Wouldn't that be Ionians?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Only when they all visit the porcelain throne at the same time. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

While I wasn't using DbParameter.AddWithValue(..) but instead created them, set .DbType and .Value and then added them to the DbCommand, for strings, byte-arrays and numerics with precision/scale I wasn't initializing .Length, resp. .Precision and .Scale.
From this answer[^] by @jorgen_andersson I learned that I should do it: Knocked down a lengthy DB-insert from 139 to 86 seconds!
(If you're interested in the details the link Jörgen provided in his answer is worth a read.)
Thank you, Jörgen!

Very interesting actually. I always use AddWithValue as well. Guess I should rethink that. It hasn't been a big problem, though, because I've never had any inserts of that magnitude. 
Also interesting to know that you have a sock puppet account called "Foothill"...

Umm, that's a negative.  Proper handling of SQL parameterization seems to be a popular subject.
if (Object.DividedByZero == true) { Universe.Implode(); }

Repeat 100000 times, it adds up.
But yeah probably a bit underwhelming, You'll notice a difference the more complex the query is.

Remembered another reason for using Prepare.
It will complain on compilation if you have not defined sizes on all parameters.
|

Thank you, Jörgen! That will be useful indeed, even in my current project where I mostly have ad-hoc queries, but this way I can verify in development that all command-building parts initialize the sizes of parameters.

Actually I didn't. I thought I had when I first saw it, but apparently not. So, now I have and thank you for the hint. However, I'm puzzled as to why you would ask?

Because I checked your link, contained one upvote. Read it, and upvoted it, and the count remained one.
I scan the forum in a similar way for the same reason, and the green posts always draw some attention.

I had a good laugh at this, my DAL began life in the 90s, way before AddWithValue was invented. I specify the length and precision of each parameter (code generator).
I recently had a "discussion" with a young whipper snapper who wanted to change the DAL, this information would have shortened the length of the "discussion" dramatically.

The figures are even better than in my original message: That's the total time the insertion code takes to finish which also includes building the SQL statements. As I ran the time comparison I was so excited how dramatically it dropped that I totally forgot about that before I wrote the message

If wages drop, by definition this makes demand for goods and services drop - so if we automate everything and wages drop to zero then demand for anything except life essentials will drop to zero and there will be no reason for the robots to make anything.

Well, they will need to keep making robots and robot parts, to keep us enslaved.

Well, you're assuming that robots will gain intelligence and consciousness some day... 
But why would they ever do that? I has yet to happen to the human population...

They don't need to be that intelligent, just more intelligent than us.
