I'm testing different insert scenarios.

I was surprised to find that doing "insert into .. select * from .." from a 
large table is an order of magnitude slower than running individual 
"insert" commands for each row from a file. That is, if I load file -> 
table A with insert commands, then do "insert into B select * from A", the 
latter is 10x slower than the former.

Also, "create table B ... as select * from A" is impossibly fast. I'm 
guessing this is not touching the disk unless it's in a transaction, or 
something.

Are these results expected, or is something off?
