Hi

Don't just tune the views but see how they are used by looking in the sql-area views or tracing a session that uses it in the way it's normally used. than tune what you find (if not app created sql this shoud be possible)

Hey all,

We have a multitable view setup on our 8.1.7.2.0 HP/UX 11.0 DB for security,
so our users can use <gulp> MS Ack-sess to query a few columns from some sensitive tables. In other words, the view doesn't filter rows, just columns. The problem is that the author of the view explicitly set the RULE
hint and it seems to be causing a few performance problems when joining the view to other tables.

So, I'll "fix" the view and be the hero, right? <sigh> Well, how do you tune a multitable view when you don't know how it's going to be used? After
fixing a little join mishap, I added hints for FIRST_ROWS, as well as FULL for the super small 1-block tables. This seems to me to be valid, since the
users of the view will (hopefully) filter the rows based on an index of one or more of the tables of the view, but I don't really have any proof other than a pretty-looking explain plan.

Anyone have a philosophy or procedure for tackling something like this? Preferrably one that ends in "drink beer"?

TIA!
