<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi All,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">We are running 8.43D1 on an AIX server
with Oracle 10g and have noticed performance degradation caused by some
inefficient ‘behind the scenes’ SQL code generated by Powerhouse. The
code in question relates to Powerhouse figuring out which procedures a
user has rights to by querying the user_arguments object.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Without going into the technical specifics,
we logged a call with Cognos (11-30343281) and they have suggested upgrading
Powerhouse from 8.43D1 to 8.43E to improve overall Oracle performance,
even though this particular piece of SQL code is unchanged between the
two releases.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">For us to upgrade is a considerably
large task, so I was wondering in advance of us considering it whether
people have found the D1 to E upgrade worthwhile (in particular from a
performance perspective)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Any general comments would be greatly
appreciated.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Kind Regards,</font>
<br>
<br>
