Seems like a kernel bug to me. All modern TCP stacks have shortcuts for local connections. What platform are you on exactly? (BTW, this is not an argument against having JDBC support unix-socket connections; I can see security reasons for that. But there should not be performance reasons for it.) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
