Select stmt issue, performance tuning.

Hi Group,
I have a question.
There is a select stmt which is using inner join, and its taking good amoutn of time to get executed. I was told to tune the performance of that query. And my TL suggested me to use ranges in that select stmt, like the sign, option, low, high.
Could you please help me out on this issue? Urgent.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
P. Varun Kumar.

They are suggesting to use ranges rather than For all entries.
Here is the query:
SELECT b~kunnr
         b~zz_echan_reg
         a~title
         a~first_name
         a~last_name
         a~email_addr INTO TABLE gt_ecustomers
                      FROM zyd_contacts AS a
                     INNER JOIN kna1 AS b
                        ON ayd_kunnr = bkunnr
                     WHERE zz_echan_reg EQ 'X' OR zz_echan_reg EQ 'A'
                       AND zzcap_divert EQ space
                       AND email_addr   NE space.
Please check this out.
Thanks again for any help in advance.

Oracle Memory Issue/ performance tuning

I have Oracle 9i running on Window 2003 server. 2 GB memory is allocated to Oralce DB( even though server has 14GB memory)
Recently, the oracle process has been slow.. running query
I ran the window task manager. Here is the numbers that I see
Mem usage: 556660k
page Faults: 1075029451
VM size: 1174544 K
I am not sure how to analyze this data. why the page fault is so huge. and Mem usage is half of VM size?
How can I do the performance tuning on this box?

I'm having a similar issue with Oracle 10g R2 64-bit on Windows 2003 x64. Performance on complicated queries is abysmal because [I think] most of the SGA is sitting in a page file, even though there is plenty of physical RAM to be had. Performance on simple queries is probably bad also, but it's not really noticable. Anyway, page faults skyrocket when I hit the "go" button on big queries. Our legacy system runs our test queries in about 5 minutes, but the new system takes at least 30 if not 60. The new system has 24 gigs of RAM, but at this point, I'm only allocating 1 gig to the SGA and 1/2 gig to the PGA. Windows reports oracle.exe has 418,000K in RAM and 1,282,000K in the page file (I rounded a bit). When I had the PGA set to 10 gigs, the page usage jumped to over 8 gigs.
I tried adding ORA_LPENABLE=1 to the registry, but this issue seems to be independent. Interestingly, the amount of RAM taken by oracle.exe goes down a bit (to around 150,000K) when I do this. I also added "everyone" to the security area "lock pages in memory", but again, this is probably unrelated.
I did an OS datafile copy and cloned the database to a 32-bit windows machine (I had to invalidate and recompile all objects to get this to work), and this 32-bit test machine now has the same problem.
Any ideas?

Performance Tuning - Suggestions

Hi,
I have an ABAP (Interactive List) Program times out in PRD very often. The ABAP run time is about 99%. The DB time is less than 1%. All the select statements has the table index in place. Actually it isprocessing all the Production Orders (Released but not Confirmed/Closed). Please let me know if you have any suggestion.
Appreciate Your Help.
Thanks,
Kannan.

Hi
1) Dont use nested select statements
2) If possible use for all entries in addition
3) In the where addition make sure you give all the primary key
4) Use Index for the selection criteria.
5) You can also use inner joins
6) You can try to put the data from the first select statement into an Itab and then in order to select the data from the second table use for all entries in.
7) Use the runtime analysis SE30 and SQL Trace (ST05) to identify the performance and also to identify where the load is heavy, so that you can change the code accordingly

ABAP performance depends upon various factors and in devicded in three parts:
1. Database
2. ABAP
3. System
Run Any program using SE30 (performance analys) to improve performance refer to tips and trics section of SE30, Always remember that ABAP perfirmance is improved when there is least load on Database.
u can get an interactive grap in SE30 regarding this with a file.

Performance tuning techniques

I am looking to compile a list of the major performance tuning techniques that can be implemented in an ABAP program.
Appreciate any feedback
J

HI,
chk this.

Performance tuning for Data Selection Statement
For all entries
The for all entries creates a where clause, where all the entries in the driver table are combined with OR. If the number of
entries in the driver table is larger than rsdb/max_blocking_factor, several similar SQL statements are executed to limit the
length of the WHERE clause.
The plus
Large amount of data
Mixing processing and reading of data
Fast internal reprocessing of data
Fast
The Minus
Difficult to program/understand
Memory could be critical (use FREE or PACKAGE size)
Some steps that might make FOR ALL ENTRIES more efficient:
Removing duplicates from the the driver table
Sorting the driver table
If possible, convert the data in the driver table to ranges so a BETWEEN statement is used instead of and OR statement:
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_tab
WHERE mykey >= i_tab-low and
        mykey <= i_tab-high.
Nested selects
The plus:
Small amount of data
Mixing processing and reading of data
Easy to code - and understand
The minus:
Large amount of data
when mixed processing isnt needed
Performance killer no. 1
Select using JOINS
The plus
Very large amount of data
Similar to Nested selects - when the accesses are planned by the programmer
In some cases the fastest
Not so memory critical
The minus
Very difficult to program/understand
Mixing processing and reading of data not possible

Using table buffering
Using buffered tables improves the performance considerably. Note that in some cases a stament can not be used with a buffered table, so when using these staments the buffer will be bypassed. These staments are:
Select DISTINCT
ORDER BY / GROUP BY / HAVING clause
Any WHERE clasuse that contains a subquery or IS NULL expression
JOIN s
A SELECT... FOR UPDATE
If you wnat to explicitly bypass the bufer, use the BYPASS BUFFER addition to the SELECT clause.
Use the ABAP SORT Clause Instead of ORDER BY
The ORDER BY clause is executed on the database server while the ABAP SORT statement is executed on the application server. The datbase server will usually be the bottleneck, so sometimes it is better to move thje sort from the datsbase server to the application server.
If you are not sorting by the primary key ( E.g. using the ORDER BY PRIMARY key statement) but are sorting by another key, it could be better to use the ABAP SORT stament to sort the data in an internal table. Note however that for very large result sets it might not be a feasible solution and you would want to let the datbase server sort it.
Avoid ther SELECT DISTINCT Statement
As with the ORDER BY clause it could be better to avoid using SELECT DISTINCT, if some of the fields are not part of an index. Instead use ABAP SORT + DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES on an internal table, to delete duplciate rows.

VAL_FIELD selection to determine RSDRI or MDX query: performance tuning

according to on of the HTG I am working on performance tuning. one of the tip is to try to query base members by using BAS(xxx) in the expension pane of BPC report.
I did so and found an interesting issue in one of the COPA report.
with income statement, when I choose one node gross_profit, saying BAS(GROSS_PROFIT), it generates RSDRI query as I can see in UJSTAT. when I choose its parent, BAS(DIRECT_INCOME), it generates MDX query!
I checked DIRECT_INCOME has three members, GROSS_PROFIT, SGA, REV_OTHER. , none of them has any formulars.
in stead of calling BAS(DIRECT_INCOME), I called BAS(GROSS_PROFIT),BAS(SGA),BAS(REV_OTHER), I got RSDRI query again.
so in smmary,
BAS(PARENT) =>MDX query.
BAS(CHILD1)=>RSDRI query.
BAS(CHILD2)=>RSDRI query.
BAS(CHILD3)=>RSDRI query.
BAS(CHILD1),BAS(CHILD2),BAS(CHILD3)=>RSDRI query
I know VAL_FIELD is SAP reserved name for BPC dimensions. my question is why BAS(PARENT) =>MDX query.?
interestingly I can repeat this behavior in my system. my intention is to always get RSDRI query,
George

Ok - it turns out that Crystal Reports disregards BEx Query variables when put in the Default Values section of the filter selection.
I had mine there and even though CR prompted me for the variables AND the SQL statement it generated had an INCLUDE statement with hose variables I could see by my result set that it still returned everything in the cube as if there was no restriction on Plant for instance.
I should have paid more attention to the Info message I got in the BEx Query Designed. It specifically states that the "Variable located in Default Values will be ignored in the MDX Access".
After moving the variables to the Characteristic Restrictions my report worked as expected. The slow response time is still an issue but at least it's not compounded by trying to retrieve all records in the cube while I'm expecting less than 2k.
Hope this helps someone else

How to improve select stmt performance without going for secondary index

Hi friends,
I have a select statement which does not contains key fields(Primary index) in where condition. And I have to improve that select stmt performance without going for the secondary indexes.
Can you plese suggest the alternative way for this?.
Thanks in advance,
Ramesh.

Hi,
If , possible create a secondary index opf your own But if you have restriction on this, try to arrange the fields in where clause in the same order as they appear in the very table.
This will help the performance a bit.
Another issue, If your table doesn't contain any critical data or data in them are not updated frequently, you may go for Bufferring . it is a good alternate of Indexing with above limitations.
For details in bufferring , check, and all the sublinks.

Performance tuning Issue

Hi folks,
I having a problem with performance tuning ... Below is a sample query
SELECT /*+ PARALLEL (K 4) */ DISTINCT ltrim(rtrim(ibc_item)), substr(IBC_BUSINESS_CLASS, 1,1)
FROM AAA K
WHERE ltrim(rtrim(ibc_item)) NOT IN
select /*+ PARALLEL (II 4) */ DISTINCT ltrim(rtrim(THIRD_MAINKEY)) FROM BBB II
WHERE SECOND_MAINKEY = 3
UNION
SELECT /*+ PARALLEL (III 4) */ DISTINCT ltrim(rtrim(BLN_BUSINESS_LINE_NAME)) FROM CCC III
WHERE BLN_BUSINESS_LINE = 3
The above query is having a cost of 460 Million. I tried creating index but oracle is not using index as a FT scan looks better. (I too feel FT scan is the best as 90% of the rows are used in the table)
After using the parallel hint the cost goes to 100 Million ....
Is there any way to decrease the cost ...
Thanks in advance for ur help !

Be aware too Nalla, that the PARALLEL hint will rule out the use of an index if Oracle adheres to it.
This is what I would try:
SELECT /*+ PARALLEL (K 4) */ DISTINCT TRIM(ibc_item), substr(IBC_BUSINESS_CLASS, 1,1)
FROM AAA K
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT 1
    FROM BBB II
WHERE SECOND_MAINKEY = 3
      AND TRIM(THIRD_MAINKEY) = TRIM(K.ibc_item))
AND NOT EXISTS (
SELECT 1
    FROM CCC III
WHERE BLN_BUSINESS_LINE = 3
    AND TRIM(BLN_BUSINESS_LINE_NAME) = TRIM(K.ibc_item))But I don't like this at all: TRIM(K.ibc_item), and you never need to use DISTINCT with NOT IN or NOT EXISTS.
Try this:
SELECT DISTINCT TRIM(ibc_item), substr(IBC_BUSINESS_CLASS, 1,1)
FROM AAA K
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT 1
    FROM BBB II
WHERE SECOND_MAINKEY = 3
      AND TRIM(THIRD_MAINKEY) = K.ibc_item
AND NOT EXISTS (
SELECT 1
    FROM CCC III
WHERE BLN_BUSINESS_LINE = 3
    AND TRIM(BLN_BUSINESS_LINE_NAME) = K.ibc_itemThis may not work though, since you may have whitespaces in K.ibc_item.

Performance tuning SELECTs: Can I force a TRUE db read every time?

Good day everyone!
I've been programming in ABAP for almost 6 years now, and I'd like to begin learning more about performance tuning with respect to database performance.
More specifically, I'm testing some things in a particular SELECT in a report program we have that is timing out in the foreground because of the SELECT. When I first run the program, the SELECT goes against the database, as we all know. Subsequent runs, however, use the buffered data, so the response is a lot quicker and doesn't really reflect that first, initial database read.
Am I correct in assuming that I should be testing my various approaches and collecting performance runtimes against that initial, "true" database read? If that's the case, is there any way I can force the system to actually read the database instead of the buffered data? For those experienced with this kind of performance analysis and tuning, what's the best approach for someone very new to this area such as myself?
Thank you,
Dave

Hi Dave and Rob,
Just my two cents (and yes, I know this is already answered, but..).
I think you might be confusing 2 things: one is SAP buffering, and another one is caching at other levels (database, operating system, etc).
From what I understood Rob was talking mainly about SAP buffering. In that context it is true that if there is a first execution that loads the buffers (for example, some not so small fully buffered tables) then that is an atypical execution, and should be discarded. In real life you will never have execution times like those, except maybe on the very first execution on a monday morning.
Another thing is database caching. If you execute a report twice with exactly the same parameters then you might not be actually making physical reads in the second execution. This second execution will be very fast, but that will not be simulating real life: no user wants a report to be fast the second time you execute it with exactly the same parameters.
To avoid this in Oracle you can empty the so-called SGA, but that is not so useful and it will probably not get you closer to what happens in the real life.
So what to do? In doubt, measure it several times, with different parameters, and probably exclude the extreme values.

Rui Dantas

Performance tuning for Sales Order and its configuration data extraction

I write here the data fetching subroutine of an extract report.
This report takes 2.5 hours to extract 36000 records in the quality server.

Hello Jaya,
Will provide some point which will increase the performance of the program:
1.     VBAK & VBAP are header & item table. And so the relation will be 1 to many. In this case, you can use inner join instead multiple select statement.
2.     If you are very much confident in handling the inner join, then you can do a single statement to get the data from VBAK, VBAP & VBKD using the inner join.
3.     Before using for all entries, check whether the internal table is not initial.
And sort the internal table and delete adjacent duplicates.
4.     Sort all the resultant internal table based on the required key fields and read always using the binary search.
You will get a number of documents where you can get a fair idea of what should be done and what should not be while doing a program related to performance issue.
Also you can have number of function module and BAPI where you can get the sales order details. You can try with u2018BAPISDORDER_GETDETAILEDLISTu2019.

Privilleges for performance tuning

can we assign any specific privilleges to DBA for the performance tuning.
i dont want to give sysdba and sysopr privilleges to DBA.

The question should be why there is need to tune anything in Oracle database. What is the problem, have you defined the problem in a very clear manner ? Is there anything which is called problem or it is something other one ? What performance tuning tool you are going to use and why ?
Performance tuning is only two words, but it is very big topic; a topic on which 100 books / blogs have been written and still writing going on.
What and why are you trying to tune and what ORA you got ? As such there is no ready made role in oracle which says something like "PT_ROLE". We just issue the sql to the dictionary objects and as and when we gets privileges related error, we provides select on those sys objects to user; if he really needs though.

Updating results of a select stmt

Hello gurus,
Can anybody throw some light on the usage of the following update stmt, in terms of its perfomance ?
"UPDATE (<SELECT stmt>)
SET < column > = < value >
WHERE < column > < condition >"
In my case, the select stmt that I plan is use is a join of 6 tables & it looks something like this :
UPDATE (
select t2.order_id, t1.price,t5.discount, t4.original_price
from table1 t1, table2 t2, table3 t3, table4 t4, table5 t5, table6 t6
where t1.order_loc_id = t2.order_loc_id
and t1.prod_id = t4.prod_id
and t1.prod_id = t5.prod_id
and t5.id = t6.id
and t3.id = t6.hdr_nbr
and t3.order_id = t2.order_id
and round((t1.price+t5.discount),2) > round(t4.original_price,2)
and t4.invnm = 'INVN'
and t2.order_id = 6
) p
SET p.price = (p.original_price - p.discount)
WHERE p.order_id = 6;
I was wondering if this stmt would be hv any performance issue ?
Also, would all the tables in the select hv a lock on them ? (not quite sure how the table/row get locked) ?
Regards,
Madhu.

You don't need the WHERE order_id = 6 in your outer statement as it's also in the inner statement.
Also, you must have all the proper primary key or unique indexes in place or you will get the "...maps to non-key preserved table" error.
I was wondering if this stmt would be hv any performance issue ?There's no way we can tell. You have to post explain plans and traces. Same as any other sql statement.

Performance Tuning of webi report BO4.0

Hi ,
I have report which has two data providers in 1st Data Provider i have 10 objects and in 2nd Data provider i have 3 objects the issue is performance report is taking 6 minutes to run.
Please help me out how we can increase the performance at Query Level.
Thanks
Siva

Hi
There are various levels to which you have to check to improve the performance of reports could be at connection levels, query, database etc.
some of them you can try
1. check array fetch size in relational connection parameters, deactivating array fetch size can increase the efficiency of retrieving your data, but slows server performance.
2. Setting options for the default list of values in business layer and data foundation layer
Automatic refresh - If this is selected, the list of values is automatically refreshed each time the
list is called. This can have an effect on performance each time the list of values is refreshed. You should disable this option if the list of values returns a large number of values.
3. set query stripping (Optimize query with Query Stripping in Web Intelligence - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki)
4. also check Performance Tuning Methods in BO

Performance Tuning Of VA01

Hi,
Please can anybody help me in the performance tuning of the VA01 transaction since its consuming a lot of time in production.
This issue is very urgent.
Pls help.

Always check the driver internal tables is not empty, while using FOR ALL ENTRIES
Avoid for all entries in JOINS
Try to avoid joins and use FOR ALL ENTRIES.
Try to restrict the joins to 1 level only ie only for tables
Avoid using Select *.
Avoid having multiple Selects from the same table in the same object.
Try to minimize the number of variables to save memory.
The sequence of fields in 'where clause' must be as per primary/secondary index ( if any)
Avoid creation of index as far as possible
Avoid operators like <>, > , < & like % in where clause conditions
Avoid select/select single statements in loops.
Try to use 'binary search' in READ internal table. Ensure table is sorted before using BINARY SEARCH.
Avoid using aggregate functions (SUM, MAX etc) in selects ( GROUP BY , HAVING,)
Avoid using ORDER BY in selects
Avoid Nested Selects
Avoid Nested Loops of Internal Tables
Try to use FIELD SYMBOLS.
Try to avoid into Corresponding Fields of
Avoid using Select Distinct, Use DELETE ADJACENT
