how do most people import external data???

i'm importing web server logs into an orcale database.

Right now, I'm piping the log data into a Perl script that converts the file into a bunch of 'INSERT INTO' lines which I then pipe into SQL*DBA. This process is slow...I suspect that the file I'm tyring to import right now will be still doing so when I get back in to the office Monday morning.

Whats the fatest way to do this? Received on Fri Sep 13 1996 - 00:00:00 CEST
