I've been working on a PGsql helper class to speed up the hotspots in my new pgsql PostgreSQL driver; so far it works rather well, and the performance of the new driver has leaped from 10% of the libpq module, to about 45% of the libpq module.
Well, I'm pleased to announce that the current version is 62% *faster* than the old libpq-Postgres module in the worst case, and even faster on large blob queries.
