OBSERVATION:-
With "set arraysize 1000" , Firing an SQL Query Directly from Oracle
Client SQL prompt over WAN onto DB Server takes 44 seconds.

With "set arraysize 1" , Firing same SQL Query Directly from Oracle
Client SQL prompt over WAN onto DB Server takes 5 minutes.

ISSUE - Our Application is a thick VB client which has all the business
logic is installed on a Win2k/XP Desktop PC. This Application connects
to the database server via SQL*Net i.e. Oracle client. This Application
Desktop & Database server(HP UX 11i Box) communicate over WAN.=20

Qs. How can "arraysize" parameter be set at the Application/Oracle
Client/DB level for ALL SQL queries intiated by the Application?

Using Oracle Client from windows Desktop (over WAN)
