SQL query runs too many times in SQL server Profiler

Hi Experts
I have designed a report using SQL database.Report is based on Add Command Object, View and Table.Which are link and gives desired output.
However it takes long time. In the SQL Sever profiler it shows that query is executing too many times.
When in the Add Command object I edit the query Say I write TOP 5000 then it executes once however if I write Add 5001 then I face the same behavior.
I have checked "Grouping on server" option in options.
Please Advice.
Regards
Asha.

Thanks Raghavendra for reply
How adding group will help? I have to link this command objects with view and table.Also  When I add "TOP 5000" in add command query it executes only 1 time in SQL query Profiler hower if edit that query to "TOP 5001" then it again it executes several time which is impacting the performance.
Please advice?
Regards
Asha.

    I got two classes en Observable with an Observer
    in observable:

  • Oracle Apex - when I open a page the sql query runs

    What do I need to change to stop the sql query running when a page is opened in Apex
    the page accepts a value to search a table for relevant data. I have set a default value
    every time I open the page it runs the sql query using the default value

    Does it need a default value?  Why I am asking is, you could add a conditional display to your report region that would not show the report until the item has a value entered by the user..

  • PL/SQL: ORA-00913: too many values

    But in this Example i'm getting an ORA-00913. Can anybody tell me what i'm doing wrong?
    DECLARE

    blocking_sessions session_type;

  • How to check the query, which had run how many times in a year?

    <Moderator Message: ok, subject is better now but you didn't search at all. Therefore thread is locked again>
    Hi All,
    I want to check the Query statistics like it had run how many times in a year?
    Regards,
    Kiran
    Edited by: Siegfried Szameitat on Dec 9, 2008 11:55 AM

    Hi Kiran,
    please follow the below steps
    1. Create a query for that purpose
    2. Make use of BW Statistic InfoProvider 0BWTC_C02
    3. in Col: Key Figure:0TCTNAVCTR
    4. in Row: 0TCTQUERY (select a variable 0TCTQUYS)
    5. in Filter: BW System( 0TCTSYSID) [give yr source system name whether its production/quality)
    6. in Free char you can give calmonth/year  or user if want to do so.
    save and execute the query
    you will be asked for input the query name
    As output you will be getting count (as many times query is hit by all users since the time it was created)
    if you give date and user name then it will display the count accordingly.
    Hope it Clarifies you.
    Thanks & Regards

  • A function in a subquery is call too many times.

    Dear all,
    I'm struggling to understand why a function in a subquery is called too many times.
    Let me explain with an example:
    create or replace function all_emp (v_deptno in number)
    return varchar2
    as
    v_all_emp varchar2(2000);
    begin
        dbms_output.put_line ('function called');
        for i in (select * from emp where deptno = v_deptno) loop
            v_all_emp := v_all_emp || i.ename || '; ';
        end loop;
    return v_all_emp;
    end;
    -- running just the subquery, calls the function all_emp only 4 times (once for each row in table dept)
    select
        d.deptno,
        d.dname,
        all_emp(d.deptno) f_all_emp
        from dept d;
    -- running the whole query, using regexp to split the value of f_all_emp into separate fields, causes that function all_emp is called 28 times, thus 6 times for each row!!
    select tmp.*,
    regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,1) emp1,
    regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,3) emp2,
    regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,5) emp3,
    regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,7) emp4,
    regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,9) emp5,
    regexp_substr(f_all_emp,'[^;]*',1,11) emp6
    from
        (select
        d.deptno,
        d.dname,
        all_emp(d.deptno) f_all_emp
        from dept d) tmp
    ;I don't understand why Oracle is calling my function 28 times in this example, 4 times should be sufficient.
    Is there a way to force that the subquery is materialized first?
    Little background:
    Above function / query is of course a simple example.
    Actually I have pretty complex function, embedding in a subquery.
    The subquery is already slow (2 min to run), but when I want to split the result of the funciton in multiple (approx 20) fields it's over an hour due to above described behaviour.

    Optimizer merges in-line view and query results in:
    select  d.deptno,
            d.dname,
            all_emp(d.deptno) f_all_emp
            regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,1) emp1,
            regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,3) emp2,
            regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,5) emp3,
            regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,7) emp4,
            regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,9) emp5,
            regexp_substr(all_emp(d.deptno),'[^;]*',1,11) emp6
      from  dept d
    /That's why function is called 28 times. We can see it from explain plan:

    Hi All,
    Does someone knows how to avoid the message "Unable to create report. Query produced too many results" in Grid Report Type in PerformancePoint 2010. When the mdx query returns large amount of data, this message appears. Is there a way to get all
    the large amount in the grid anyway?

    Hello,
    I would like you to try the following to adjust your readerquotas.
    Change the values of the parameters listed below to a larger value. We recommend that you double the value and then run the query to check whether the issue is resolved. To do this, follow these steps:
    On the SharePoint 2010 server, open the Web.config file. The file is located in the following folder:
    \Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers\14.0\Web Services\PpsMonitoringServer\
    Locate and change the the below values from 8192 to 16384.
    Open the Client.config file. The file is located in the following folder:
    \Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers\14.0\WebClients\PpsMonitoringServer\

  • Parsing the query takes too much time.

    Hello.
    I hitting the bug in в Oracle XE (parsing some query takes too much time).
    A similar bug was previously found in the commercial release and was successfully fixed (SR Number 3-3301916511).
    Please, raise a bug for Oracle XE.
    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Extract files from testcase_dump.zip and testcase_sql.zip
    2. Under username SYSTEM execute script schema.sql
    3. Import data from file TESTCASE14.DMP
    4. Under username SYSTEM execute script testcase14.sql
    SQL text can be downloaded from http://files.mail.ru/DJTTE3
    Datapump dump of testcase can be downloaded from http://files.mail.ru/EC1J36
    Regards,
    Viacheslav.

    Bug number? Version fix applies to?
    Relevant Note that describes the problem and points out bug/patch availability?
    With a little luck some PSEs might be "backported", since 11g XE is not base release e.g. 11.2.0.1.

  • Insert Query taking too much time (5 hrs)

    Hi experts,
    We are using "Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi" on our server, and we are trying to execute the SQL script which inserts data into a table from 5 different table.
    Note: The SQL query is been passed directly to the server.
    Need your expertise as to what is causing the script to run so slow.....(It's taking around 5 hrs to execute the script).
    The Script is as follow's;
    Insert /*+ append */ into TABLE1 NOLOGGING
    SELECT DISTINCT /*+ PARALLEL(TABLE1, 4) */ ROW_NUMBER() OVER
    (ORDER BY COL1, COL2, COL3, COL4, COL5, COL6, COL7, COL8, COL9) AS PK_ID, TABLE1.COL1 AS PRODUCT_ID, TABLE1.M_NBR AS M_NBR, TABLE1.P_NBR AS P_NBR, TABLE1.C_ID AS C_ID, TABLE1.TABLE1_SERV_DT AS TABLE1_SERV_DT, TABLE1.C_KEY AS C_KEY, TABLE1.C_DEN AS C_DEN, TABLE1.A_S_DT AS A_S_DT,
    TABLE1.F_ID AS F_ID, TABLE1.L_DT AS L_DT, TABLE1.A_DT AS A_DT, TABLE1.D_DT AS D_DT, TABLE1.C_TYPE AS C_TYPE,
    TABLE1.S_COL AS S_COL, TABLE1.S_TBL AS S_TBL, TABLE4.ME AS ME, TABLE1.ER_YN AS ER_YN
    FROM
    TABLE1,
    TABLE2,
    TABLE3,
    TABLE4,
    TABLE5
    WHERE
    TABLE1.COL1 = TABLE2.COL1
    AND
    TABLE1.COL2 = TABLE3.COL2
    AND
    TABLE1.COL3 = TABLE4.COL3
    AND
    (TABLE1.SERV_DT BETWEEN RY_START AND RY_END)
    AND
    (TABLE1.CLAIM = :"SYS_B_0")
    AND
    (TABLE2.INACTIVATED = :"SYS_B_1")
    AND
    (TABLE2.TABLE1 = :"SYS_B_2")
    AND
    (TABLE2.PRELIM = :"SYS_B_3")
    AND
    (TABLE3.MEASURE = :"SYS_B_4")
    AND
    (TABLE3.EVENTS = :"SYS_B_5");

    In addition to APC, here's some more on the subject:
    EXACT - (Default) Only statements with an exact text match will share the same SQL area.
    SIMILAR - Oracle will substitute bind variable for all literals, thereby increasing the chances of a text match. Oracle will force similar statements to share the SQL area without deteriorating execution plans.
    FORCE - The same as SIMILAR except that execution plans may deteriorate. This option should only be used if the risk of suboptimal plans is outweighed by the increase in cursor sharing .

  • Upgraded too many times???

    i have recently upgraded my itunes to version 6 or whatever is the latest. after i had done this i decided to upgrade the software on the computer using the 'software update' option. little did i know, the updater updated my itunes. this is a second update, but two different ways. my question is, is it possible to update a program too many times and it getting corrupted or doing too many things? and when a program is updated where does the old version go? does it get stored or thrown out (i am concerned that if the old versions are stored that it would just take up space)?

    When Software Update runs, it will only offer newer versions of installed software.
    This normally does not corrupt the system or applications.
    Sometimes applications are updated and sometimes completely replaced.
    Old files are always deleted, so they don't take precious HD space.
    Did you encounter problems with the iTunes update?
    It's a good habit to always run Disk Utility and perform a 'Repair Disk Permissions' before and after installing/updating software.
    This routine maintenance prevents most troubles.

  • Error saying "this ID has been authorised too many times" , how to resolve ASAP?

    Error saying "this ID has been authorised too many times" , how to resolve ASAP?

    Adobe Live Chat: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html
    They can reset your authorizations, and then you must reauthorize any devices you still need.
    (Unfortunately, Adobe haven’t got round to an admin website for viewing and editing authorizations.)
    Some of the representatives haven't been properly trained and don't know what to do (and claim there is nothing they can do);
    in that case the only way seems to be to give up that chat and try another session hoping for a properly trained representative.
    If your problem is with another device using Overdrive, Bluefire, Aldiko or similar third party app, it is recommended not to mention that app when on the chat, just mention that you have run out of authorizations  (E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS) .  Thanks to AJP_Bear for that tip.

  • JSP bug? url.openStream() = server redirected too many times

    I tried something the other day that works in Java, so it should work as a JSP scriptlet, but I received an error message that others have posted elsewhere without a compete resolution. Specifically, given a URL, say u, one ought to be able to do u.openStream() and eventually read the remote page. Typically, one might want to try
    URL u = new URL("http://someserver.com/path/file.xxx")
    BufferedReader bfr = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(u.openStream()))and then read bfr line-by-line. The problem that seems to be fairly common is that the openStream() call throws a ProtocolException claiming "server redirected too many times (20), ."
    What I've seen is that this exception occurs whenever the URL is outside the Tomcat server whence the call is being made; in our case, we're running "out-of-the-box" Jakarta Tomcat 4.1.29 on port 8080 of a w2k server. The code works perfectly in native Java and in JSP for a URL of the form "/anotherpage.jsp"
    Is this a bug in JSP, or in our version of Tomcat, or is there just some configuration parameter that needs to be changed from its default? As I said, I've seen similar posts (with less detailed analysis) in the Usenet newsgroups, but not one has generated a response that explains and resolves the matter.
    Perhaps a JSP guru out there could set the record straight? Thanks.
    P.S. I know that the use of scriptlets in JSP is being discouraged, but they are still supported AFAIK.

    Sure scriptlets are still supported. Most times though you can do things better with a custom tag. Why reinvent the wheel?
    Just as a suggestion, you might try the JSTL <c:import> tag.
    It basically does just this behind the scenes.
    However I don't think that will help you in the end - it will probably hit the same error message.
    My guess would be that the problem is not caused by java/JSP as such, but by a firewall, or configuration somewhere.
    The following works fine for me (ignoring broken images of course)
    <%@ page import="java.net.*, java.io.*" %>
    <%
    URL u = new URL("http://www.google.com");
    BufferedReader bfr = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(u.openStream()));
    String line = null;
    while ((line = bfr.readLine()) != null){
      out.println(line);
    %>Hope this helps,

  • TS3682 I have tried to restore me iPod that is disabled due to typing in the wrong password too many times. iTunes keeps giving me a box saying that it can't connect because I need to type in the passcode on the iPod (which I can't) what do I do now?

    I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
