RE: pgadmin3 incredibly slow over network

Hi Nikita,

Your message helped me to discover HeidiSql which is (for my needs), even
though its implementation for Postgres is experimental, much more convenient
as pgAdmin v4.x

It is not as “friendly” as pgAdmin III but is intuitive enough to accomplish
basic tasks.

Let’s hope that HeidiSql will remain a simple application and that they will
not try to change its interface to browser.

I was blocked with PostgreSql 9.6 because of pgAdmin compatibility.

Now, with HeidiSql, I can consider to upgrade.

@ Akshay Joshi

Sorry about it.

Your strategical decision to rewrite pgAdmin for browser was a mistake.

Every new release corrects probably some bugs but it remains hardly usable.

I do try every new release and have to fall back on pgAdmin III.

I follow the discussions and read about problems encountered by other
pgAdmin users. It is not encouraging at all.

I have reported a couple of bugs, mainly due to browser integration, which
have not been fixed and probably never will.

Regards

Subject: pgadmin3 incredibly slow over network

If I use pgAdmin3 to query a remote database with SELECT * FROM big_table,
the whole thing takes 1.5 minutes until I get my results.

If I run the same query, from the same computer, to the same remote
database, using a different client (HeidiSQL, or even pgsql), it takes 5
seconds.

I run pgAdmin 1.22.2 on Windows 10, and the postgreSQL database is on Linux.
The postgreSQL version is 9.3, but it doesn't seem to be specific to the

version. The same happens on 9.4. The large performance differences happen
in other queries as well, to various degrees of difference.

What could be causing this?
