Re: performance tuning in large function / transaction

Hi all,
 I will try to assign more memory to shared memory,
say 50M ~ 100M . 
 I am runing something like that ..
 cursor loop 1  cursor loop 2    cursor loop 3    tmp = primary key     delete tmp ....    insert tmp ....   end loop 3
end loop 2 end loop 3
 

will delete and insert record with same primary key
within a transaction reduce the performance ?

M.T.
