RE: Turning off undo for one session

Thanks for the response, unfortunately the application requires the data
to be stored in the database, loading the files as BFILE type and then using
DBMS_LOB.READ is not possible.

Undo cannot be "turned off" because without commit/rollback capability, RDBMS can no longer manage resources and cannot observe ACID properties. What you can do is to load files as BFILE type, which, essentially, means that you are copying them to file system and just recording the pathname into the database. If you use DBMS_LOB.READ, then LOB blocks are protected by the transaction mechanism and there is nothing you can do.
