Friendly and Helpful List Members,

We are running MaxDB 7.5.00.24 on an X86 machine w/ 2x3Ghz CPU, 2G ram, SCSI
Mirrored drives, Win2K3 Std.  Data cache and catalog hit rates are above
99.9%.

I have 2 tables:

DEVICEINFO (report_id int, groupnum int) approx 27,000,000 records (2.8GB),
no keys but an index on report_id
There are approx 1000 records per unique report_id.

TMPTBL (report_id int, sublotno int) approx 200 records, no keys, no index

When I run the SQL

UPDATE DEVICEINFO D
SET GROUPNUM = (SELECT SUBLOTNO FROM TMPTBL T
                    WHERE T.REPORT_ID = D.REPORT_ID)

The data base drops to it's knees and eventually times out.  I tried adding
WHERE REPORT_ID IN (SELECT REPORT_ID FROM TMPTBL)
To the bottom the update query but it makes no difference.

Does anyone have any thoughts on why this query is so horribly slow, how I
might rewrite it, or what I might do to tune the DB?

Your assistance and insight will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Keith Arnold
