The right way to do this with SPI is to prepare each insert-statement on
first invocation (SPI_prepare + SPI_keepplan), and reuse the plan after
that (SPI_execute_with_args).
If you construct and plan the query on every invocation, it's not
surprising that it's no different from PL/pgSQL performance.
