Can you provide a small brief about the scenario, where exactly you want the bulk of sequences.
Just want to know, until now i didn't face this scenario in my dev.
Thanks,
Nirmal,

We had a situation like this - we wanted to get a large batch of sequences at
once with one "trip" to the database. We used a stored procedure that took an
argument "how many do you want" - and it used an execute immedate select nextval
into an array and passed the array back.
