We are strategizing a way to import a large number of records on a routine basis. I'll just skip all the details since they really are not relevant to the core question: Has anyone compared import speed between the EIE and using the "old school" arimportcmd command line process in order to import a flat file? I am just curious to see if there is a big advantage in speed either way. There certainly advantages to both tools for doing this particular data import but I have no idea how the speed compares and I don't have the EIE installed on this server (and I'd rather not if I don't have to).
