Good C++ for finance for newbie

Three people that are often very helpful to others have mentioned probably what a starter may all need:1) Hansi: Absolute C++ (highly recommended for a newbie)2) Kimosabe: Accelerated C++ (another amazing book)3) Cuchulainn: Thinking in C++ (it means 'Thinking in C++', and that's it!)

CPU Processing time

Thanks, people! Lets assume that each entry is 1K, and data is being loaded internally (ie no network involved). Is there an analytical way to approximately estimate the loading time?

CPU Processing time

A program written in C++ will load 100,000,000 entries from a text file into columns into a database.How long should that take on an Windows 7 64bit i7950@3.07ghz with 12gb of RAM?
