CLI actually implies that an application handles the data on a parcel by parcel basis and each parcel contains only one record - if
it fits in one parcel at all. This works well when you need to manipulate data on the finest possible level. If your task is to deal with
large data volumes, why not use the TD bulk utilities? They are likely to be faster.
