Re: [gdal-dev] why ogr oracle connection is so slow?

Giovanni,

Have you tried any GeoRaster read and write on your environment? 

Have you been able to compare the performance of Oracle/GeoRaster in GDAL against other alternatives?

The raster driver also uses Oracle's OCI dlls but the performance is balanced between fast loading and fast reading. 

Regards,

Ivan
