According to your original post, you do selects in step 1 and 2... Or
is this a different job and I've lost the thread (happens to me plenty
:) )
1. Selects about 20 Records from Table A (
- loops though the list and deletes in total about 50k records in Table B
2. For each record form Table A it then selects Records from Table C
- loops through these records about 50K in total
- for each runs a query 3 Tables, 10-20M records
- inserts a record in Table B .. about 50K
3. Returns some stats on the whole operation (100 records).
