Re: do i need to change the jar in case of new PostgreSQL installation

hi,
i have noticed a drop in the performance in delete operations after I ugraded from Postgres8.0.0 (32 bit server)
to Postgres 8.1.5 (64 bit server)
However I have not ugraded the jdbc jar, I am still using postgresql-8.0-310.jdbc3.jar
I wanted to ak if the drop is because I am still using the old jdbc driver?

thanks,
regard
Surabhi

It should work, though it's usually a good idea to use the latest driver.

Do you mean that you're getting less performance with a newer JDBC
driver version, doing a delete operation, than with the older 8.0-310
version? Or that you're upgrading you're server to 8.1.5 for better
performance?
