I am maintaining such an application and it is neither bulky nor slow. It's all
a matter of implementation.
Just an example: with the enhanced batching in Oracle's current JDBC driver
(yes, I know this is an Oracle list) I can even achieve the same import speed as
SQL*Loader when importing flat files.
Btw: coming from a Java world, I do consider HSQLDB and Derby belonging to the
list of "standard databases"
