I have the following scripts:

insert into table
select * from table2
;

So if use the about bulk statement in my application, and the table2 is big, say 10 million records, my concern is that it's going to fail because of the possible rollback segments failure. So then I have to use PL/SQL to create a cursor and commit every 50000 records. What's the disadvantage of this?Will it be much slower than a bulk insert?

Can I do it another way: create a stored procedure for this bulk insert, then pin this procedure in memory, does it still have RBS problem?

Anyone has similar experience?

Thanks in Advance,

Chris
