Because MySQL does not have native bulk load support, the MySQL driver emulates bulk load using the standard batch mechanism. See Using a DDBulkLoad Object for more information.

Only one connection property affects how bulk load works with the MySQL driver (see the following table).

Table 1. Summary: Bulk Load Properties for the MySQL Driver
