   I know that Oracle has extensive support for XML, but I can't seem to find   
   any documentation on using an XML document to do multiple inserts into a   
   relational table.  Note, I'm *not* trying to insert an XML document into an   
   XmlType column.  I just want to construct an XML document containing the   
   values for many rows, and then use this document to insert all of the rows   
   with a single INSERT command.  I want to do this for performance, because   
   doing many individual INSERTs in a loop in a stored procedure yields   
   unacceptable performance.   
      
   If anyone can help, I'd be very grateful.
