Okay lets try and narrow this down a bit.... Lets talk version of PRO*C not Oracle (Is that not the relavant factor?)

Anyways, our version of Pro*C for use with Ora. 7 is 1.5.10.1 It generates code 5 times larger than that of Pro*C ver 1.4.13.0.1

Just run your proc in the /oracle7/proc/demo directory make -f proc.mk sample8

This generates 2meg in my newer version and 400K in the previous version.

Anyone care to continue this --- who has got a newer version of Pro*C that generates smaller code....
