  • How do we determine if the BW system is running  slow?

    Dear BWers,
    How do we determine if the BW system is running slow? I have a situation where it is taking about 1 hr 30 min to load 700,000 records from the application server with direct mapping and no major transformations. How do i conclude if my BW system is running slow? Is there any documentation on this or benchmarks to analyze this? All and any help is appreciated.
    Thanks
    Raj

    The time taken to load depends on a few factors like the following:
    1. network bandwidth
    2. system memory on the application server.
    3. available processes in the application server to start the job
    Make sure to load the master data, activate them and also apply change run before you load the transaction data. If you have secondary indexes, make sure you delete them before laoding data. I will suggest to have sequential load and put all the processes in a process chain. Where ever you can, try to split the package size. But in your case, the no of records is not that much and so you should be fine with one info package.

  • System freezing/running slower

    I've been having some difficulties with my macbook as of late: in the past three days, chrome has frozen about 7 times and force quitting made the entire screen freeze (so all i could do was using the shut-down button). I've also noticed that the bootup is slower than usual. Generally speaking, the whole thing has been running slower and slower for a while now. i get the rainbow wheel of doom on a frequent basis. (also, my fan is quite loud and i can hear a rattling sound sometimes)
    here is what seems to have happened before everything froze:

    i've verified disk permissions, verified disk, did a hardware check (everything normal) and reset NVRAM/PRAM. I didn't even know any of these things existed until a few days ago, so if i'm honest i have no idea what i'm doing.
    (also, with disk permissions i got "Permissions differ on “System/Library/PreferencePanes/Displays.prefPane”; should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are lrwxr-xr-x "" and "
    should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are -rw-r--r-". I'm not sure whether that is important.)
    if anyone could tell me what is going on / what i could do to stop my computer from being slow/crashing, i'd be immensely thankful! (it's also a new model; from january 2012)

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Firefox 4 constantly runs slow,even after following the solutions

    I have tried the solution pages and help,but firefox 4 optimised for yahoo still continues to run slow. I have never had this problem with firefox 3.6 for yahoo. this is driving me crazy,please help!!

    try google chrome 10.x, these kinds of problem often happens to some specific websites. so, you need an alternative sometimes. and sometimes it is the problem of the websites, so calm down buddy. during internet rush hours i.e 18:00-22:00 monday to friday, it may make you unpleasant even with some BIG websites, so don't be that fuss to this.

  • HT1338 I have this round circle and its rain bow colors it follow my arrow everywhere I go with my arrow.I think BUT not sure if it mean that my system is running slow,BUT NOT SURE, A what can I do about this issue.

    I have this round circle and itsrain bow colors ,It follow my arrow everywhere I point my mouse.

    Thanks so much for your reply!  You've definitely got me leaning more toward the Curve now.    I'm sooooo bummed out that our Alltel doesn't have the pink Curve.   They're in the process of switching over to Verizon but said it'll be around late summer before they really start getting their phones in.  All I have to choose from is red and black!  If they had the silver one, I'd go for that even.  But as you mentioned, you can buy all sorts of skins and covers for them so I guess I can always give that a try!  If they'd had the pink Curve I would have exchanged in a heartbeat! haha  I'm such a girl sometimes.
    I really do a lot of emailing, texting, IMing, etc., so the Curve may be better for me.  My last phone was a Scoop (though I only had it for a few months because it was a replacement phone) and toward the end, I started to get used to the full QWERTY keyboard more.  I really like that the Curve has buttons that you can really depress... Not just the flat keys that you can't even really feel as you're pushing! 
    Thanks again for your help!  My sister and niece are also telling me I should go with the Curve.   

  • System running slow since installing yosemite

    Problem description:
    My iMac is running very slow since installing Yosemite.  I turned off iCloud for photos and this seems to have helped, but it is still running slow.  When I ran this EtreCheck, there seem to be a lot of "failures". What's up with my Mac?
    thanks,

  • SQL: System locks up and runs slow after performing simple DML record insert

    SQL Version:  2008 R2
    I am having a serious problem.  I ran the following code to perform a simple table record insert which ran successfully.  However, after running this code I could no longer access the related table.  I couldn't run a query against it. 
    I tried to delete all the records and that wouldn't work either.  When attempting to run any DML statements (i.e. Select * From vPCCertificateTypes) against this table SQL gets locked up and never returns anything and no error messages.  I have
    to manually stop the query.  Now the entire SQL system is running slow.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  The code I ran to originally insert the records is below.
    Regards,
    Bob Sutor
    CODE: 
    Begin TRAN
     INSERT INTO vPCCertificateTypes (VendorGroup, CertificateType, Description, Active, Category)
     SELECT HQCo, 'MBE', 'Minority-owned Business Enterprise', 'Y', 'Affirmative Action' 
     FROM HQCO
     Where HQCo IS NOT NULL
      AND HQCo <> 100
      AND HQCo <> 99
     IF @@ROWCOUNT <> 44 ROLLBACK ELSE COMMIT
    Bob Sutor

    The problem was an open uncommitted transaction against the table as you suspected.  I ran your code and it cleared the transaction.  In the past I would intentionally leave our the Commit statement and then if the transaction ran fine, I would
    simply highlight and run 'COMMIT' and it would close the transaction.  Apparently that is not the correct approach.  I'll use your suggested code from now on.
    Thanks for the help.

  • VISTA SYSTEM RUNS SLOW AFTER INSTALLING ITUNES 10.5.3.3

    First I could not download Itunes new version 10.5.3.3 by clicking on down load in Itunes. I had to open my browersand go to Apple site and down load. Once down loaded I installed 10.5.3.3, Now it seems my system is running slow and hangs. Not just in Itunes but in other progams also. Any ideas?

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • TS2570 System runs slow after upgrading 2010 macbook to Mavericks. How do i speed it up again? Defrag? if so how.

    Downloaded Mavericks to my fast running 2010 Macbook a couple of days ago and since this the whole system is running slow.
    How can i speed it up again please?

    Fixing a Mavericks Installation Problem
    How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
    Try these in order:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
         after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
         Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • SYSTEM IS RUNNIG SLOW

    HEY GUYS I M GOIN THROUGH SOME PROBLEM WITH MY MACBOOK. RECENTLY I HVE INSTALLED ONYX 2.2.2 FOR CLEARING CACHES AND COOKIES. THE PROBLEM IS THT MY SYSTEM IS RUNNING SLOW. IS IT BCOZ OF THT PARTICULAR PROGRAM OR ANY OTHER CAUSE.
    PLZ HELP ME!!!!!

    Onyx may cause a slowdown if the associated cache files of the programs that are running slow were first wiped by Onyx.
    If your hard drive is too full*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/diskfull.html
    It may slow down. Other reasons may be incompatible hardware or software, or directory issues as outlined below:
    http://www.macmaps.com/directoryfaq.html
    Only use Onyx if you have no other choice and your data is backed up, and you know what you are deleting will help it, not hurt it.
    P.S. Is your caps lock key stuck? In internet netiquette, it is generally not considered polite to use all caps, as in the old days of the net, that was the most common way to indicate you are shouting. Please if you are able, use lowercase.
    - * Links to my pages may give me compensation.

  • My mac is running slow, the spinning beach ball constantly appears. it seems that when i am in the apple store with fast wifi its a bit better. genius at the apple store checked the hard drive, it's all fine. what can it be?

    my mac is running slow, the spinning beach ball constantly appears. it seems that when i am in the apple store with fast wifi its a bit better. genius at the apple store checked the hard drive, it's all fine. what can it be? can it be a software issue with the wifi?
    also i noted that it has only been doing this since quite recently, before it was fine
    please help!

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|timed? ?o' | tail | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • IMac 10.8.5. Internal HD constantly reading - slows system down

    Hello All
    after reading quite a few threads about the 10.8.5 and newest iTunes update, i am stuck with the same problem since 2 weeks.
    Issue :
    Internal Harddrive is constantly spinning (read or write) even if i have ALL apps closed and after a cold start.
    Activity Monitor shows nothing fancy (as far as i can judge), see screenshot.
    System is incredibly slow and i see the wheel of missfortune spinning every now and then.
    Disc Permisson has hundreds of problems, even after repairing them.
    It's whorst after a restart...disk works and works and works for 40minutes (like disc defragmantion where in use in the "old" days)
    What i allready tried :
    Installing the Compo Update again (manually)
    Repairing Disc permission (several times)
    I have nothing fancy disc cleaning tool or system optimizing gimmik installed
    It all started a short period after installing the 10.8.5 and newest iTunes. Unfortunately no Backup of the System available, as it worked fine for the first 2 weeks i deleted it.
    Any idea anyone ? it makes me crazy and i lost quite a lot of working time allready.
    Thanks everyone.
    Daniel

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Macbook pro system running slow - etrecheck shows issues - any idea how to apply fixes?

    Hi I normally consider myself pretty web savvy but I'm totally lost on what to do here. This computer has been running slow since I got it, but the harddrive went sideways recently. I've never worked with a recovered drive - which I apparently have as my terminal lists my workfolder-2 so....I'm guessing I'm pretty screwed. I learned about etrecheck through the forums here but don't understand how to apply it
    Would anyone help me understand what I need to do?
    Here's my etrecheck:

    Adding some RAM would help. Even though you haven't restarted for 4+ days, this is a little high. The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a machine supposedly limited to 4 GB.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
