[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-453?page=co... ] Max Rydahl Andersen commented on HBX-453: ----------------------------------------- there is no such version... I guess you mean 3.2.0.CR ? The reason it is faster is that we use oracle specific sql queries to get the metadata so we don't wait for oracle's slow implementation in their jdbc driver. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
