Access to Postgres

Hello,

We are in the process of migrating our Access back end to
Postgres. Our current version is Access 2000. Among other issues, the
reason for the change is to pick up some speed by way of server side
processing of queries.

As we proceed, we are running various benchmarks to observe any
improvements. We have not yet implemented any sprocs. Has anyone had
any experience in this (Access to Postgres) and if so, should we expect
any speed changes (up or down) before moving the queries? In other
words, we are so far, just running Postgres with the queries in the
front end.

Thanks,
Hank Reed

You should not expect any performance benefits. If anything, it could
be slower than before. Implement a few proof-of-concept queries as
sprocs, to see if you get better performance.
Repeat with MSDE (you already own it if you own Access 2000), and
compare.

mysql v4.0.16: I had been using mysql with innodb and thought that was fine, until i used it for something requiring a few - perhaps slightly involved - joins, and have now seen the performance become totally unacceptable. I have a query that takes over 35 seconds using mysql and innodb, for reasons that are completely a mystery to me, in a result set consisting of only a handful of items.

This thread was renamed. It used to be: "shared_buffers Question". The old thread kind of died out. I'm hoping to get some more direction by rephrasing the problem, along with some extra observations I've recently made. The core of the problem is that Postgres is filling up my hard drive with swap files at the rate of around 3 to 7 GB per week (that's Gigabytes not Megabytes) . At this rate it takes roughly two months to fill up my 40...

We have just recently migrated the data from our Access 2000 backend to Postgres. All forms and reports seem to run correctly but, in many cases, very slowly. We do not want to switch over until we can speed things up. We would like to start implementing Stored Procedures so we can do Server-Side processing. Can anyone recommend a book that would help us learn how to use sprocs or pass-through queries? I apologize if my terminology...

Hi folks, I would like to access a remote Postgres server from a Python program in a secure way. Postgres doesn't currently listen to the Internet for connections, and I'd prefer to keep it that way. I know how to forward ports using SSH, but I don't like doing this because then anyone who knows the port number can connect to Postgres over the same tunnel. (I'm not the only user on the client machine.)

Hello, I've got a problem inserting binary objects into the postgres database. I have binary objects (e.g. images or smth else) of any size which I want to insert into the database.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
