Read the sticky post in the Performance Tuning section. Then have a look at the explain plan, if that doesn't give a clue trace the session and process the trace file with tkprof.

Put all inserts in a single INSERT ALL statement.
Do not execute 26000 statements.

If the data comes from a file use SQL*Loader and not INSERT statements.

What indexes, triggers and constraints do you have on the table?

How are you inserting the data? Do you actually have list of 26,000 Insert statements, or is this something else that you're not telling us.?

As I said, go to a big INSERT ALL one.

Where do you get this data from?

If you could use EXP to get the data out of the other table and IMP to bring it in (or even better EXPDP and IMPDP), then an import of this size should take about 30 seconds.

26000/(30*60) = 14.4 inserts per second
or 70 milliseconds per insert

Not entirely unreasonable.
Especially so if 1 complete network round trip is needed between client & server for every row.

Particularly if there were indexes or constraints on the table.

Basically, you've picked a really slow way to get your data into the database.

It will run a little quicker if you can execute this on the server, as you'll reduce your network overhead, but it won't make a massive improvement.

If you'd ever answered about the indexes, constraints and triggers I could give you advice about what to do with them, but you decided not to bother answering.
