Please respond to
ORACLE-L
We have a statement that I feel takes too long to run in a nightly data
load.
The table it runs against has 386,000 records. It runs for about 10
seconds
on average. We're only loading about 50,000 records a night but this
statement
is running during the majority of the 9-hour load time. This is causing
the
load to run longer than our allowable window and causing me untold
headaches.
If anyone has any suggestions to make this run faster, I'd be greatly
appreciative.
The columns in the where statement are all part of an index. However, the functions on the columns add additional execution time and complexity.
This is an 8.0.4 database so I can not make this a function-based index.
I put this in a couple of SQL tuning tools and came up with no valid
alternatives.
I can't help thinking that the statement could be rewritten into a couple
of statements
so that it would be more efficient. However, I'm not skilled enough with
SQL to
do it. Perhaps someone else is. Here's the code.
SELECT /*+ INDEX(EXP_COST_CENTER_DIM EXP_COST_CENTER_DIM_IDX1) + */
EXP_COST_CENTER_KEY
FROM EXP_COST_CENTER_DIM
WHERE ACCOUNT_NUMBER = :b1 AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_1_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b2,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_2_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b3,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_3_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b4,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_4_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b5,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_5_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b6,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_6_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b7,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_7_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b8,'NONE') AND
NVL(ORG_LEVEL_8_VALUE,'NONE') = NVL(:b9,'NONE') AND
ROWNUM = 1
