I have seen pretty much the same effect, to test this I set up script that
copied in 10000 records at a time. The time it took for each copy
increased linearly (starting at about 2.0 seconds on my PII-233) by approx
0.5 seconds per 10000. That means that by the time you have 5 million
records it takes more than 4 minutes to insert 10000 records.
Yes, I checked, there were NO indices defined on the table.
