Performance issue when import data from a text file to oracle

You are using bind variables in the insert statement, aren't you?

I use prepared statment and the insert statement I used is "insert into ... values (v1, v2, v3..)". And v1, v2, v3 ... is variables which receive the data read from the text file. Is this what your "bind variables" mean? Thanks!
