Hello there,
I use PostgreSQL 9.1
The scenario is:
I receive heavy insertion into Table1 (about 100 rows a sec). For
each new entry, I have to check it with the previous and next ones
(check if those items are inside an area using ST_DWithin). Depending on
the result, what I need to do is: use the new entry (joining another
table) to insert/update into new table.
My Questions are:
I used to use Trigger to do the checking and insertion/updating. the header is
as follows:CREATE TRIGGER ts_trigger
AFTER INSERT
ON table1
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE test_trigger();But I don't think it's the efficient way to
do it.
I'm inserted in using batches. I'd like to understand the technique but cannot
find a good resources for this.
Some advise me to use temp table, but I don't think it would be useful in my
case.
