(Either that or Oracle does compression on some of the data.) SQL 2005 does have an option to compress some data types as I recall, but we haven't used it yet.

I still love this job, so I won't do that. :D @ Michael, we're still 32-bit for most things here, but the import process was still a lot quicker than DTS. Well, up until the drive filled up. Apparently data takes up more space in MSSQL land? It was an ISCSI drive, so easy enough to expand. :) LOL @ John. I still love this job, so I won’t do that. :D

SSIS is way faster than DTS, at least on a x64 install of Windows and SQL 2005. Oracle (PL/SQL) can be annoying when you are used to SQL (T-SQL) though.
