Just reading the whitepaper "PL/SQL Just Got Faster" from OTN, it seems like Oracle's done a fair amount of efficiency tuning of PL/SQL in 10g, both in math and in the code generator / PVM. For example, integer math has been moved from software libraries to hardware ops, resulting in a 2.5 - 3 times improvement in integer math speed (according to the paper).

So has Oracle abandoned it's pre-10g stance of "PL/SQL is dead -- convert to Java"?

Just curious if anyone's done any perf testing yet...
