title: Performance Comparison of Stored Procedure written in Pl/SQL vs. Java
body: <p>After going through the discussion <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4288624/why-pl-sql-going-down/4298633#4298633">here</a> I have one more question now.</p>
  
  <p>Lets assume, there is an <strong>enterprise</strong> level application with million of user base and with millions of transaction each day. Performance vise, which would be better. </p>

  <li><a href="http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/10920_3337411_2/Oracle-and-Java-Stored-Procedures.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Java Stored Procedure</a> </li>
  <li>Or Oracle Stored Procedures (Pl/SQL)</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p><em>P.S: When i say <strong>enterprise</strong> application development, I meant it from developers point of view where we have different layers of abstraction. Testing frameworks. Automated Testing deployed on multiple blades and extensive debugging etc</em> </p>
