* Slow performance on Windows .NET and OleDb

Hello,
I have just installed PostGreSql 8.1 on my Windows XP PC. I created a simple
table called users with 4 varchar fields.
I am using the OleDb connection driver. In my .NET application, I populate
3000 records into the table to test PostGreSql's speed. It takes about 3-4
seconds.
Even worse is displaying the 3000 records in a ListView control. It takes
about 7 seconds. In MySQL, the exact same table and application displays the
same 3000 records in under 1/2 second!!!
Why is PostGreSql so slow compared to MySQL? What do you recommend I do to
speed up? It is such a simple query and small database.

have you tried:
1. npgsql .net data provider
2. odbc ado.net bridge

Have you vacuumed recently? This smells like it might be a table bloat
problem.

This could be a lot of things...
He is probably running the default postgresql.conf which is going to
perform horribly.
What is your work_mem? shared_buffers?
Are you passing a where clause? If so is there an index on the field
that is subject to the clause?
When you do the population, is it via inserts or copy?

The query is,
select * from users
which returns 4 varchar fields, there is no where clause
Yes, I am running the default postgres config. Basically I have been a MySQL
user and thought I would like to check out PostGreSql. So I did a quick
performance test. The performance was so different that I thought PostGreSQL
was nothing compared to MySQL, but now it seems its just a few configuration
options. Strange how the defult config would be so slow...
I have begun reading the documentation but am not too sure what options I
can quickly tweak to get good performance, could somebody give me some tips?
Thanks

My english is poor but im gonna try to explain it:
Default configuration in postgres its not for good performance, its just
design to make it working in any computer. Thats why u have to try to
custom default config file.
Anyway, people says that mysql is faster (and lighter) than postgres (at
least with mysql 3.x vs postgres 7.4), but postgres is more advanced and
its much harder to get data corrupted.
But there is something that you should known about postgres. Postgres
creates statistics of usage, and when you "vacumm", it optimizes each
table depending of usage.
So:
- You should custom config file.
- You should vacumm it, as someone recomended before.
- Do u have any indexes? Remove it. To get all rows you do not need it
Note that I just have use it under Linux, i have no idea about how
should it work on Windows.

I wouldn't do that. Postgres needs indexing just like any other database.
It might affect this query but it's not going to help other queries.

3000 Rows - 7 seconds - very slow
Which client library may have a problem? I am using OleDb, though haven't
tried the .NET connector yet.
Network configuration?? I am running it off my home PC with no network. It
is P4 2.4 with 1 Gig Ram. Windows XP

Are those inserts encapsulated into a single transaction? If not, that's
the reason why it's so slow, every transaction sync()s through to the disk.

On my PC (athlon 64 3000+ running Linux), selecting 3000 rows with 4
columns out of a 29 column table takes about 105 ms, including time to
transfer the results and convert them to native Python objects. It takes
about 85 ms on a test table with only those 4 columns.
There is definitely a problem somewhere on your system.
I'd suggest running this query in an infinite loop. Logically, it should
use 100% processor, with postgres using some percentage (30% here) and
your client using some other percentage (70% here). Is your processor used
to the max ?

I just pulled out 100k rows in about 1/3 second. The problem is not
your postgresql configuration. Your problem is possibly in the oledb

You should run the select query from the psql utility to determine if
it's PostgreSQL, or your OleDb driver that's being slow. It takes like
185ms on one of my tables to get 7000 rows.

This problem was caused by the OleDb driver. I used a 3rd party .NET
provider and it worked, 8000 rows in just over 100ms!
Can somebody send me a sample connection string for the PostGreSql native
.net driver please? I'm battling to find a valid connection string.
Thanks

This is a blatant thread steal... but here we go...
Do people have any opinions on the pgsql driver? How does it compare
with the odbc in terms of performance? Is it fully production ready?
The boss wants to go .net (instead of Java, which is my preference...)
- will I have to spend my time defending postgres against
mysql/postgres/sqlserver?
Cheers
Antoine

It's very nice.
> How does it compare with the odbc in terms of performance?
I haven't measured specifically, but if you're tlaking .net it should be
better. It's all in managed code, so you won't pay the repeated penalty
of switching down to unmanaged and back all the time (the
.net-ODBC-bridge is known not to be very fast). As a bonus your program
will run in an environment where the CAS policy prevents native code.
And I've never had any performance problems with it myself.
> Is it fully production ready?
I beleive so. I've been using it for a long time with zero problems.
While I don't use many of the exotic features in it, I doubt most people
do ;-) Don't get scared by the claim it's in beta - IIRC there's an RC
out any day now, and it's been stable long before 1.0. But it's always a
good idea to browse through the list of known bugs and see if one will
likely hit you...

Up until a few months ago the npgsql driver was missing a few features
that made it easier to work with typed datasets in the IDE...I would
use the odbc driver to create the dataset at design time and work with
it at run time with the npgsql driver.
Lately though, it seems there is no reason not use the npgsql driver.
