From: | | Fred W Pluebell |
If only the PI changed and MERGE time is vastly longer, the issue could be duplicate row checking (SET table). Try CREATE MULTISET VOLATILE
TABLE; do explicit GROUP BY if you need to remove potential duplicate rows.
VOLATILE tables appear as SPOOL in the user's space accounting; you can't tell them apart from other SPOOL files - but you can watch
size/skew.
