Performance problem?

Former Member — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 02:45:58 GMT

I have a program. about 400 lines. it takes 30 mins to get the result. The most serious proplem is when it is runing, others can not do anything and the system turns to be very slow............

Help!!

Can anyone give some advice???

Hi,

Please let us know the process of the program and the Select queries that you are using.

If you believe your queries are correct then it could just be a one-off case in which case you need to contact your Basis people to check load on the system.

Hi Amanda,

If your system starts to slow whenever you run your program then it is your programs fault. You might want to check your select statements in your program. This is one of the major culprits on why programs are very slow.

Hope it helps...

P.S. Please award points if it helps...

check your all data fetching <b>select</b> statements and do the <b>Extended program check</b>

SELECT

• In a SELECT statement, only the fields that are needed are selected in the order that they reside on the database, thus network load is considerably less. The number of fields can be restricted in two ways using a field list in the SELECT clause of the statement or by using a view defined in ABAP Dictionary. The usage of view has the advantage of better reusability. Besides this the use of INTO CORRESPONDING must not be used as it is degrades the performance

SELECT SINGLE

• SELECT SINGLE is used instead of SELECT-ENDSELECT loop if full primary key is known. Otherwise, use Up to 1 Rows. SELECT SINGLE requires one communication with the database system.

SELECT UP TO .. ROWS

• SELECT UP TO 1 ROWS is faster than SELECT SINGLE as the SELECT Single takes more time in the absence of all the primary keys specified in the queries. Where ever applicable try to limit the database result set to a fixed number of selections by specifying the number of records in the UP TO <n> ROWS part.

WHERE-clause

• Always specify the conditions in the WHERE-clause instead of checking them with check-statements, the database system can then use an index (if possible) and the network load is considerably less. You should not check the conditions with the CHECK statement because the contents of the whole table must be read from the database files into DBMS cache and transferred over the network. If the conditions are specified in the where clause DBMS reads exactly the needed data.

SELECT using an aggregate function

• Use a select list with aggregate functions instead of checking and computing, when try to find the maximum, minimum, sum and average value or the count of a database column, thus network load is considerably less. SELECT + INTO TABLE

• Always select into an internal table, except when the table will be very large (i.e., when the internal tables will be greater than 500,000 records). Use “Up to N Rows” when the number of records needed is known

ARRAY INSERT

• Whenever possible, use array operations instead of single-row operations to modify your database tables. The frequent communication between the application program and database system produces considerable overhead ORDER BY & SORT

• ORDER BY statements is used in SELECT only if it can use an index else sorting is effective by reading into an internal table and use the SORT statement in the program.

Hi Amanda,

Some points:

Don't use Select corresponding.

If possible either select all the fields or change the structure . This is b'coz Select into corresponding is very bad performaning code piece.

Second If you know that the data records being read are not more than 200 records then don't sort and use binary search. This is because for internal tables of smaller size Sorted table is actually not good.

SELECT * INTO TABLE LT_VBFA

FROM VBFA

FOR ALL ENTRIES IN LT_LIST

WHERE VBELV = LT_LIST-VBELN

AND POSNV = LT_LIST-POSNR

AND ( VBTYP_N = 'T' "Returns delivery for order

OR VBTYP_N = 'J' ). "Delivery

Don't use 'OR' in the select. You can use IN (T,J).

Remove

SELECT SINGLE NAME1 SORTL REGIO LAND1

INTO (LT_LIST-NAME1,LT_LIST-SORTL,

L_REGIO,L_LAND1)

FROM KNA1

WHERE KUNNR = LT_LIST-SKUNNR.

SELECT SINGLE BEZEI INTO LT_LIST-BEZEI

FROM T005U

WHERE BLAND = L_REGIO

AND SPRAS = '1'

AND LAND1 = L_LAND1.

these from inside the loop and put it outside since this is going to fetch data in each loop which will increase data base hits.

Hope these things will help you
