We're not completely done with our data conversion (from a commercial
RDBMSi), but so far the results have been excellent. Similar to what
others have said in this thread, the conversion involved restructuring

Joe,
Your application is very interesting. I've just read your OSCON paper. I'd
like to talk more about that. Very similar to Kalido.
...but back to partitioning momentarily: Does the performance gain come from
partition elimination of the inherited tables under the root?
Best Regards, Simon Ri

I have a suspicion postgres's table inheritance will end up serving as a good
base for a partitioned table feature. Is it currently possible to query which
subtable a record came from thou

PostgreSQL's functionality is in many ways similar to Oracle
Partitioning.
Loading up your data in many similar tables, then creating a view like:

Googling 'upsert' (an Oraclism, I believe) will get you hits on Oracle

No, you shouldn't iterate row-by-row through the temp table.

With the appropriate indexes, this is pretty fast but I think a merge
would be much faster.
Problem is it's subject to race
Hi Joe,
You went to quite a bit of effort, thanks I have the picture now.
Using inheritence seems to be a useful refinement on top of the earlier
outlined aproach using the UNION ALL view with appropriate predicates on the
condition used to do the partitioning. Having the individual partitions

Why would postgres use a different query plan for declared cursors than
without?
I have a relatively simple query that takes about 150ms using explain
analyze. However, when I wrap the same query in a declared cursor
statement, the subsequent fetch statement takes almost 30seconds. For
