Hi, 

I have a partitioned table using hash. For the example lets say I have N
partitions.  Selects perform well due to the partitioning. However I noticed
that inserts and updates slow down considerably when the number of
partitions goes up. (I think because if needs to inspect / open all
partitions of the table)

Since hashing uses a modulo function I figured that if I inserted rows which
have the same modulo N in batches each batch of rows is inserted in exactly
one partition (correct?) 
I figured this would speed up inserts/ updates since only one partition
needs to be inspected for every batch. 

However, some measurements show me that this doesn't matter at all. 

Could anyone tell me what's incorrect in my thinking, or what I am missing, 

Thanks in advance,
Geert-Jan

BTW: I already asked this question, but wasn't sure the header asked the
correct question.
