database storage of server logs

[Randy Terbush <ra...@zyzzyva.com>]

In case anyone is interested in the continuing saga...

I had originally attempted to load 15,000 requests from my
somewhat altered common log format into Postgres95 and found
that loading this data (without doing name lookups) took
1 hour.

Considering that to be somewhat rediculous...  I grabbed a
copy of David Hughes' mSQL-1.0.7 and gave the same thing a
try. Kudos to David... It only took 12 minutes.

rm -r postgres95

Thanks Randy.  mSQL-2 should be ready for public consumption in a couple 
of months (including much faster data handling code) and then we'll see some 
fur fly :)

That's the conclusion I came to with the  old Postgres too.
