There is big table(only store temporary data) to be updated often in the
same procedure. I want to persuade the app team to change the table into
global temporay table. But I am not sure how much it will gain for this
change. Update on temporary table will not generate redo, but it will create
undo, so roughly I think it will only create half the redo as the normal
table. But for the test I did, the redo size varied a lot and I am not sure
we can get a perceivable improvement.


Thanks,
