What do you want to achieve? If memory consumption is a concern, line by line appending is preferrable.

You can always do:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. open my $f1, '<', 'file1' or die "Couldn't open file1: $!";
  2. open my $f2, '>', 'file2' or die "Couldn't open file2: $!";
  3.  
  4. while ( read $f1, my $tmp, 131072 ) {
  5.     $tmp =~ s/OLDVALUE/NEWVALUE/g;
  6.     print $f2 $tmp;
  7. }
OTOH, that does not prevent "some value" from being split between two chunks...

I've been doing some experiments with speeding up copying tables of approximately 1 million rows between databases using BCP and BULK INSERT. I noticed that the total time for removing the indexes (non-clustered) and then recreating them after the BULK INSERT was significantly less than just doing the BULK INSERT with the indexes left there, even though I specified TABLOCK. I would have expected SQL Server not to update the index until...

We have created CSV files on HPUX 11.0 and transferred them via ASCII ftp to our SQL Server machine file store to load large amounts for data using the BULK INSERT command. This is the command: BULK INSERT db..table FROM 'S:\path\filename.csv' WITH ( DATAFILETYPE = 'char', FIELDTERMINATOR = ',', ROWTERMINATOR = '\n' )

I want to be able to generate SQL statements that will go through a list of data, effectively row by row, enquire on the database if this exists in the selected table- If it exists, then the colums must be UPDATED, if not, they must be INSERTED. Logically then, I would like to SELECT * FROM <TABLE> WHERE ....<Values entered here>, and then IF FOUND UPDATE <TABLE> SET .... <Values entered here> ELSE INSERT INTO <TABLE> VALUES <Values...

Right now I develop an application to retrieve over 30,000 records from a binary file and then load them into a SQL Server DB. So far I load those records one by one, but the performance is very poor: it takes more than 6 hours to finish the loading. So could I make use of the bulk-insert mechanism of SQL Server to reduce the loading time in C# codes? or other performance improvement solutions?

Hi, I have been searching but haven't had any luck finding a method of performing bulk inserts of data into Oracle comparable to using the BCP utility with MSSQL. In our MSSQL environment I typically prepare some file data using a perl script to parse and format the data into a comma-delimited format, then use BCP to bulk insert the records into the SQL database tables either manually or on a schedule. It works very efficiently. Is...

Hello, I have a db2load script I'm using to populate a large table. Ideally, my target table is required to have "Not Null" constraints on a number of different columns. I've noticed a huge performance hit when I load the target table with "Not Null" constraints as compared to loading a target table without the constraints.

I have written a stored procedure that is used to load data into a SQL Server 2000 and 2005 databases from some 40ish different text files.

The command I am using to load the data is as follows: BULK INSERT BasicDataT FROM 'E:\Temp\Food GNRLv3\BasicData.txt' WITH ( FORMATFILE =...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
