1. Bulk-copy?

   Thomas Weholt <thomas@cintra.no> — 2000-06-02T06:08:33Z

   Hi,
   
   I need to insert about 2000-10000 records into a database. I`m using Python
   to do this. Is there a way to use some form of bulk copy that will do this
   faster than plain-old insert for each and every record?

   I don't know if there's python bindings for it, but you may want to look
   to at the COPY stuff in the manuals, it's helped me quite a bit.
