I don't think it will too much faster :-)
BTW, for example the Oracle allows to define default date/time output
format by same way as for to_char().
TODO (?):
SET TIMESTAMP_FORMAT = 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS';
SELECT 'now'::timestamp;
timestamp
----------------------------
01/05/2004 10:25:01
But it require check (be sure) that defined format is possible without
problems convert back from string to timestamp. For this Thomas didn't
like this idea.
I think dynamic timestamp format is final solution of all problems with
PostgreSQL date/time formats.
Comments?
