Optimizing the load of the database

For all entries

The for all entries creates a where clause, where all the entries in the driver table are combined with OR. If the number of entries in the driver table is larger than rsdb/max_blocking_factor, several similar SQL statements are executed to limit the length of the WHERE clause.

The plus

Large amount of data

Mixing processing and reading of data

Fast internal reprocessing of data

Fast

The Minus

Difficult to program/understand

Memory could be critical (use FREE or PACKAGE size)

Some steps that might make FOR ALL ENTRIES more efficient:

Removing duplicates from the driver table

Sorting the driver table

If possible, convert the data in the driver table to ranges so a BETWEEN statement is used instead of and OR statement:

FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_tab

WHERE mykey >= i_tab-low and

mykey <= i_tab-high.

Nested selects
The plus:

Small amount of data
Mixing processing and reading of data
Easy to code - and understand
The minus:

Large amount of data
when mixed processing isn’t needed
Performance killer no. 1
Select using JOINS
The plus

Very large amount of data
Similar to Nested selects - when the accesses are planned by the programmer
In some cases the fastest
Not so memory critical
The minus

Very difficult to program/understand
Mixing processing and reading of data not possible

Optimizing the load of the database
Using table buffering
Using buffered tables improves the performance considerably. Note that in some cases a statement can not be used with a buffered table, so when using these statements the buffer will be bypassed. These statements are:

Select DISTINCT
ORDER BY / GROUP BY / HAVING clause
Any WHERE clause that contains a sub query or IS NULL expression
JOIN s
A SELECT... FOR UPDATE
If you wan t to explicitly bypass the buffer, use the BYPASS BUFFER addition to the SELECT clause.

Use the ABAP SORT Clause Instead of ORDER BY
The ORDER BY clause is executed on the database server while the ABAP SORT statement is executed on the application server. The database server will usually be the bottleneck, so sometimes it is better to move the sort from the database server to the application server.

If you are not sorting by the primary key ( E.g. using the ORDER BY PRIMARY key statement) but are sorting by another key, it could be better to use the ABAP SORT statement to sort the data in an internal table. Note however that for very large result sets it might not be a feasible solution and you would want to let the database server sort it.

Avoid the SELECT DISTINCT Statement
As with the ORDER BY clause it could be better to avoid using SELECT DISTINCT, if some of the fields are not part of an index. Instead use ABAP SORT + DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES on an internal table, to delete duplicate rows.

hi,

1. Database

2. ABAP

3. System

Run Any program using SE30 (performance analys) to improve performance refer to tips and trics section of SE30, Always remember that ABAP perfirmance is improved when there is least load on Database.

u can get an interactive grap in SE30 regarding this with a file.

also if u find runtime of parts of codes then use :

Switch on RTA Dynamically within ABAP Code

*To turn runtim analysis on within ABAP code insert the following code

SET RUN TIME ANALYZER ON.

*To turn runtim analysis off within ABAP code insert the following code

SET RUN TIME ANALYZER OFF.

Always check the driver internal tables is not empty, while using FOR ALL ENTRIES

Avoid for all entries in JOINS

Try to avoid joins and use FOR ALL ENTRIES.

Try to restrict the joins to 1 level only ie only for tables

Avoid using Select *.

Avoid having multiple Selects from the same table in the same object.

Try to minimize the number of variables to save memory.

The sequence of fields in 'where clause' must be as per primary/secondary index ( if any)

Avoid creation of index as far as possible

Avoid operators like <>, > , < & like % in where clause conditions

Avoid select/select single statements in loops.

Try to use 'binary search' in READ internal table. Ensure table is sorted before using BINARY SEARCH.

Avoid using aggregate functions (SUM, MAX etc) in selects ( GROUP BY , HAVING,)

Avoid using ORDER BY in selects

Avoid Nested Selects

Avoid Nested Loops of Internal Tables

Try to use FIELD SYMBOLS.

Try to avoid into Corresponding Fields of

Avoid using Select Distinct, Use DELETE ADJACENT

HI

AFTER U WRITE YOUR PROGRAM I

FOLLOW THIS PATH

MENU PATH PROGRAM -> CHECK-> CODE INSPECTOR

THERE YOU HAVE TO MAINTAIN ALL THE ERRORS AND WARNING AS ZERO

THEN ONLY IT WILL BE GOOD IN THE PERFORMANCE POINT OF VIEW

SO DO THIS AND CHECK IT

Hi,

The transaction SE30 gives all the analysis of an ABAP program with respect to the database and the non-database processing.
