| Subj: |  | Re: Fastload performance |  |  |  | From: |  | Geoffrey Rommel |  
 |  | The source table of ibm-db2 has 2G data.It took 2 hours to load data from ibm-db2 to teradata.  Is it normal?  If not,how can i
imporve the performance when using fastload utility? |  | 
 
 
 
 Are you unloading the data from DB2 to a flat file and then running the FastLoad?  If so, you can speed things up by writing an
INMOD that will read directly from DB2.  There is a paper in the forum library that explains how: www.teradataforum.com/l030315a.htm 
 If you're already doing this, you may be able to make it faster by increasing the MVS scheduling priority of your job. I don't know
the details of how to do that.
