Gurus, Dev Env. - Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0, Windows 2000 server, Quest datafactory 5.5 to load sample data. How can I improve the Insert performance while loading data into two tables (a parent with one child)? If I am saving the generated data (1 Million rows) from datafactory into .CSV file it takes only 40 minutes , for the same volume it takes 2 hour if loading into Oracle tables. I have set COMMIT_WRITE = BATCH,NOWAIT to avoid log_file_sync Wait event. Arvind Kumar Associate Consultant Siemens Information Systems Limited e-mail : arvind.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxx
