"Improving SQL query performance using secondary indexes"

I have a very old copy of this document from 1997. I'm hoping to find newer version, if one exists, but the search facility on SDN is not working at the moment. Does anyone have a more up to date copy or link they can point me to ?
thanks,
Malcolm.

SQL Query not using Composite Index

Hi,
Please look at the below query:
SELECT pde.participant_uid
,pde.award_code
,pde.award_type
,SUM(decode(pde.distribution_type
,'FORFEITURE'
,pde.forfeited_quantity *
pde.sold_price * cc.rate
,pde.distributed_quantity *
pde.sold_price * cc.rate)) AS gross_Amt_pref_Curr
FROM part_distribution_exec pde
,currency_conversion cc
,currency off_curr
WHERE pde.participant_uid = 4105
AND off_curr.currency_iso_code =
pde.offering_currency_iso_code
AND cc.from_currency_uid = off_curr.currency_uid
AND cc.to_currency_uid = 1
AND cc.latest_flag = 'Y'
GROUP BY pde.participant_uid
,pde.award_code
,pde.award_type
In oracle 9i, i"ve executed this above query, it takes 6 seconds and the cost is 616, this is due to non usage of the composite index, Currency_conversion_idx(From_currency_uid, To_currency_uid, Latest_flag). I wonder why this index is not used while executing the above query. So, I've dropped the index and recreated it. Now, the query is using this index. After inserting many rows or say in 1 days time, if the same query is executed, again the query is not using the index. So everyday, the index should be dropped and recreated.
I don't want this drop and recreation of index daily, I need a permanent solution for this.
Can anyone tell me, Why this index goes stale after a period of time???? Please take some time and Solve this issue.

Hi David,
This is Sankar here. Thankyou for your reply.
I've got the plan table output for this problematic query, please go thro' it and help me out why the index CURRENCY_CONVERSION_IDX is used now and why it's not using while executing the query after a day or inserting some records...

SQL query performance difference with Index Hint in Oracle 10g

Hi,
I was having a problem in SQL select query which was taking around 20 seconds to get the results. So, by hit and trail method I added Index Oracle Hint into the same query with the list of indexes of the tables and the results are retrieved with in 10 milli seconds. I am not sure to get How this is working with Indexes Hint.
The query with out Index Hint:
select /*+rule*/ FdnTab2.fdn, paramTab3.attr_name from fdnmappingtable FdnTab, fdnmappingtable FdnTab2, parametertable paramTab1 ,parametertable paramTab3 where FdnTab.id=52787 and paramTab1.id= FdnTab.id and paramTab3.id = FdnTab.id and paramTab3.attr_value = FdnTab2.fdn and paramTab1.attr_name='harqUsersMax' and paramTab1.attr_value <> 'DEFAULT' and exists ( select ParamTab2.attr_name from parametertable ParamTab2, templaterelationtable TemplateTab2 where TemplateTab2.id=FdnTab.id and ParamTab2.id=TemplateTab2.template_id and ParamTab2.id=FdnTab2.id and ParamTab2.attr_name=paramTab1.attr_name) ==> EXECUTION TIME: 20 secs
The same query with Index Hint:
select /*+INDEX(fdnmappingtable[PRIMARY_KY_FDNMAPPINGTABLE],parametertable[PRIMARY_KY_PARAMETERTABLE])*/ FdnTab2.fdn, paramTab3.attr_name from fdnmappingtable FdnTab, fdnmappingtable FdnTab2, parametertable paramTab1 ,parametertable paramTab3 where FdnTab.id=52787 and paramTab1.id= FdnTab.id and paramTab3.id = FdnTab.id and paramTab3.attr_value = FdnTab2.fdn and paramTab1.attr_name='harqUsersMax' and paramTab1.attr_value <> 'DEFAULT' and exists ( select ParamTab2.attr_name from parametertable ParamTab2, templaterelationtable TemplateTab2 where TemplateTab2.id=FdnTab.id and ParamTab2.id=TemplateTab2.template_id and ParamTab2.id=FdnTab2.id and ParamTab2.attr_name=paramTab1.attr_name) ==> EXECUTION TIME: 10 milli secs
Can any one suggest what could be the real problem?

Purushotham

Sorry,
The right query and the explain plan:
select /*+rule*/ FdnTab2.fdn, paramTab3.attr_name from fdnmappingtable FdnTab, fdnmappingtable FdnTab2, parametertable paramTab1 ,parametertable paramTab3 where FdnTab.id=52787 and paramTab1.id= FdnTab.id and paramTab3.id = FdnTab.id and paramTab3.attr_value = FdnTab2.fdn and paramTab1.attr_name='harqUsersMax' and paramTab1.attr_value <> 'DEFAULT' and exists ( select ParamTab2.attr_name from parametertable ParamTab2, templaterelationtable TemplateTab2 where TemplateTab2.id=FdnTab.id and ParamTab2.id=TemplateTab2.template_id and ParamTab2.id=FdnTab2.id and ParamTab2.attr_name=paramTab1.attr_name)

How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance

Hi,
How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance
Thanks

How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance
Very simple answer, outdated statistics will lead optimizer to create bad plans which in turn will require more resources and this will impact performance. If index is fragmented ( mainly clustered index,holds true for Non clustred as well) time spent in finding
the value will be more as query would have to search fragmented index to look for data, additional spaces will increase search time.

SELECT QUERY BASED ON SECONDARY INDEX

Hi all,
CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO WRITE SELECT QUERY BASED ON SECONDARY INDEX.
IN WHAT WAY DOES IT IMPROVE PERFORMANCE.
i KNOW WHEN CREATING SECONDARY INDEX I NEED TO GIVE AN INDEX NO -iT SHOULD BE ANY NUMBER RIGHT?
I HAVE TO LIST ALL PRIMARY KEYS FIRST AND THEN THE FIELD FOR WHICH I AM CREATING SECONDARY INDEX RIGHT?
LETS SAY I HAVE 2 PRIMARY KEYS AND I WANT TO CREATE SEONDARY INDEX FOR 2 FIELDS THEN
I NEED TO CREATE A SEPERTE SECONDARY INDEX FOR EACH ONE OF THOSE FIELDS OR ONE SHOULD BE ENOUGH
pLS LET ME KNOW IF IAM WRONG

HI,
If you cannot use the primary index to determine the result set because, for example, none of the primary index fields occur in the WHERE or HAVINGclauses, the system searches through the entire table (full table scan). For this case, you can create secondary indexes, which can restrict the number of table entries searched to form the result set.
You create secondary indexes using the ABAP Dictionary. There you can create its columns and define it as UNIQUE. However, you should not create secondary indexes to cover all possible combinations of fields.
Only create one if you select data by fields that are not contained in another index, and the performance is very poor. Furthermore, you should only create secondary indexes for database tables from which you mainly read, since indexes have to be updated each time the database table is changed. As a rule, secondary indexes should not contain more than four fields, and you should not have more than five indexes for a single database table.
What to Keep in Mind for Secondary Indexes:

Can I refactor this query to use an index more efficiently?

I have a members table with fields such as id, last name, first name, address, join date, etc.
I have a unique index defined on (last_name, join_date, id).
This query will use the index for a range scan, no sort required since the index will be in order for that range ('Smith'):
SELECT members.*
        FROM members
        WHERE last_name = 'Smith'
        ORDER BY joindate, idIs there any way I can get something like the following to use the index (with no sort) as well:
SELECT members.*
        FROM members
        WHERE last_name like 'S%'
        ORDER BY joindate, idI understand the difficulty is probably; even if it does a range scan on every last name 'S%' (assuming it can?), they're not necessarily in order. Case in point:
Last_Name: JoinDate:
Smith          2/5/2010
Smuckers     1/10/2010An index range scan of 'S%' would return them in the above order, which is not ordered by joindate.
So is there any way I can refactor this (query or index) such that the index can be range scanned (using LIKE 'x%') and return rows in the correct order without performing a sort? Or is that simply not possible?

Or is that simply not possible?Come on. Index column order does matter. "LIKE 'x%'" actually is full table scan. The db engine accesses contiguous index entries and then uses the ROWID values in the index to retrieve the table rows.

Improving a query performance

Hello gurus,
We do use RSRT, ST03(expert mode) to check if a query is running slowly. what actually do we check there and how?
Can anyone please explain me how its done.
Thanks in advance
S N

Hi SN,
You need to check the DB time taken by the queries and the summarization ratio for the queries. As a rule of thumb if the summarization ration > 10 and the database time > 30% then creating an aggregate will improve the query performance.
BY summarization ration i mean ratio between the number of records read from the cube to the number of records displayed in the report.
Thx,
Soumya

hi..
My SP is as above..
I connected this SP to dataset in SSRS report..as per my logic..Portfolio contains many Programs and Program contains many Projects.
When i selected the ALL value for parameters Program and Project..i'm unable to get output.
but when i select values for all 3 parameters i'm getting output. i took default values for paramters also.
so i commented the where condition in SP as shown above
--------where TSK.ProjectID=@Project-------------
now i'm getting output when selecting ALL value for parameters.
but here the issue is performance..it takes 10sec to retrieve for single project when i'm executing the sp.
how can i create index on temp table in this sp and how can i improve the query performance..
please help.
thanks in advance..
lucky

How can i know if my query is using the index ?

Hello...
How can i know if my query is using the index of the table or not?
im using set autotrace on...but is there another way to do it?
thanks!
Alessandro Falanque.

Hi,
You can use Explain Plan for checking that your query is using proper index or not. First you need to check that Plan_table is installed in your database or not. If it is not there THEN THE SCRIPT WILL BE LIKE THIS:
CREATE TABLE PLAN_TABLE (
STATEMENT_ID VARCHAR2 (30),
TIMESTAMP DATE,
REMARKS VARCHAR2 (80),
OPERATION VARCHAR2 (30),
OPTIONS VARCHAR2 (30),
OBJECT_NODE VARCHAR2 (128),
OBJECT_OWNER VARCHAR2 (30),
OBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2 (30),
OBJECT_INSTANCE NUMBER,
OBJECT_TYPE VARCHAR2 (30),
OPTIMIZER VARCHAR2 (255),
SEARCH_COLUMNS NUMBER,
ID NUMBER,
PARENT_ID NUMBER,
POSITION NUMBER,
COST NUMBER,
CARDINALITY NUMBER,
BYTES NUMBER,
OTHER_TAG VARCHAR2 (255),
PARTITION_START VARCHAR2 (255),
PARTITION_STOP VARCHAR2 (255),
PARTITION_ID NUMBER,
OTHER LONG,
DISTRIBUTION VARCHAR2 (30))
TABLESPACE SYSTEM NOLOGGING
PCTFREE 10
PCTUSED 40
INITRANS 1
MAXTRANS 255
STORAGE (
INITIAL 10240
NEXT 10240
PCTINCREASE 50
MINEXTENTS 1
MAXEXTENTS 121
FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 )
NOCACHE;
After that write the following command in the SQL prompt.
Explain plan for (Select statement);
Select level, SubStr( lpad(' ',2*(Level-1)) || operation || ' ' ||
object_name || ' ' || options || ' ' ||
decode(id, null , ' ', decode(position, null,' ', 'Cost = ' || position) ),1,100)
|| ' ' || nvl(other_tag, ' ') Operation
from PLAN_TABLE
start with id = 0
connect by
prior id = parent_id;
This will show how the query is getting executed . What are all the indexes it is using etc.
Cheers.

Improve data load performance using ABAP code

Hi all,
I want to improve my load performance using ABAP code, how to do this?. If i writing ABAP code in SE38 how i can call
in BW side? if give sample code to improve load performance it will be usefull. please guide me.

There are several points that can improve performance of your ABAP code:
1. Avoid using SELECT...ENDSELECT... construct and use SELECT ... INTO TABLE.
2. Use WHERE clause in your SELECT statement to restrict the volume of data retrieved.
3. Use FOR ALL ENTRIES in your SELECT statement to retrieve the matching records at one shot.
4.Avoid using nested SELECT and SELECT statements within LOOPs.
5. Avoid using INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF. Instead use INTO TABLE.
6. Avoid using SELECT * and select only the required fields from the table.
7. Avoid Executing a SELECT multiple times in the program.
8. Avoid nested loops when working with large internal tables.
9.Whenever using READ TABLE use BINARY SEARCH addition to speed up the search.
10. Use FIELD-SYMBOLS instead of a work area when there are more than 200 entries in an internal table where some fields are being manipulated.
11. Use MOVE with individual variable/field moves instead of MOVE-CORRESPONDING.
12. Use CASE instead of IF/ENDIF whenever possible.
13. Runtime transaction code se30 can be used to measure the application performance.
14. Transaction code st05 can be used to analyse the SQL trace and measure the performance of the select statements of the program.
15. Start routines can be used when transformation is needed in the data package level. Field/individual routines can be used for a simple formula or calculation. End routines are used when you wish to populate data not present in the source but present in the target.
16. Always use a WHERE clause for DELETE statement. To delete records for multiple values, use SELECT-OPTIONS.
17. Always use 'IS INITIAL' instead of equal to '' because null for a character is '' but '0' for an integer.
Hope it helps.

How to improve the query performance in to report level and designer level

How to improve the query performance in to report level and designer level......?
Plz let me know the detail view......

first its all based on the design of the database, universe and the report.
at the universe Level, you have to check your Contexts very well to get the optimal performance of the universe and also your joins, keep your joins with key fields, will give you the best performance.
at the report level, try to make the reports dynamic as much as you can, (Parameters) and so on.
and when you create a paremeter try to get it match with the key fields in the database.
good luck

How to write a SQL Query without using group by clause

Hi,
Can anyone help me to find out if there is a approach to build a SQL Query without using group by clause.
Please site an example if is it so,
Regards

I hope this example could illuminate danepc on is problem.
CREATE or replace TYPE MY_ARRAY AS TABLE OF INTEGER
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION GET_ARR return my_array
as
     arr my_array;
begin
     arr := my_array();
     for i in 1..10 loop
          arr.extend;
          arr(i) := i mod 7;
     end loop;
     return arr;
end;
select column_value
from table(get_arr)
order by column_value;
select column_value,count(*) occurences
from table(get_arr)
group by column_value
order by column_value;And the output should be something like this:

Why is this query not using the index?

check out this query:-
SELECT CUST_PO_NUMBER, HEADER_ID, ORDER_TYPE, PO_DATE
FROM TABLE1
WHERE STATUS = 'N'
and here's the explain plan:-
1
2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 | Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)|
4 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 | 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 2735K| 140M| 81036 (2)|
6 |* 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| TABLE1 | 2735K| 140M| 81036 (2)|
7 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8
9 Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
10 ---------------------------------------------------
11
12 1 - filter("STATUS"='N')
There is already an index on this column, as is shown below:-
 INDEX_NAME INDEX_TYPE UNIQUENESS TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME COLUMN_POSITION
1 TABLE1_IDX2 NORMAL NONUNIQUE TABLE1 STATUS 1
2 TABLE1_IDX NORMAL NONUNIQUE TABLE1 HEADER_ID 1
So why is this query not using the index on the 'STATUS' Column?
I've already tried using optimizer hints and regathering the stats on the table, but the execution plan still remains the same, i.e. it still uses a FTS.
I have tried this command also:-
exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats('GECS','GEPS_CS_SALES_ORDER_HEADER',method_opt=>'for all indexed columns size auto',cascade=>true,degree=>4);
inspite of this, the query is still using a full table scan.
The table has around 55 Lakh records, across 60 columns. And because of the FTS, the query is taking a long time to execute. How do i make it use the index?
Please help.

If the cardinality is really as skewed as that, you may want to look at putting a histogram on the column (sounds like it would be in order, and that you don't have one).
create table skewed_a_lot
as
 select
 case when mod(level, 1000) = 0 then 'N' else 'Y' end as Flag,
 level as col1
 from dual connect by level <= 1000000;
create index skewed_a_lot_i01 on skewed_a_lot (flag);
exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(user, 'SKEWED_A_LOT', cascade => true, method_opt => 'for all indexed columns size auto');Is an example.
