Can you change this from INSERT-Statements to COPY? Copy is *much*
faster than INSERT.
If no, do you using all INSERTs in one transaction? I believe, a 'BEGIN'
and a 'COMMIT' around all INSERTs may increase the speed.
Performance increment can also be gained by disabling constraints in the
transaction. These disabled constraints are invoked at the end of the
transaction according to the SQL standard, so no worries about data
consistency.
Hmmm... PG currently supports disabling foreign constraints only. But that
can still be significant.
