    Thanks.You haven't told us your database version.
    You haven't shown us the details of your table structure or an example of the data, or even how many rows is a "huge volume of data".
    Without proper information we would just be guessing and that doesn't help anybody.

    I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro, 2.2 GHz core i7 with 4 GB of RAM.

Is there any way to make it faster or improve it's function?

  • While using mac as wireless router ; How to make Mac sleep?

    Hi all.
    I set up my macbook to act as a wireless router [sharing it's wireless signal, via the "Sharing" settings in System Preferences]
    using this guide
    http://www.macinstruct.com/node/118
    I am wondering how to make my mac sleep while this wireless-sharing setting is enabled?
    Since I have enabled this setting, the mac will not sleep, however, the mac will sleep when I disable it.
    I am also wondering ; [if it is possible to make the mac sleep while this setting is enabled], can I still use the mac as a wireless router even while it is asleep?
    Or does it need to be awake to function as a router?
    Thanks very much in advance for any help!

    Thank you very much everybody for your answers.
    Dominic23
    and
    BobTheFisherman
    Yes, I kind of thought what you are saying would be the case.
    It makes "sense" that when the computer is asleep, so are all it's functions,
    but I *WISH* there was an option to keep the airport functioning even while the computer is asleep.
    Bob, I don't think having the OPTION to leave the airport on while mac sleeps would defeat the power-saving feature of the computer (:
    I know the "best" way to share wifi is with a router, but for me, a router just another piece of plastic I don't need. All I need to do is share wifi in a small space [my room] from my mac to my iPad and ipod touch.
    I like to use my ipad as a reader, and when I am reading, I may be sitting down for many hours just reading from the ipad. It doesn't make sense to leave the mac running during these long periods just for a wireless signal, so I may sadly buy a router ):
    Anyway, I get what you are all saying, and thank you for telling me the current limits of this function.
    Cheers! (:

  • How to make qry fast

    I have a small query
    select * from x order by b asc
    its very slow how can i make it fast as i have to order .

    "Small" is a vague, relative term. It's the volume of data that matters more I would think, and I'm guessing your table is "large" for the hardware you are running on. In any case, if you are truly doing the select to "push it in some target table" then I would say first off, you don't need the "order by" in this query. Secondly, if you are really trying to load data to a table, perhaps it is the insert that you don't show here that is the problem?
    Check out /*+ APPEND */ and /*+ PARALLEL */ hints just for grins.

  • How to make Mac Mini (Early 2009) sleep in Lion?

    After upgrading to Lion, my Mac Mini (Early 2009) stopped going to sleep from the Apple menu or from the keyboard. The problem has persisted with all point releases of Lion. The computer went to sleep with the same peripherals just fine under Snow Leopard.
    The display goes to sleep but the computer itself neither suspends nor hibernates. The power light is lit and doesn't pulsate. Measuring how many watts the device draws from the power socket shows that it's not sleeping. It wakes up so quickly that it must be only the display sleeping.
    Console log shows nothing when trying to sleep.
    Changing the hibernate mode from the default 3 to 25 makes no difference. Running the PleaseSleep app make no difference.
    How to put Mac Mini (Early 2009) to sleep (preferably hibernation--not just suspension) under Lion?

    Hello,
    Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem  & the Startup right after that for clues.
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • How to make this faster?? read millions of record from txt file

    Hi there,
    I got an issue. There is a txt file contains 2 million records, I also got another file contains over 10000 numbers. Now, I need to compare this 10000 numbers with that 2 million records if any records contains a number which belongs to 10000 number set, i retrieve this record and keep it. later on, when i finish the comparison i'll write all the result records into a txt file.
    What kind of data structure shall i use to keep the records and numbers? how to make the comparison quicker? Any idea will do!
    Thanks!

    if i were to do it, i will insert bout the records into the db. then do an sql statement on the two tables to get the results. Then get the rs and output it to another text file.
    just my opinion. not sure if this is faster.

  • How to make a faster connection to a database?

    Hi there,
    I have a created sth like an ebook reader for html books. I have a highlight tool and a textfield to keep some notes for each page. When the user goes from one page to there other I do connect and disconnect to the database 4 times. One to save the highlights of the page, one to save the notes and another to load these in characteristics to my new page.
    Acutally I do sth like this:
          //Save the highlights and the notes of the current page
          no.saveNotes();
          hi.saveHighToDB();
           // Load and display specified page.
           ViewClass.getEditorPane().setPage(pageUrl);
           //Load the highlights and the notes of the new page
           hi.loadingMakeHighlight();
           no.LoadNotes();This make my program very slow. It takes along time to load the new page. The whole program, database and book run locally so it should be faster 'cause afterwards I want to put in the book and the database on a server.
    Is there a way to make less connections or sth to make it faster??
    Is it better/faster to make 1 connection to save the 2 things and 1 to load them? The saveNotes() and LoadNotes() are in the same class and the saveHighToDB() and loadingMakeHighlight() are in a different one. How I can solve this?
    Thanks in advance

    You need a connection pool so you can recycle connections. This will speed things up tremendously!

  • Painfully slow startup - any suggestions how to make it faster?

    Hi Everyone,
    Just thought I'd ask people - my 17" iMac G5 1.9GHz PowerPC with 512MB ram is painfully slow at start-up. Seems to take forever! Does anyone know how I could clear a lot of rubbish from my computer and someone make it faster.
    Would anyone recommend a complete re-install - would that improve speed?
    Any help appreciated, cheers,
    Mark

    Mark, you can clear space on your drive and speed it up by moving a lot of sound and video files to a DVD, or even better, to an external; Firewire drive that you can partition and also use as a clone boot disk.
    Go through your applications folder and look for stuff that you never use, then get AppZapper to remove all traces of them. You can also use Monolingual to remove the tons of extra languages installed with Word and OS X, just make sure you uncheck English and any other language you might use.
    Hope some of this helps,
    Miriam

  • Slow Equuim A200 - How to make it faster?

    Help!
    My Equium A200 has gone really slow. Keep getting not responding messages on internet.
    Even typing this is very slow. Im not very knowledgeable about computers but do keep security updated.
    Please help me if there is anything I can do.

    There are a lot options to make Windows faster.
    I can give you some examples:
    1. Check the msconfig: start =&gt; run =&gt; msconfig.
    At startup you can see all programs who started with the notebook. Remove the tick from the programs, they should not startup with Windows.
    2. Defragment your HDD: click on my computer =&gt; right click on the HDD =&gt; properties =&gt; tools =&gt; Defragment now.
    Defragmentation is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation in file systems.
    Which OS (operating system) do you use? If you use Windows Vista, install SP1. If you use Windows XP, install SP2 or SP3.
    In my opinion Windows OneCare is not really good. Choose an other security suite. I use for a lot of years Kaspersky. I had never problems with it and the system runs fast.
    To check how much RAM do you have, make a right click on my computer =&gt; properties and there you can see it.
    If everything doesn&rsquo;t help, you should reinstall Windows with the Recovery image from Toshiba. All drivers and tools are including.
    But if you do this, backup your data first. The HDD will completely erased.

  • How to make mac speak when logging on or waking up

    hi, i was wondring how you make your mac speak to you and say welcome or hello everytime you log on or wake it up.
    if anybody knows, plesae help.
    Thanks!

    A login greeting is simple.  Make a small application with Automator:
    1. Choose Application from the Automator template.
    2. Add one action: Run Shell Script.  In this action, replace cat with say welcome.
    Save the application and store it somewhere.  (The Applications folder is a good choice.)
    Open System Preferences, choose Accounts, then select the account you want to target.  In that account, select Login Items.  Drag your new application to the login item window to create a link to the file.  Close System Preferences.
    Each time that you login to that account, the application will run and the Mac will say "Welcome."   Once it becomes annoying, return to the Login Items to remove the link to your application.
    A spoken wake-up message is trickier, but it can be done.  See these discussions: https://discussions.apple.com/message/3240458 and http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20060908113605812, then get a copy of SleepWatcher, http://www.bernhard-baehr.de/.
