Re: [PATCH v2 3/3] importer: Purge any redundant entries

Hello,

I had to revert this patch and the previous one.

For some reason, it is impossible to generate a new database although I made more processor cores and memory available to the system.

Please review this and try to find another approach that has less of an impact on the database system and that enables us to run a database update within about an hour.

Best, -Michael

When importing inetnums, we might import various small networks which are not relevant for us as long as they do not have a different country code than their parent network.

Therefore we delete all these entries to keep the database smaller without losing any information. The second version of this patch introduces a SQL statement parallelised across all CPUs available, while the DELETE-statement of the first version literally took ages to complete.

However, cleaning up those data still takes about 26 hours (!) on our location02 testing machine, making daily updates of the location database impossible to the current knowledge.

Special thanks goes to Michael for spending numerous hours on this, setting up a testing environment, doing PostgreSQL magic and providing helpful advice while debugging.

Partially fixes: #12458
