Re: Compare sql and dynamic sql

If you change to using host variables in the insert statement then it could be faster since less CPU processing would occur on the server. (after the first statement). The I/O would be about the same in either case; but less CPU usage would allow things to scale better if that is a concern. insert into foo_1 values (:firstCol,:secondCol);
