I could not tell from the question whether this was network or not. I
agree in network then limiting execution probably is best. In embedded
I am not sure - I would not be surprised if doing 1000 in batch is
slower than just doing the executes.
In either case I really would stay away from string manipulation as much
as possible and also stay away from things that create very long SQL
statements like 1000 term values clauses.
i agree completely. Let the driver do the heavy lifting :-)
