That did it!!!  I was unware that GeoPackage’s are SUPER fast and that I could SAVE a CSV as a GeoPackage file. . There is no metho to create indexes though once I do this, but now it runs in about 2 min!  lol

Following raymond advice,

Move the CSV to a shapefile or geopackage and run the create spatial index on it.

If you have very complex polygons, use suvdivide to create smaller ones save it in shapefile or geopackage and run create spatial index on it.

https://docs.qgis.org/3.22/en/docs/user_manual/processing_algs/qgis/vectorgeometry.html#subdivide

I would try with a smaller subset of points to test the improvement speed before trying to run on the full dataset again.

Answering your question, yes I am pretty sure postgis is much faster than mssql, and yes I think most recent versions of PostgreSQL PostGIS make use of more than one core.

Good luck

In the format, are you talking about the shape or the CSV with 2million lines?

Some things to check:

* Is your data local?
* Is it in a fast file format? (for example .gpkg or .shp and not .csv or .geojson)
* Does the data have a spatial index?
* Is the geometry very complicated, like a huge multi polygon with thousands of vertices and islands? In that case, split it up in several polygons.

Hope this helps. Anyway, it should not need to take this long.

Raymond
