Hello Daniel, In the past we observed the situation, that the optimizer statistics have not been calculated optimally for large tabels, if the statistics were calculated based on a sampling of 20.000 rows. This can lead to the situation that the SQL optimizer does not choose the optimal execution plan, which may result in a longer execution time. For bigger tables (>1.000.000 records) it make sense to set the sample rate to 10% instead of 20.000 rows. After executing the command
ALTER TABLE SMM 10 PERCENT the message in the database analyzer should disappear.
