Very interesting to see you working on this project. I work a lot for
Enterprises and it makes a lot of difference when it comes to Oracle
with prepared statements and data binding. In case of loops etc. we
had find the performance difference to be in multiples.
I was just wondering how far this
Thank you so much for working on this feature. Prepared statement/
bind variable support is critical for Oracle projects, especially in
the (evil) enterprise world. I know that Rails isn't targeted for
large enterprise apps, but that doesn't mean it isn't targeted at
_enterprises_. Lots of smal

Just wondering, but is there any advantage to trying to manually
manage the execution plan cache? I know MSSQL-Server for example
caches the execution-plan of every parameterized Query (anything
executed with the sp_executesql stored-procedure), which means the
majority of ADO and ADO.NET based ap

Here's an update. I noticed that using prepared statements will indeed
make MySQL queries a bit slower. The unit tests in an unmodified Rails
edge source tree took 18 seconds. After adding prepared statements,
they took 28 seconds. I've been working on optimizing this since
yesterday evening, and

Yes. In your place I would contact Zach to get an update on his progress. If

It'll be somewhat slower than just throwing a SQL statement at the
