Hi Jiho,

I think you cannot compare Update and UpdateBatch for one reason. Update
updates data in a recordset, but UpdateBatch transfers all the updated data
to the database. When you call Updatebatch, it actually calls Update to
apply all the current changes to the recordset.
You could compare performance of the UpdateBatch and SQL statements, like
INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE
