Re: Insert Times

I tested this out and saw no improvement:

EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM one;
Seq Scan on one (cost=0.00..20.00 rows=1000 width=404) (actual time=0.04..0.50 rows=51 loops=1)
Total runtime: 0.75 msec
EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM one;
Seq Scan on one (cost=0.00..20.00 rows=1000 width=404) (actual time=0.06..0.50 rows=51 loops=1)
Total runtime: 0.64 msec

Hi,

My personal feeling on this is, that the long time taken for the first query
is for loading all sorts of libraries, JVM startup overhead etc.

What if you first do some SELECT (whatever), on a different table, to warm
up the JVM and the database?
