Hello Chris,
I'm a tad puzzled here. What I'm hearing is that the thin driver is
actually an applet that gets downloaded to each client and then communicates
directly with oracle through sockets. If this is true, not only would the
thin driver be much slower, it would also be unsuitable for web apps that
have their databases behind a firewall. Also, if your using Oracle 8.1.5,
you're tied into using jdk1.1.8 becuase oci8 drivers for jdk1.2 are not
available yet. This is all proving true in testing, conversations with
Oracle tech support and Oracle's online documentation. Seems there's a
disconnect somewhere

They are faster, easier, and recommended by Oracle.
