既然直接加载会产生少量的redo，那么再加入并行会并行的往表中插入数据，肯定速度会更快，即:

insert/*+append parallel(t,4)*/ into t

select * from t1;

到底结果是不是这样呢？请看例子：

sys@ORCL> alter session enable parallel dml;

Session altered.

sys@ORCL> alter session set sql_trace=true;

Session altered.

执行两条语句：

sys@ORCL> insert/*+append parallel(t,4)*/ into t

2 select * from t1;

9999 rows created.

sys@ORCL> rollback;

Rollback complete.

sys@ORCL> insert/*+parallel(t,4)*/ into t

2 select * from t1;

9999 rows created.

sys@ORCL> rollback;

Rollback complete.

下面是tkprof之后TRACE文件的输出：

可以看到两条语句的执行方式是一样，因此可以判断执行速度几乎是一样的。

这是因为INSERT使用并行时，Oracle自动使用直接加载的方式进行数据的加载，所以在这种情况下append提示是可以忽略的。
