Performance issue with Export functionality in Discovere

Hi ,
I am running a discoverer report which is taking only 3 minutes to complete. But when we try to export it to Excel , it takes 2 hours.
There are only 1500 records to be exported.
Has anyone faced this type of issue ?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Pl post your version of Discoverer - are you exporting out of an EBS instance ? Does this work on other PCs or for other workbooks ? Pl see if these MOS Docs are helpful

Performance issues with pipelined table functions

I am testing pipelined table functions to be able to re-use the base_query function. Contrary to my understanding, the with_pipeline procedure runs 6 time slower than the legacy no_pipeline procedure. Am I missing something? The processor function is from [url http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=429]improving performance with pipelined table functions .
Edit: The underlying query returns 500,000 rows in about 3 minutes. So there are are no performance issues with the query itself.
Many thanks in advance.

Like:
- a database version
- how did you test
- what data do you have, how is it distributed, indexed
and so on.
If you want to find out what's going on then use a TRACE with wait events.

Performance issue with using MAX function in pl/sql

Hello All,
We are having a performance issue with the below logic wherein MAX is being used in order to get the latest instance/record for a given input variable ( p_in_header_id).. the item_key is having the format as :
p_in_header_id - <number generated from a sequence>
This query to fetch even 1 record takes around 1 minutes 30 sec..could someone please help if there is a better way to form this logic & to improve performance in this case.
We want to get the latest record for the item_key ( this we are getting using MAX (begin_date)) for a given p_in_header_id value.
Query 1 :
SELECT item_key FROM wf_items WHERE item_type = 'xxxxzzzz'
AND SUBSTR (item_key, 1, INSTR (item_key, '-') - 1) =p_in_header_id
AND root_activity ='START_REQUESTS'
AND begin_date =
(SELECT MAX (begin_date) FROM wf_items WHERE item_type = 'xxxxzzzz'
AND root_activity ='START_REQUESTS'
AND SUBSTR (item_key, 1, INSTR (item_key, '-') - 1) =p_in_header_id);
Could someone please help us with this performance issue..we are really stuck because of this
regards

First of all Thanks to all gentlemen who replied ..many thanks ...
Tried the ROW_NUMBER() option but still it is taking time...have given output for the query and tkprof results as well. Even when it doesn't fetch any record ( this is a valid cased because the input header id doesn't have any workflow request submitted & hence no entry in the wf_items table)..then also see the time it has taken.
Looked at the RANK & DENSE_RANK options which were suggested..but it is still taking time..
Any further suggestions or ideas as to how this could be resolved..
SELECT 'Y', 'Y', ITEM_KEY
FROM
( SELECT ITEM_KEY, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY BEGIN_DATE DESC) RN FROM
WF_ITEMS WHERE ITEM_TYPE = 'xxxxzzzz' AND ROOT_ACTIVITY = 'START_REQUESTS'
AND SUBSTR(ITEM_KEY,1,INSTR(ITEM_KEY,'-') - 1) = :B1
) T WHERE RN <= 1

Performance issues with FDK in large XML documents

In my current project with FrameMaker 8 I'm experiencing severe performance issues with some FDK API calls.
The documents are about 3-8 MBytes in size. Fortmatted they cover 150-250 pages.
When importing such an XML document I do some extensive "post-processing" using FDK. This processing happens in Sr_EventHandler() during the SR_EVT_END_READER event. I noticed that some FDK functions calls which modify the document's structure, like F_ApiSetAttribute() or F_ApiNewElementInHierarchy(), take several seconds, for the larger documents even minutes, to complete one single function call. I tried to move some of these calls to earlier events, mostly to SR_EVT_END_ELEM. There the calls work without a delay. Unfortunately I can't rewrite the FDK client to move all the calls that are lagging to earlier events.
Does anybody have a clue why such delays happen, and possibly can make a suggestion, how to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.
PS: I already thought of splitting such a document in smaller pieces by using the FrameMaker book function. But I don't think, the structure of the documents will permit such an automatic split, and it definitely isn't an option to change the document structure (the project is about migrating documents from Interleaf to XML with the constraint of keeping the document layout identical).

FP_ApplyFormatRules sounds really good--I'll give it a try on Monday. Wonder how I could miss it, as I already tried FP_Reformatting and FP_Displaying at no avail?! By the way, what is actually meant with FP_Reformatting (when I used it I assumed it would do exactly what FP_ApplyFormatRules sounds to do), or is that one another of Lynne's well-kept secrets?
Thank's for all the helpful suggestions, guys. On Friday I already had my first improvements in a test version of my client: I did some (not all necessary) structural changes using XSLT pre-processing, and processing went down from 8 hours(!) to 1 hour--Yeappie! I was also playing with the idea of writing a wrapper to F_ApiNewElementInHierarchy() which actually pastes an appropriate element created in a small flow on the reference pages at the intended insertion location. But now, with FP_ApplyFormatRules on the horizon, I'm quite confident to get even the complicated stuff under control, which cannot be handled by the XSLT pre-processing, as it is based on the actual formatting of the document at run-time and cannot be anticipated in pre-processing.

ERP Sales Order : Performance issues with Product Proposal

Hi
we are working on CRM 2007 solution and are facing serious performance issues with the ERP Sales Order functionality provided in the ICWC of this version.
In our development we are adding items in the ERP cart as soon as the user clicks on the 'New Sales Order' button of the sales order sreen. We get the items by very simple and optimized call to the ERP system and then add these entities in the Item Cart (Item collection ...in simple sense).
For adding 10 items the application takes 10 seconds and this is too much for adding just 10 items.
Can you please provide any Notes/alternative solution to resolve this issue.
Regards
Ajitabh

I would like to know whether any Standard Customizing BW transaction is present that is maintaining IT_PROPERTIES_RESULT table properties and fetching through this Function Module.
Also, suggest how this issue can be resolved

BPC 7 performance issue with Microsoft 2003 vs Microsoft 2007

Hi All,
Needs some help with our performance issues with BPC 7 on Microsoft 2007. We have noticed a significant difference between the two versions. When running the same report on BPC 7 MS 2003 it takes roughly around 5-6 min. When running the same report in BPC 7 MS 2007 the report takes roughly 15-20 min. We've tried numerous things to figure out what can be causing this but does anyone have the same issue or shed some light as to what i can do to eliminate this problem?
Thanks,
Elmer

Hi,
Did you install the following component on your application server (which is a prerequisite for running Excel 2007)? This note is part of the installation guide:
In order for the software to function correctly in Excel 2007, you must install the Microsoft Office 2007 system driver Data Connectivity Components, which you can get from the Microsoft web site. The components must be installed on the Application server. We recommend that you install all of the latest Microsoft Windows hotfixes prior to installing the Administration client. For information about which hotfixes to install, see http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7554F536-8C28-4598-9B72-EF94E038C891&DisplayLang=en.
Hope this will help.
Kind Regards,
Patrick

Performance Issue with Crosstab Reports Using Disco Viewer 10.1.2.48.18

We're experiencing Performance Issue (retrieving 40000 rows) with Crosstab Reports Using Disco Viewer 10.1.2.48.18 ( > 01 Minute , executing "Building Page Axis" or executing a Refresh).
Are there parameters to tun (in pref.txt file) , in order to reduce "Building Page Axis" execution ?
Note : We've got the same performance problem , using Discoverer Desktop 10.1.2.48.18.
Thank's in advance for your Help.

Hi
Well if the same issue occurs in both Desktop and Viewer then you have your answer. It's not the way that Discoverer is running the workbook its the way the workbook has been constructed.
For a start, 40000 rows for a Crosstab is way over the top and WILL cause performance issues. This is because Discoverer has to create a bucket for every data point for every combination of items on the page, side and top axes. The more rows, page items and column headings that you have, the more buckets you have and therefore the longer it will take for Discoverer to work out the contents of every bucket.
Also, whenever you use page items or crosstabs, Discoverer has to retrieve all of the rows for the entire query, not just the first x rows as with a table. This is because it cannot possibly know how many buckets to create until it has all the rows.
You therefore to:
a) apply sufficient filters to reduce the amount of data being returned to something manageable
b) reduce the number of page items, if used
c) reduce the number of items on the side or top axis of a crosstab
d) reduce the number of complex calculations, especially calculations that would generate a new bucket
If you have a lot of complex calculations, you should consider the use of a materialized view / summary folder to pre-calculate the values.
Does this help?

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

Thanks Kelly,
The answers would be the following:
1200 cells per custom section (NEW COUNT), and up to 30 custom sections per spec.
Assuming all will be populated, and this would apply to all final material specs in the system which could be ~25% of all material specs.
The cells will be numeric, free text, drop downs, and some calculated numeric.
Are we reaching the limits for UI performance?
Thanks

Performance issues with Homesharing?

I have a Time Capsule as the base station for my wireless network, then 2 Airport Express setup to extend the network around the house, an iMac i7 as the main iTunes Library and couple of iPads, and a couple of Apple TVs. Everything has the latest software, but I have several performance issues with Home sharing. I've done several tests making sure nothing is taking additional bandwidth, so here are the list of issues:
1) With nothing else running, trying playing a movie via home sharing in an iPad 2 which is located on my iMac, it stops and I have to keep pressing the play button over and over again. I typically see that the iPad tries to download part of the movie first and then starts playing so that it deals with the bandwidth, but in many cases it doesn't.
2) When trying to play any iTunes content (movies, music, photos, etc) from my Apple TV I can see my computer library, but when I go in on any of the menus, it says there's no content. I have to reboot the Apple TV and then problem fixed. I's just annoying that I have to reboot.
3) When watching a Netflix movie on my iPad and with Airplay I send the sound to some speakers via Airplay through an Airport Express. At time I lose the connection to the speakers.
I've complained about Wifi's instability, but here I tried to keep everything with Apples products to avoid any compatibility issues and stay within N wireless technology, which I understood it was much more stable.
Has anyone some suggestions?

Hi,
you should analyze the db after you have loaded the tables.
Do you use sequences to generate PKs? Do you have a lot of indexex and/or triggers on the tables?
If yes:
make sure your sequence caches (alter sequence s cache 10000)
Drop all unneeded indexes while loading and disable trigger if possible.
How big is your Redo Log Buffer? When loading a large amount of data it may be an option to enlarge this buffer.
Do you have more then one DBWR Process? Writing parallel can speed up things when a checkpoint is needed.
Is it possible using a direct load? Or do you already direct load?

Performance issues with the Vouchers index build in SES

Hi All,
We are currently performing an upgrade for: PS FSCM 9.1 to PS FSCM 9.2.
As a part of the upgrade, Client wants Oracle SES to be deployed for some modules including, Purchasing, Payables (Vouchers)
We are facing severe performance issues with the Vouchers index build. (Volume of data = approx. 8.5 million rows of data)
The index creation process runs for over 5 days.
Can you please share any information or issues that you may have faced on your project and how they were addressed?

Check the following logs for errors:
1. The message log from the process scheduler
2. search_server1-diagnostic.log in /search_server1/logs directory
If the build is getting stuck while crawling then we typically have to increase the Java Heap size for the Weblogic instance for SES>

Performance Issues with large XML (1-1.5MB) files

Hi,
I'm using an XML Schema based Object relational storage for my XML documents which are typically 1-1.5 MB in size and having serious performance issues with XPath Query.
When I do XPath query against an element of SQLType varchar2, I get a good performance. But when I do a similar XPath query against an element of SQLType Collection (Varray of varchar2), I get a very ordinary performance.
I have also created indexes on extract() and analyzed my XMLType table and indexes, but I have no performance gain. Also, I have tried all sorts of storage options available for Collections ie. Varray's, Nested Tables, IOT's, LOB's, Inline, etc... and all these gave me same bad performance.
I even tried creating XMLType views based on XPath queries but the performance didn't improve much.
I guess I'm running out of options and patience as well.;)
I would appreciate any ideas/suggestions, please help.....
Thanks;
Ramakrishna Chinta
