No! It'll take longer to just import the data into the RDBMS than your local system sort utility will take to complete. And after that, you've still got to index the data, perform the sorting query and output the data sorted. Allow for anything from 5 to 10 times as long to achieve the final goal of sorted data in a single file on disk. Maybe more. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
