Use Bulk Binds

If SQL statements execute inside a loop using the collection elements as bind variables, context switching between the PL/SQL & SQL engines can slow down the execution. For illustration, the UPDATE statement below is sent to the SQL engine by every iteration of the FOR loop:

DECLARE

TYPE NumList IS VARRAY(20) OF NUMBER;

depts NumList := NumList(10, 30, 70, ...); -- department numbers

BEGIN

...

FOR i IN depts.FIRST..depts.LAST LOOP

...

UPDATE emp SET sal = sal * 1.10 WHERE deptno = depts(i);

END LOOP;

END;

In such situation, if the SQL statement affects five or more database rows, the use of bulk binds can improve the performance significantly. For illustration, the UPDATE statement below is sent to the SQL engine merely once, with the whole nested table:

FORALL i IN depts.FIRST..depts.LAST

UPDATE emp SET sal = sal * 1.10 WHERE deptno = depts(i);
