Pfister & Vogel

Image
Pfister & Vogel ( P&V ) was an American tannery business in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Frederick Vogel emigrated from Wurtemberg, Germany to Milwaukee. In 1848, he founded a tannery on Milwaukee's Menominee River. Having also emigrated from Wurtemberg in 1845, Vogel's cousin Guido Pfister opened a shoe store on nearby West Water Street. They joined forces as the Pfister & Vogel Leather Company in 1853, and their company thrived, becoming one of the largest leather producers in the country. [1] August H. Vogel was vice-president of the company until his death. The company changed hands several times. Its last owners, U.S. Leather Company, shut it down in 2000. [2] Their buildings have been readapted for residential use. [3] See also Charles F. Pfister A.L. Gebhardt & Co. Vogel State Park Fred R. Zimmerman Menomonee Valley References ^ Woods, Clif F.

What would happen if I run two SQL commands using the same DB connection?

Image
1 I'm writing a program to run mass calculation and output results into PostgreSQL. My platform is Windows Sever 2008, PostgreSQL 10. My program is written in C. The results would be produced group by group, finishing of each group will create an extra thread to write the output. Now since the output threads are created one by one, it is possible that two or more SQL input commands will be created simultaneously, or the previous one is under process when new ones call the function. So my questions are: (1) What would happen if one thread is in SQL processing and another thread called PQexec(PGconn *conn, const char *query) , would they effect each other? (2) What if I apply different PGconn ? Would it speed up? postgresql ...
