Normand Savard added the Oracle support into the GDAL/OGR library 
(which I use and which has the severe slowdown).

Unfortunately the FGS build does not include the native Oracle 
support into the MapServer binary.

Including such support is a nightmare due license restrictions on 
the Oracle client, I think.
