Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> newbie question - still: please help
hi!
a DBA inteds to speed up a script that is looping and sending hundred thousands of sequential update statements like:
UPDATE ISIS_DOCAR SET STATUS = 2000 WHERE ID = n;
he suggests copying the table to a file, change it and then load it into the DB again. i am strongly convinced that this is nonsense.
what is the best way to go for a script like this, doing tons of updates? (except convincing him to swith to sell burgers)
thx
daniel
