Without seeing your actual query (or a syntactically similar one, if there
are private details you can't disclose), it's difficult to say. In
general, though, a couple of thoughts come to mind:
Can you run it as a single COPY statement, instead of however many
individual INSERTS? Failing that, can you use the multi-row VALUES syntax
for your INSERT?
As an aside, this type of question is probably more suited for the
pgsql-sql list, rather than -admin.
