Question - how is your current overall CPU load while running jobs? If it isn't consistently high (i.e. over 80%) then your hardware question shouldn't revolve around the CPU and memory but needs to include your I/O subsystem as well.

No, moderators really aren't "grammar police" and shouldn't be. PM's to the really bad offenders haven't worked in the past, so all that is left is posting recommendations. It is the poster's right to ignore any such suggestions just as it is any reponder's right to ignore such posts.

OddJob - I am in the same camp as Ray and I'm not a native English speaker. I believe using SMS-like English is an abuse of the English language that doesn't belong in a professional forum such as this one. I've stopped being as active as Ray in mentioning abuses of the written language. What I have...

Add a reject link to your oracle write stage and put that into a peek statement, then examine the SQL code to find out why the rows are being rejected.
