Thank you Johann, you got me thinking! So if I have a bunch of records and some are existing in the tables already, I would have to go through each of them to perform a update_or_insert. Am I wrong to say that this method is resource intensive? Is there a way to ease the db load?
(And I understand this may be more a python question than web2py) An example would be adding tags to a post.
