Re: Benchmark Data requested

One of the problems with "Empty Table optimization" is that if there are
indexes created then it is considered as no longer empty.

Commercial databases have options like "IRRECOVERABLE" clause along
with DISK PARTITIONS and CPU partitions for their bulk loaders.

So one option turns off logging, disk partitions create multiple
processes to read various lines/blocks from input file and other various
blocks to clean up the bufferpools to disk and CPU partitions to process
the various blocks/lines read for their format and put the rows in
bufferpool if successful.
