Can this be true? How can this be? If it's optimized to manipulate data within the database, how can it be fast if it's interpreted (like that slow poke, Java)?

I see this on Connor's website www.oracledba.co.uk under explicit/implicit cursors, under pl/sql. What on earth?

Can someone elaborate, namely, Connor?? Please help me understand this... My "green" may be showing, but my gosh.
