| Hi all, I have a question about estimating the temporary tablespace size during auto load in EEE Version 7.2. Hope that someone can help. I have a table spanned across 2 nodes (SMP machine) and have several indexes on it. I use 32K pagesize for temp, data and index tablespaces. There are 9 indexes: one is 12 bytes and the others are 9 bytes. When I use autoloader to load into the database, the temporary tablespace is used during the load and I have monitored its usage. According to the documentation, 3.2 * number of records * (average record len + 8) is used to estimate the temporary tablespace usage during creation of index. So, I sum up temporary tablespace size required for all the indexes creation. However, I found that the space usage is nearly double the above estimation. 1. Should I double the figure in the estimation? 2. Does the estimation also depend on the number of nodes the table spans? 3. When a new set of data is loaded (inserted) into the table, does it trigger a full or incremental rebuild of the indexes? Thanks a lot! Vincent |
