ALS and delayed commit
We currently use ALS on one of our heavily hit dbs to reduce log contention. Now that delayed commit is available for consideration, would it make sense to add delayed commit on the db along with ALS? Is that a bad mix or is that reasonable? Thanks, Bob

Since they aim at different aspects, they might work in combination, at least theoretically. However, I'm guessing this combination may not have been expected. That doens't mean it couldn't work, but if you'd run into issues, it would not be a complete surprise for me. Anyway, it depends what type of log contention you're looking at -- disk writes or semaphore contention? Keep in mind that delayed commit may result in losing the last few committed transactions, should ASE be shut down abruptly.

We have mainly log semaphore contention, but since this db is more of a working storage db to support the app, recoverability is not a concern. So, thought delayed commit would be of benefit also, since there are very high transactions. We can't turn off ALS, the system can't function under a heavy load without it. Bob

Could it be possible to take scripts from ASA and load them in an ASE Any information is welcome jean-fran�ois ASA supports a fairly large sub-set of Transact-SQL, so if you write your stored procedures and triggers in ASA using T-SQL, you should be able to create scripts that will run against both ASE and ASA.

Hi, All, I run select * statement from a view on both ASE11.5 and ASE12. The speeds for returning the value are very different. On ASE11.5, it only takes 1min while on ASE12, it takes 30min. ASE12 has bigger data caches for the database and tempdb than what the ASE11.5 has. Both of them have the same indexes. After I run sp_sysmon on ASE12, in the report of data cache management, ASE12 has high cache hit ratio (that is good) and high pool turnover (no good). Does that mean I need to increase the data cache for ASE12? I also noticed that in OS, ASE12 has very tight free mem...
