hello
i want to ask if the insertion of a record into a partion is slower than insertion it into a non partitioned table or not?
cuz sql has to decide to wich partion the record has to insert according to the partitioning key and is this decesion process is making insertion slower ?

It is somewhat slower, because the engine has to decide which partition to insert into.
The time is however negligable.

But you have advantage while selecting as your data will be stored in correct partition.
