Re: Input and Output data traffic

Thanks for the insight Oswaldo, i'll give a look. Do you know the exactly
file path to enable the log? Does the pgAdmin3 have some support to show
this data?

About the cache theory:

I'm explicitly committing the insert instruction at every iteration, so I
don't think that's possible to cache all the inserts in one statement like
you did.

But I'll give a look anyway,

Thanks again,
