To be brutally frank, if you have to ask these questions you should not
be running TPC-H benchmarks, IMNSHO. You results are very unlikely to be
fair to you or to PostgreSQL.

TPC-H requires mild modification (took me about 15 minutes) to produce
postgres-ready output, which can be loaded via the COPY command, which
is designed for bulk loading data.
