Regarding performance, the only thing I’ve found significant in my (very non-comprehensive) testing of just the features I use is that IF (and there are better choices, such as a C program) sqlplus (especially 12.2+ in a correctly chosen mode) is used to produce large output files it is significantly faster than sqlcl.  

Please do not take this as a slam on sqlcl. Neither of these products are really designed as giant output engines.  

I’m just noting it to avoid folks who switch from sqlplus to sqlcl and do create giant output files from thinking sqlcl is “slow.”

sqlplus is a little faster to start than sqlcl, but not something that I think would be deemed a show-stopper,

Wrote file S:\sqlplus_settings.sql

Jeff,  

Ah, it seems I found a bug: sqlcl can't find files from virtual drives mounted with subst command.

My S: drive was created with "subst S: n:\s" command and sqlcl auto-completion can't find files from S:\, though it can execute them.

But if I change directory to N:\s (original location), it works fine.

In my windows My Documents folder  

After starting sqlcl, I used the CD command to nav to that directory, so that’s where SQLcl is looking.

Jeff,  

I haven't understood, where are your lo* files located?
