Re: libpq vs ODBC

So it means there will be visible impact if the nature of DB interaction is DB
insert/select. We do that mostly in my app.
Performance difference would be negligible if the query is server intensive
where execution time is far more than time taken by e.g. communication interface
or transaction handling.
Am I right?

In general, yes.

In degenerate cases when most of the work happens in the server, no.

You need to measure in the contents of your specific application.
