Hi,
I am trying to get better performance reading data from postgres, so I
would like to return the data as binary rather than text as parsing it
is taking a considerable amount of processor.
However I can't figure out how to do that! I have functions like.
function my_func(ret refcursor) returns refcursor AS
$$
BEGIN
OPEN $1 for select * from table;
return $1
END;
$$ language 'plpgsql'
There are queried using
SELECT my_func( 'ret'::refcursor); FETCH ALL FROM ret;
Is there any way I can say make ret a binary cursor?
Thanks
Ralph
