Hi all,

Can anyone comment on past experiences with various postgres adapters? I am using the latest PoPy (201) and have just recently noticed psychopg. Is it better, faster, more reliable or any of the above?

Right now, psyco is more featureful. It will probably remain so. I don't think that speed is a problem with either. pysco is somewhat easier to install, since PoPy consists of two parts, a long running daemon, and an adapter that talks to the daemon. psyco had a problem with leaks for a while, but I think that has been completely resolved. Both continue to be under development; pysco seems more aggresive right now. I am still running PoPy, as, for what I am doing, I don't see any strong benefits from the psyco approach. But, YMMV, and I believe that it is fairly trivial to set BOTH up on your system and see which you prefer. (I strongly urge you to do this, especially if you do not have a lot of code. The earlier you can decide which is better for you, the easier it will be; connection strings are a pain to find and change.) pysco has current postgres 7.1 support. PoPy is hoping to have support for 7.1 by the end of the month. Jim Penny (current PoPy debian maintainer, who tries very hard to have an open mind)
