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
