The speed problem lies in the fact that you're directly linking Paradox
to a SQL database. No matter what you do, if you don't separate Paradox
and Postgres you'll have issues because the BDE has to work out the SQL
statements. What you're seeing is one full transaction with commit per
record and that is very inefficient. Python's not going to help you
because it's still one transaction per record. What you want is ONE
transaction with a commit every 500 or 1000 records and you can only do
that with SQL, not Paradox.
