Thanks Kris - that patch worked beautifully and bumped the insert rate from ~1000 entries/second to ~9000 e/s in my test code. Here's hoping it makes it into 7.5. I do have a little concern about what's happening in the back end during the copy - I suspect the entire table is locked, which may impact the performance when multiple clients are saving entries into the table. Anyone know if that's how COPY works? (For that matter, would that also be true of a transaction consisting of a set of inserts?)
