Hi, When reviewing some pg_dump related code, I found some existsing code (getTableAttrs() and dumpEnumType()) invoke PQfnumber() repeatedly which seems unnecessary.
Example
-----
for (int j = 0; j < ntups; j++)
{
if (j + 1 != atoi(PQgetvalue(res, j, PQfnumber(res,
"attnum"))))
-----
Since PQfnumber() is not a cheap function, I think we'd better invoke
PQfnumber() out of the loop like the attatched patch.
After applying this change, I can see about 8% performance gain in my test
environment
when dump table definitions which have many columns.
Best regards,
