sample, but none of them
went through. Essentially, I was testing Perl array bind & execute.
Everything went well, except for the fact that array execute is no
faster than the row-by-row way of executing things. I was surprised
because I expected array bind to produce better results over the network
than the row-by-row operations, yet it didn't.  Can anybody elaborate a
bit? It seems that some kind of email scanner has quarantined my emails
containing Perl code samples as dangerous, so I can't really show the
code sample.

While all of the bulk-execute functions are likely to have
implementations, they are not necessarily likely to actually be
efficient implementations.

I ran into this with DBD::ODBC a while back because DBD::ODBC
implements execute_array() as "execute($_) foreach(@_)".  DBD::Pg
doesn't appear to implement execute_array() at all, so perhaps it's
falling back on a similar default implementation in the superclass.

I generally suspect this is a Perl problem rather than a Postgres
problem, but can't say more without code.  Maybe try pastebin if
you're having email censorship issues.

So do I. I had the same situation with Oracle, until John Scoles had the
DBD::Oracle driver fixed and started utilizing the Oracle array interface.

I posted it to comp.databases.postgresql.
