I have a DB where
this:
select 1 into
temporary table x;
runs quickly,
but
drop table
x;
takes many seconds
to run.
I don't know
why.
But:
begin;
select 1 into
temporary table x;
abort;
is very
quick.
Note the slow
dropping applies to automatic dropping of temporary tables when the connection
is closed.
I now "abort" all my
query sessions for speed.
I cannot reproduce
this on "template1" and it has not always been the case for my
DB.
