Does the program try to draw the entire table in one huge slurp? > 40000 0.375 0.000 39.282 0.001 main.py:872(get) > 40002 10.018 0.000 39.252 0.001 {method 'fetchone' of > 'psycopg2._psycopg.cursor' objects} Half of the time the program spends drawing rows one by one. This probably could be optimized by using fetchmany or fetchall. > 1840006 16.887 0.000 29.234 0.000 decimal.py:515(__new__) Third of the time - Decimal.__new__. There is something strange here (in the profiler output itself, I mean) - those Decimal calls are probably from DecimalCol.to_python, but the profiler didn't add those calls: > 1200000 1.856 0.000 2.769 0.000 col.py:1289(to_python) > 3362951 2.729 0.000 2.729 0.000 main.py:1673(instanceName) > 640000 0.999 0.000 1.471 0.000 col.py:657(to_python) My guess is that those Decimal.__new__ calls are inside DB API driver, and DecimalCol.to_python gets Decimal and returns it unchanged. This means that the lines > 40002 10.018 0.000 39.252 0.001 {method 'fetchone' of > 'psycopg2._psycopg.cursor' objects} > 1840006 16.887 0.000 29.234 0.000 decimal.py:515(__new__) should be read as follows: fetchone draws a row and converts values to Decimal, so 29.2 s are really a part of 39.2, and fetchone only waited for DB for 10 seconds. > 40000 0.214 0.000 23.323 0.001 main.py:912(_init) > 40000 10.475 0.000 23.069 0.001 main.py:1140(_SO_selectInit) _SO_selectInit is a rather simple function - it populates the row with values just fetched from the DB; the values are converted using calls to to_python. Those to_python calls are fast (if we ca believe the profiler) - see above. So where does _SO_selectInit spend its time?!
