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
