If i use bind variables it is taking nearly 4min where as without bind
variables it takes only 20Sec to finish the job can you explain me the
concept in detail that will be great help.

2. will soft parse undergo latches.

3. where we have to use bind variables and where not.

Regards

Balu.

code fragment 1 is an example of *static sql* in an anonymous block.
Static sql is always using bind variables, it is hard parsed once, and
soft parsed never.
code fragment 2 is an example of *dynamic sql* in an anonymous block.
Dynamic sql can use bind variables, it is hard parsed at least once.
When you are using bind variables subsequent invocations will be soft
parsed, and when you are using hard coded literals *all* invocations
will be hard parsed.

Consequently you aren't comparing 'using bind variables' vs 'not using
bind variables', both snippets use bind variables.
You are comparing dynamic sql vs static sql.
Obviously the code in snippet 2 is inferior to the code in snippet 1,
and as the *table name* is *static*, whoever implementing this code
should be kicked out.

Obviously soft parses will undergo latches.
You could easily demonstrate this with Tom Kytes runstat tool.

This is why dynamic sql should be avoided, and bind variables should
be used everywhere.

Hi,

Thank's for your reply , but i am not clear with the concept what you
have mentioned

1. what is the diffrence between static sql & dynamic sql , that's
better if you give me some examples.

2. Every body says that we have to use bind variables , but in my
second example i am using bind variables but the performance is very
slow, then what is the use, where i am wrong in that can you pls
correct me.

Regards

Balu.
