Thanks Rayudu.

Is there any other reson why flat file load is faster than
table load.

I had an interview and even I said the same answer. But the
interviewer asked me "Is there any other reason ?" .
Interviewer didn't satisfied with this answer.

I hope there will be some other reason as well for this
question.
Anyways thanks for your reply.
