It sounds like you should look into the COPY command, or, if you're adventurous, the pg_bulkload project. They might
getyou the speed you're after, if not quite the implementation. But if what you're really after is to manipulate the
tablefiles directly - and I'm not sure why that would be a goal in itself - then perhaps SQL isn't for you.
