Buffers=n
Specifies the number of database buffers used for storing data
during the load operation. If no value is specified, the default
value for the database is used. (The default value for the
database is defined by the logical name RDM$BIND_BUFFERS, or
if the logical is not defined, can be determined by using the
RMU Dump command with the Header qualifier. The RDM$BIND_BUFFERS
logical name, if defined, overrides the value displayed with the
RMU Dump command.) Fewer I/O operations are required if you can
store as much data as possible in memory when many indexes or
constraints are defined on the target table. Therefore, specify
more buffers than allowed by the default value to increase the
speed of the load operation.
See the Oracle Rdb7 Guide to Database Performance and Tuning
for detailed recommendations on setting the number of database
buffers.
