-psycopg is a PostgreSQL database adapter for the Python programming
-language. It was written from scratch with the aim of being very small and
-fast, and stable as a rock. The main advantages of psycopg are that it
-supports the full Python DBAPI-2.0 and being thread safe at level 2.
-
-psycopg is different from the other database adapter because it was designed
-for heavily multi-threaded applications that create and destroy lots of
-cursors and make a conspicuous number of concurrent INSERTs or UPDATEs.
-Every open Python connection keeps a pool of real (UNIX or TCP/IP)
-connections to the database. Every time a new cursor is created, a new
-connection does not need to be opened; instead one of the unused connections
-from the pool is used. That makes psycopg very fast in typical client-server
-applications that create a servicing thread every time a client request
-arrives.
