Fastest way to insert in parallel to a single table

If your looking to do this in code ie c# there is the option to use SqlBulkCopy (in the System.Data.SqlClient namespace) and as this article suggests its possible to do this in parallel.

Have you read Load 1TB in less than 1 hour?

1. Run as many load processes as you have available CPUs. If you have 32 CPUs, run 32 parallel loads. If you have 8 CPUs, run 8 parallel loads.
2. If you have control over the creation of your input files, make them of a size that is evenly divisible by the number of load threads you want to run in parallel. Also make sure all records belong to one partition if you want to use the switch partition strategy.
3. Use BULK insert instead of BCP if you are running the process on the SQL Server machine.
4. Use table partitioning to gain another 8-10%, but only if your input files are GUARANTEED to match your partitioning function, meaning that all records in one file must be in the same partition.
5. Use TABLOCK to avoid row at a time locking.
6. Use ROWS PER BATCH = 2500, or something near this if you are importing multiple streams into one table.

For SQL Server 2008, there are certain circumstances where you can utilize minimal logging for a standard INSERT SELECT:

SQL Server 2008 enhances the methods that it can handle with minimal logging. It supports minimally logged regular INSERT SELECT statements. In addition, turning on trace flag 610 lets SQL Server 2008 support minimal logging against a nonempty B-tree for new key ranges that cause allocations of new pages.
