Streaming should be faster, so that's one reason to use sequel_pg. Streaming also only executes a single query on the database instead of multiple queries. I would recommend using sequel_pg in general due to the other optimizations it uses. I think either using cursors or stream should be safe in terms of not locking the whole table, unless you are using SELECT FOR UPDATE, but again, that's something you should test to make sure Thanks, Jeremy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sequel-talk" group.
