observation...

Does anyone else find it irritating when someone posts a question to one of these oracle newsgroups and makes some inane statement like the following (culled from a post a week or so ago):

   'I have an application that runs lot's of queries and i'm finding that a lot

    of these queries take between 100-500 ms each where on ms sql server few

    querys are over 100ms
    Why is it that oracle is so slow? What can I do to speed it up.'

On the other hand, I find it amusing when one of us oracle folks gets our dander up about those statements and replies thusly:

    'Are you using bind variables? Probably not. Use bind variables.'

Just an observation that I felt like sharing.
