    Yes, very fast, for multiple tables, you can also open several windows and download different table simultaneously.

    Except, in most SAN environments, that will actually slow things down because you can't control which spindles will come into play and head-thrashing frequently becomes a performance problem for such loads. Even if parallel loads work very fast for today, they might not tomorrow.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
