Mike,
  when it comes to writes, the lob storage params are important.
  Run your tests with the nologging as the storage params for the lobs.=20
  The writes will be faster, potentially, much faster.
  The reads will be slower as nologging =3D=3D nocache.

Subject: Update of Clobs *Performance*


Hi all,

I have a developer who is trying to use PL/SQL to update all of the
CLOBS=20
of a specific table (nightly basis).  I am looking for advice on how to=20
speed up the performance for this process. SQL tracing the process shows

the following before I cancel out.

call     count       cpu    elapsed       disk      query    current=20
rows
------- ------  -------- ---------- ---------- ----------=20
----------  ----------
Parse        1      0.00       0.00          0          0          0=20
    0
Execute  19913   5116.93    5266.76   99893046  101038562          3=20
    1
Fetch        0      0.00       0.00          0          0          0=20
    0
------- ------  -------- ---------- ---------- ----------=20
----------  ----------
total    19914   5116.93    5266.76   99893046  101038562          3=20

Thanks



Table_A (141,000 rows, no indexes)
tabA_char  VARCHAR2(10)
tabA_clob   CLOB

Table_B  (145,000 rows, no indexes)
tabB_num  number
tabB_clob   CLOB

Procedure
declare
v_clob varchar2(32500);
v_id varchar(10);

cursor cont_rep_clob is
select tabA_char, tabA_clob
from Table_A;

begin
open cont_rep_clob;
loop
fetch cont_rep_clob into v_id, v_clob;

exit when cont_rep_clob%NOTFOUND;

update Table_B
set tabB_clob =3D v_clob
where to_char(tabB_num) =3D v_id;

commit;

end loop;
close cont_rep_clob;
