Performance Tuning:
To avoid read bottleneck
The counters help identify
Read/Write/DTM bottlenecks
Caching problems
Transformation errors
Shared memory allocation problems
Reduce the number of records processed by filtering
the source
Index the source
Replace default query with an optimized query in SQL
override of Source Qualifier
To avoid write bottleneck
2

 Utilize SQL loader facility of the database

Drop indexes before load and rebuild after the load
Increase the database block size
To avoid DTM bottleneck
Reduce the amount of detail in the session logs

To avoid DTM bottleneck

Run parallel sessions in Concurrent batches
Use incremental aggregation for mappings that use
aggregation

 To avoid DTM bottleneck

Optimize mapping
Optimize session
For cache problems
Increase index and data cache

For shared memory allocation problems

Increase the shared memory size

 For shared memory allocation problems

Increase the shared memory size

 To optimize sessions
Increase shared memory size
Increase buffer block size for very large row sizes
Consider the commit interval. More commits=slower
performance
Disable decimal arithmetic if possible
