I personally strongly doubt this will make a diffenrence. Anyways I
think we might be looking at the wrong place. Here was my test:
1. drop/create table two fields (id int, f text) no keys
2. begin
3. insert 500k rows. every 50k get time get geometric growth in insert
time
4. commit

I am doing this via
type dump.sql | psql -q mydb

I rearrange:
every 50k rows get time but also restart transaction. I would ex

Guess what...no change. This was a shocker. So I wrap dump.sql with
another file that is just
\i dump.sql
\i dump.sql

and get time to insert 50k recs resets after first dump...
