To the best of my knowledge, there is no limitation on the
number of records that can be loaded at a time other than the size of your
rollback segments. I have loaded 10's of millions of rows in a single sqlldr
job by setting some parameters. There are defaults
that work, but don't perform very well. To determine appropriate
settings, you may want to read an article I wrote for O'Reilly &
Associates (located at http://oracle.oreilly.com/news/oraclesqlload_0401.html) which
gives the step-by-step directions on setting 2 of the key parameters
(BINDSIZE and ROWS). It's a pretty easy thing to do, but without knowing
you data, the only advice I could give is that DIRECT is the best quick tuning
fix if you can.

i belive there is a limitation on the number of records that
can be loaded
from sqlldr at a time based on the bind array and rows
default parameter.
if i have a data file with more than 5000records(don't
know the exact
number) that needs to be imported using sqlldr
what is
the value i need to set for the "rows" and/or "bind array" for me to
load
the records to the table at one attempt.
thanks
