In half? not for me. Optimization possible? Sure, using the code you
pasted (time ./a.out 100000 <method>):
PQexec: 41s
PQexecPrepared: 36s
1 insert statement: 7s
COPY: 1s
psql: 256ms
Basically the above echoes the suggestions of others, use COPY if you can.
Find the source for the above attached. Its just a very quick
modified version of what you posted. [ disclaimer the additions I
added are almost certainly missing some required error checking... ]
[ psql is fast because the insert is really dumb: insert into aaaa (a,
b, c, d, e, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p) select 1, 'asdf', 'asdf',
'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf',
'asdf', 'asdf', 'asdf' from generate_series(1, 100000); ]
