[PERFORM] (pas de sujet)

2005-07-13 Thread Nicolas Beaume

Nicolas,

These sizes would not be considered large. I would leave them
as single tables.

Ken




ok, i though it was large but i must confess i'm relatively new in the 
database word. thank you for the answer.


Just another question : what is the maximal number of rows that can be 
contain in a cursor ?


Nicolas, having a lot of things to learn

[PERFORM] large table vs multiple smal tables

2005-07-13 Thread Nicolas Beaume

Hello

I have a large database with 4 large tables (each containing at least 
200 000 rows, perhaps even 1 or 2 million) and i ask myself if it's 
better to split them into small tables (e.g tables of 2000 rows) to 
speed the access and the update of those tables (considering that i will 
have few update but a lot of reading).


Do you think it would be efficient ?

Nicolas, wondering if he hadn't be too greedy
