PRB: Performance Issues with SQL Server OLE DB Provider When Working with BLOB Data Types
This article was previously published under Q281268
The Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (SQLOLEDB) is slower in inserting or updating BLOB data types such as
text,
ntext, or
image when compared with the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers (MSDASQL).
Use the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers (MSDASQL) for BLOB data types when working with SQL Server.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Create a table in a SQL Server database with a column of type text, ntext, or image.
- Insert or update a row with approximately 5 megabytes (MB) or more of data into the BLOB column.
- Compare the performance of SQLOLEDB with MSDASQL.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server 7.0
- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server 7.01
- Microsoft Data Access Components 2.1
- Microsoft Data Access Components 2.5
- Microsoft Data Access Components 2.6
