Why MultiLoad Utility supports only Non Unique Secondary
Index(NUSI) in the Target Table ?

Answer Posted / rajesh kumar s

MulitLoad has support for Non-Unique Secondary Indexes
(NUSIs) since NUSIs are AMP Local. They have subtable within
base table. It has no hash bucket to redirect to another
amp, everything points to their own amp (AMP Local)

If you go with USI, it has hash bucket, which might redirect
to another amp, more possibilites for full table scan.

Motive for avoiding Indexes(other thn NUSI): Avoid Full
table scan.
