Hi all,

Anybody tried Oracle 10g Beta or has that installed on
his system.

I am very interested to know did Oracle speed up
XMLType insertion.

We stick with XMLType because developers like XPATH
search capability, but it looks that Oracle did it
very ugly.
Even choosing CLOB as a storage and all other
optimizations are no help because of nasty XMLType
constructor killing the performances.

Anybody did or needed to do insertion into XMLType
column at very high rate (>300 per second for up to
40k).

It looks that even 100 characters long XML cannot go
fast into XMLType at all.

My suspicious is the call to PL/SQL XMLType
constructor is killing everything.
Oracle did not make PL/SQL and SQL more tight yet or
XMLType constructor is just wrongly coded :)

Is it possible to have XMLType type/body compiled
natively into C?

I eliminated all waits somehow, but the CPU usage for
XMLType insertion is just too high.
Not sure what was Oracle thinking here with exposing
XMLType at all, to use it for low level application
needs probably.
Whatever they did with XMLType they did not do it
properly.

If anybody can try it on 10g R2 Beta I will be very
happy.

Thanks in advance.
