Oracle vs. MYSQL Performance
629827Mar 22 2008 — edited Apr 2 2008Let me preface this by saying that I am very new to Oracle DBs. I rand a very simple test adding and selecting rows in a loop to see how Oracle compared to MYSQL. The results were not what I expected. Writing to a table with a sequence (auto increment in MYSQL) in batches of 10,000 rows (simulating what I will be using the database for) turned out a 350 insert per second number for Oracle. MYSQL was inserting at 5000+ per second for identical tables.
I know I am missing something here. How do you tune Oracle to get more performance? What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance
