Package fastsql is a library which extends Go's standard database/sql library. It provides performance that's easy to take advantage of. Even better, the fastsql.DB object embeds the standard sql.DB object meaning access to all the standard database/sql library functionality is preserved. It also means that integrating fastsql into existing codebases is a breeze. Additional functionality inclues: 1. Easy, readable, and performant batch insert queries using the BatchInsert method. 2. Automatic creation and re-use of prepared statements. 3. A convenient holder for manually used prepared statements.
