Hi Wiktor,

In theory you should choose the approach based on which case occurs mostly -
if you are expecting 99% of inserts to fail as corresponding rows already
exist in database (and need to be updated instead) then better start with
update and if 0 rows found then insert. And vice versa, if you expect to
insert 99% of rows and only update 1% then better start with insert (and if
it fails then update).


-- In theory, you sould choose MERGE in such cases, no?
