SAP Note 590370 - Too many uncompressed request (f table partitions)

Component : BW ORACLE -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/590370 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note details performance issues within infocubes caused primarily by excessive uncompressed requests in F facttables and a high number of partitions. These issues manifest as long execution times during statistics updates, index rebuilds, and during aggregate builds, potentially arousing ORA 14400 errors during data loading. The partitioning mechanism detailed explains each uncompressed request corresponds to a new partition in the F facttable, substantially increasing database objects, thereby affecting performance. Recommended solutions include regular compression of infocubes to reduce the number of partitions and maintain system performance. Future tools in next BW releases aim at improving partition management efficiency.
