Optimize Hibernate for the bulk insertion of related entities ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-1 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1 Project: Hibernate3 Type: New Feature

Components: core Environment: Hibernate 1.2, MySql 3.1 Reporter: Bradley Leupen Priority: Minor Attachments: bulk_insert.patch It is currently difficult to batch the creation of persistent entities that maintain associations with other entities. Add necessary api to hibernate to support the save or update of a collection of entities. An optimization can be applied in this scenario to group inserts / updates by entity class, or table. This will enable the hibernate engine to utilize batching if available, drastically improving performance over a network.
