How long does iteration over 4-5 million rows usually take?

I have a script running to iterate over 4-5 million rows. It keeps showing
up in red in PgAdmin. It remains active.

How long does iteration over 4-5 million rows usually take?

David

Given that there is no real information provided in the problem
description there is no chance for an answer more detailed then; as long
as it takes.

4-5 million times as long as it takes to do one iteration ( if you’re doing it correctly)

I may not take quite that long because setup/teardown times might not be needed for each iteration.

Best,

Thanks, Karsten,

I would like the information to work planning purpose.

For work planning, create a temporary table, copy from a generated data
set, and test it out. It really depends. Normally, you don't iterate in SQL
since rows are assumed to be independent. You think about SQL in terms of
sets and let application code handle the data transfers. It also really
depends on the size of your tables, indexing, joins, and more. Basically,
there isn't really an answer but it isnt hard to test.

Please share the SQL query, schema, and sample data. If you are using a
third party script with a db connector, then the answer is much harder to
answer.
