jg, I will disagree that committing within a loop is in and of itself
bad. While it is generally desirable to perform as much work as
possible before committing it is why the process is committing within a
loop, how often if commits while looping, and what type of processing
is being performed that determine if the commit is undesirable. This is
especially true in an environment with an undo tablespace large enough
to handle the user load and a retention period longer than the job in
question run time.
