We have a problem about SAS view performance when its getting a query from multiple tables -that contains reasonable large data- from database. We have a simple loan portfolio data that has nearly 600k rows and 40 columns for a day and we have it for 2 years period. It has some inner joins from differnt tables also (2-3 more tables) IT department create views for us and we find that its working so slowly. When you try to drag it to the process flow, it takes 30 minutes to have a view. I read that (i m not sure its true or not) if you r getting a view that contains multiple join queries from different table, SAS is getting all data inside and make it ready for you for view usage. Is it true? as i mentioned above, i have to wait for neasrly 30 minutes to have a view from SAS and the data is not so large. When we try it with a view that is getting one table query the perfomance is great. Also we put the data to sas table and try to view it. performance is great als this time. But i dont want to create a new copy database that contains same tables in SAS server. Is anybody knows a solution to handle this poor performans of a view that contains multiple queries joined by a query? p.s. we also try proc sql for just one day data. It is not also working properly. Thanks.
