This is correct but, you can turn logging off in some situations. If you are creating a table from a select in O7.2 or later you can use the unrecoverable options which turns off logging. Same with indexes I believe. Also if you are loading from flat files into a table use direct=yes to avoide logging.

These approaches require that you create/load as a single unit since there is no logging. The safest way to do this is to create a seperate table for each load and then create a view over them (see partitioned views) in O7.3

Hope this helps
