RE: When will long datatype no longer be supported

More against LONG:
(1) Only one LONG column per table, not LOBs. (2) It's easier to manipulate LOBs than LONG, such as you can modify a piece of LOB etc. So this means easier to code.

Against LONG:

 5) Those are stored in-line and can easily become a performance headache (with chaining etc..)
