Oracle Database 11g new features

Oracle Database 11g adds significant new capabilities to all the major application development environments.

PL/SQL
New fully automatic "native" compilation of PL/SQL in the database delivers dramatic performance improvements. There is just one parameter to set to turn native compilation on. There is no need for a C compiler and no file system DLLs to manage. Dramatic performance improvements are achievable on the order of 50% - 100% faster for pure PL/SQL code and 10% - 30% faster for more typical applications containing SQL when compared to non-compiled code. Other enhancements include performance improvements for triggers, finer grained dependency tracking, dynamic SQL enhancements, and a more powerful performance analysis tool.
