I'm only familiar with SSIS (I have a hammer, everything looks like a nail), so I'll only speak to that. <br />
<br />
Couple of possibilities:<br />
1 &nbsp;Use a <a href="http://www.jasonstrate.com/2011/01/31-days-of-ssis-raw-files-are-awesome-131/" rel="ugc">Raw File Source</a>, which does not parse or translate the data, to optimize for speed. <br />
2 &nbsp;Does this file represent a file you've loaded before, with a small subset of changes compared to the overall set? &nbsp;If so, consider asking the source to send you a change-only file.

1. I have 150 different files <br />
2. I have to load them one by one , each mapped to one unique table in database.<br />
3. I can use SSIS no issues.

Load flat Files in Database

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality. Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning.

Microsoft SQL Server

SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is a component of the Microsoft SQL Server database software that can be used to perform a broad range of data migration tasks. SSIS is a platform for data integration and workflow applications. It features a fast and flexible data warehousing tool used for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL). The tool may also be used to automate maintenance of SQL Server databases and updates to multidimensional cube data. SSIS replaced Data Transformation Services, which had been a feature of SQL Server since Version 7.0.
