Message-ID: <B2DC72F71B99474B8CCA0C3611AAC2A81486D4@correo.super.gov.bo>

No Blobs, No Longs, No BFILE, only VARIANT, FLOAT AND INTEGER (14 fields), direct load. Pentium IV, 2,5 MHz. Then... What is the problem?

Thank you,

Huascar

2.5 million records takes 2.5 hours? Man, you're doing something seriously wrong.
How many MEMO fields do you have? What are you loading them into? Blobs? Longs?
BFILE? As for SQL*Loader, if you were doing parallel and direct load into a NOLOGGING
table, and if the stuff you were loading consisted of short numeric/textual fields,
the whole thing would be loaded in less then 10 minutes on a 400 MHZ PC using
the sorry excuse for an operating system, produced near Seattle, WA.
