Re: [PATCH] Better Performance for PostgreSQL with large INSERTs

Here's the patch again, this time with a 128kB buffer size.

This gives us nearly the same gains (~7%) for the blob INSERTs,
and the additional memory usage (120kB) shouldn't really matter,
with "temp_buffer"s 8MB and "work_mem" 4MB defaults.

Making it configurable would give a much more complex patch --
so I suggest just using this fixed size.

Thanks!
