How often are you going to be inserting all this data? Is it a one-time thing? Monthly? Weekly? I doubt optimizing for speed will matter unless you need to insert that much data once an hour or so.
Good ol' placeholders with multiple execute statements should do fine:
my @DATA = (
[ qw( foo bar baz ) ],
[ qw( foo1 bar1 baz1 ) ],
. . .
);
my $sql = q/
INSERT INTO table
(
col1,
col2,
col3
)
VALUES ( ?, ?, ?)
/;
# $dbh is an existing DBI connection
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($sql)
or die . . . ;
foreach my $row (@DATA) {
$sth->execute( @{$row} );
}
my $sth->finish;
---- I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
