Indexes slow you down, also check for triggers, etc. Waleed -----Original Message----- From: Viktor [mailto:stant_98@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 11:43 AM To: oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Sql loader taking too long! Hello, I was wondering if I could get some insights on how to speed up SQL loader. I am limited to user conventional path only - DIRECT has some issues due to the differences between OS's and ORA-02352 direct path connection must be homogeneous was an issue. But using conventional takes 3 hours table nearly 7 mil rows. Any ideas on how to speed it up? Thanks! --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
