It was slow for Glom too, so we found a way to optimize it:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=575235#c9

I still don't understand how the optimization works, but at least we
have actual code to do it:
http://git.gnome.org/cgit/libgdamm/tree/libgda/src/connection.ccg#n367
and here you can see the "public" (PostgreSQL) and "main" schema_name
strings that we used:
