Load data local infile vs Secure Copy

Recommended Posts

I'm getting a "server doesn't support command" error when I try to use the "LOCAL" keyword with load data infile. 

As a work around I've been using the unix secure copy command to move the file to the production server so that the LOCAL keyword does not have to be used.  The problem is the file is 3 gigs and it is going to take over an hour to copy the file over. If I had the ability to run LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE

would I save time or does mysql essentially have to perform what I am doing with scp.

 

Thanks in advance.
