Given
nrows processed inmbatches, currently3nstatements are sent to the DB for updates:BEGIN,UPDATE,COMMIT. If the updates were wrapped in a transaction, then it would only sendn + 2mupdates.On a local postgres table with 40000 rows, batch size 1000, anonymizing a single email field.
Before changes: 2m 52s
With transactions: 2m 26s (15% faster)
I'm not sure if this would have undesired effects for others, so maybe this should be configurable?
