  • Performance recommendations:
    • If you do not review or use the information in the Stored Logic Validity Check section of your deploy reports, then set storedLogicValidityCheck="disabled" to avoid possible performance slow down for a feature you aren't actively using.
    • If you review and use the Stored Logic Validity Check information in your deploy reports but you do not use the storedLogicValidityAction=FAIL option, then we recommend setting storedLogicValidityCheck="limited".
    • If you review and use the Stored Logic Validity Check information in your deploy reports and you also have enabled the storedLogicValidityAction=FAIL option, then we recommend setting storedLogicValidityCheck="local".
    • Although storedLogicValidityCheck="global" is an available setting and is the most comprehensive, if performance timing is an important consideration then it may be better to use a smaller scope such as "local" or "limited".
  • There are different ways you can set the stored logic validity check level, use the method you prefer to set the value:

...

  • Caveat: If you are not using SQL Parser, then only sqlrules would apply in sql_direct folder.  (Other types of rules and forecast modeling do NOT apply in the sql_direct folder if you are not using SQL Parser for Oracle.)
  • If you are using Oracle with a recent version of Liquibase Enterprise/Datical DB 7.x, you could consider using SQL Parser for Oracle to add forecast modeling and forecast rules.
    • When you enable the SQL Parser for Oracle project setting, SQL Parser is applicable by default to the data_dml folder (packageMethod=data_dml) and sql_direct folder (packageMethod=direct) and sql folder (packageMethod=sqlfile).  
    • You could also opt to set packageMethod=direct for your ddl folder so that folder would also use SQL Parser.  Using SQL Parser with packageMethod=direct for ddl would be faster than using the packageMethod=convert for ddl (convert is the default for ddl).  You can change the packageMethod for the ddl folder in the metadata.properties file for the ddl folder.
    • If your DML scripts are quite large, you could disable SQL Parser for the DATA_DML folder for performance reasons.  You can disable SQL Parser at the folder level by setting disableSqlParser=true in the metadata.properties file for the DATA_DML folder.  Note that you only need to set disableSqlParser=true for DML in older Datical versions 7.5 and below.  Parser is already disabled for DML by default in newer Datical versions 7.6 and higher.
    • There were improvements to SQL Parser for Oracle in versions 7.8 and 7.12.  We recommend upgrading to a recent 7.x version if you are using SQL Parser for Oracle.

10.  Having the build agent and the database in close proximity can help performance.

...

  • There were performance improvements for those who use the Stored Logic Validity Check project setting in Datical DB version 6.12 (and higher).
  • There were performance improvements for Status, statusDetails, and Pipeline Status in Datical DB version 6.14 (and higher). This also improved operations which run status implicitly such as deploy, rollback, deployPackager, convert SQL and changeLogSync.  
  • There were performance improvements specifically for multi-database/multi-catalog configurations of SQL Server projects in Datical DB version 6.16 (and higher).
  • There is a fix for the DATAPUMP API Oracle backup and restore in Datical DB version 6.16 (and higher) to better handle running multiple packager jobs concurrently.
  • There is a new cleanup command for packager in Datical DB versions 7.3 (and higher).  The cleanup command can be run after any time that you might need to manually interrupt a packager build job midway.  The cleanup command is to unblock subsequent packager jobs after a manual interruption by clearing the locks on DATABASECHANGELOGLOCK and DATICAL_SPERRORLOG tables and also restoring REF.  Please see this page for more details: How To: Use ReleaseLocks Command and Packager with Cleanup Option
  • With Datical DB version 7.6 (and higher), there is a new feature that prevents continuing to run packager jobs after a backup error or restore error.  Please see the "Recovering from a Backup or Restore Failure" section here for more details: Recovering from a Backup or Restore Failure
  • There were improvements for memory utilization of SQL scripts that produce a high-volume output in 7.11 (and higher).
  • There were improvements for SQL Parser for Oracle in version 7.12 (and higher). 
  • There were improvements for Limited Forecast in version 7.13 (and higher):
    • Limited Forecast will only profile tables impacted by the changesets to be forecasted or deployed
    • Limited Forecast will only profile the schema impacted by the changesets to be forecasted or deployed in multi-schema projects
  • Significant performance improvements for Forecast profiling in version 7.14 (and higher):
    • Faster forecasting of Views and Materialized Views
    • Faster profiling for tables, columns, and views in multi-schema projects
    • Use multiple connections (maximum of 10 connections) to profile schemas simultaneously in Oracle multi-schema projects.  Note that with 7.14 (and higher) in Oracle projects with multiple schemas, you may notice higher CPU utilization due to multiple connections being used for Oracle forecast profiling.
