>Then a prepare a different SQL statement for each connection that I call in a loop, the result of SQL 1 is a bind variable to SQL 2 and SQL 2 to SQL3... you probably get the picture. that loop is called about 100 000 times. I see a 7-8% gain with using 5 different connections instead of only one and reissuing SQLPrepare between each call. Beleive it or not, it's a lot faster (about 900-1000% gain) doing all my joins like that (completely manual via multiple request) than sending one big SQL statement with a 5 table inner join for Oracle (The Oracle database doesn't contain any indexes, and joins are made of 2 sometime 3 fields, each tables have at least 1 million reccords).

I'm not sure about your connections but to make code look like code enclose it in a

your code here as code followed by a
