everybody is focussing on "how quick to destroy" without
considering what follow on work RBG has to do after the
bomb drops.
It could be like taking over Kandahar, and leaving warring
tribes in control. You'd just be asking for trouble down
the road.

In my view a Truncate is always faster than a Drop. Also, the original
table structures of the table r preserved.

Hi Everyone!
I am trying to empty a database with some very large tables so I can import
it again.
Which is faster, truncating or dropping the tables?
Thanks in advance,
Ruth
