Yes. In fact, it will bring the database performance to the level that 
was common before batch inserts were implemented - but many peopled 
used that, even for large installations.

On the other hand, batch inserts needs a more robust database backend 
and connection - temporary table space for the database server, and an 
unbroken connection from the DIR to it are essential. Both have been 
known to cause trouble with out-of-the box setups of OS and MySQL (I 
don't know about PostgreSQL).
