Hi warehouse friends, I took a look at the adapter_extensions code for Postgres today - it's a great idea. I think the code you've got only works for loading files onto a file system accessible by the Postgres server? In a shared hosting environment this may surprisingly limited. I think most people would expect to be able to load files from anywhere visible to the client?
I have some Postgres sql code that permits bulk loading data via COPY, but using STDIN as the source, so you can feed it via a file on the client side, rather than from a server-accessible file. Of course it's not as fast as reading a file from a local SCSI array, but sending data to copy COPY over a network wire is way faster than any other remote technique I've found. I'm happy to post this code to the list or to the code maintainer if it's of interest. Just let me know!
