Preferably via JDBC, but by C/C++ if necessary.

Streaming being the operative word.

Tips appreciated.

Hi,

We granted our Java Loader to the Bizgres Open Source,
http://www.bizgres.org/assets/BZ_userguide.htm#50413574_pgfId-110126

You can load from STDIN instead of a file, as long as you prepend the
stream with the Loader Control file, for example:

for name in customer orders lineitem partsupp supplier part;do;cat
TPCH_load_100gb_${name}.ctl /mnt/<remote-host>/TPCH-Data/${name}.tbl.* |
loader.sh -h localhost -p 10001 -d tpch -t -u mpp; done

You can also run the loader from a remote host as well, with the "-h"
<host> being the target system with the Postgres database.

If you have terabytes of data, you might want to set a batch size (-b
switch) to commit occasionally.

Feel free to contact me directly if you have questions.

Thanks,

Frank

Jeff,

Not sure how much hacking you want to do, but the TelegraphCQ project is 
based on PostgreSQL:
