Hello Tom, >This previous post says that someone else solved an ODBC >performance problem with UseDeclareFetch=1:
I thought about that too, but enabling UseDeclareFetch will slow down the query: it takes 30 seconds instead of 8. >It's not immediately clear why pgAdmin would have the same issue, >though, because AFAIK it doesn't rely on ODBC. No it doesn't. That's the reason I used it to verify the behaviour. But I remember Dave Page mentioning using a virtual list control to display the results and that means a round trip for every tuple. >I just finished looking through our archives for info about >Windows-specific network performance problems. I don't think it's a Windows-specific problem, because psql is doing the job blindingly fast. The problem lies in the way my application is coded. See the response to Dimitri for details.
