Adrian, your'e right, the real problem is the slow insert, I have many
devices reporting to the server and saving their state each minute so
there is a moment where i reach the limit of connections and the monitor
device send a exception and crash.
The table grows a lot, current have more than 13,000,000 records, plus
have many indexes, that the reason why is slow to insert That's why i
tried to use copy.
