A patch was recently submitted for oracle: http://dev.rubyonrails.com/ticket/564 I'd suggest at least reading the comments on some of the limitation on the adapter. Some suggestions have already been posted. I am unsure if the implementation allows for the recycle of prepared statements. I also don't know the implication to using hints. Maybe a 'add_hints' method is needed, as some shops still use them. . . not me . . .of course.
