To upsert or to merge. Sparked a lot more emotion than I would have anticipated.
Both ideas, have similiar functionality, they solve marginally different problems. Both have the objective of reducing client server traffic involved with pk. Merge -- bulk loading foreign data -no guaranty upsert -- insert or update row w/confidence. Peter, please add the upsert as intended. After you finishing this objective, if you would kindly consider working on merge, you'd please everyone ;) Upsert adds a feature, I think more of us can identify and would enable interactive performance gains. Merge would save some fewer ppl a lot of development effort, for when its time to perform merge, more development effort is required. I've worked around (the lack of) both features, so I understand the passions that arise. The features are similar, I would request YOUR additional effort to add Merge after Upsert.
