Re: tracking scripts...

Now it's too late,
but maybe you could allow to not use a single transaction ( but instead
127k transactions).4

Then at the end of every transaction you could print something in gui
(print for pgscript, raise for plpgsql) or execute a command to write in a
file (copy for instance).
It would also be in the log, but not so clear.

Cheers,
