I am writing a procedure that loops through symbols and their phrases and prints them to an output file. One symbol and many phrases on a line. The cursors run quickly but the entire procedure takes 40 seconds. Is their a way to improve the speed. The procedure can be seen below.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE symbols_gram(login2 varchar2)
