No he shouldn't. If that selection is pulling 2.5 million records, then that means at least 1.25 million entries against each branch - indexing 1+ million IDs against a single key is not exactly going to be efficient.

I'm no expert on the index optimizer, so cascading selects may not be necessary, but it sure seems logical that if you index even on BRANCH and then select like this (below) you might get better responses: SELECT filename WITH BRANCH = "0616" "0844" SELECT filename WITH LEASE_TYPE # "RA" Also, are BRANCH and LEASE_TYPE actual data fields or translates from another file? If these are translates it could seriously impact your select performance. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 10:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [U2] Question on Unidata tables access speeds I am doing select with BRANCH = "0616" "0844" AND LEASE_TYPE # "RA" Also What is AFAIK, how do we set it up for multiple connections ? thanks "Brian Leach" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] o.uk> cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: [U2] Question on Unidata tables access speeds [EMAIL PROTECTED] er.u2ug.org 08/09/2004 10:18 AM Please respond to u2-users That might explain why one query takes so long, but not the time for the four queries (unless he is out of resource). UniData can run multiple queries concurrently, but AFAIK only one per connection. So I guess the question is how DataStage is connecting to UniData, as it looks like DataStage is scheduling these sequentially.
