Re: tracking scripts...

Wow, thank-you (sometimes the answer is right there in front of you... very
new to Postgres, had wondered what the difference was between the run query
and run as PGS script, but hadn't looked into it yet).

So, here's the critical question(s) right now (for me)...

With the way I launched it, using the "Execute query" button, if I now hit
the "Cancel query" button, what happens? Have the last two days of updates
already been committed? Or will they get rolled back? I would love to
switch to the other method, so that I can gauge progress, but would hate to
lose two days worth of run time...

If I do run the same script (a bit over 100k lines) in PGS mode, will that
affect the speed? If so, how much? 1%? 5%? More?
