The cpu on the remote server is being used up by psql, and my shell is local.

I am not sure if this is relevant, but I think it may depend on what kind of shell you are using. I use putty on windows XP, and it seemed to me that when I had the encoding set to Latin-1, it always pasted very fast, but when I had it set to UTF8, the paste would be slow. I concluded (perhaps wrongly--I have not tested much) that putty goes much slower when using UTF8.

Have you confirmed that psql is at fault, and not your shell? (I.e., try pasting directly to the shell--hopefully your query doesn't start with rm -rf / : )

How come when I paste a large query into psql it starts off fast but then slows to a crawl eating up cpu just echoing the query back to me? I'm using psql 7.4.7
