It seems to me that I once wanted to do that, and was<br>told I needed to add a new column, stripe it, and then index on that. Probably<br>something like Lastname,Firstname.<br> <br>> I have a client who is trying to squeeze every last bit of performance out of<br>> the SSD drive he just installed. I am not testing the environmental variables<br>> associated with index rebuilds. FilePro support has not been very helpful on<br>> this matter as I don't think they have a good understanding how these variables<br>> work.<br>> <br>> I am testing the following values:<br>> @echo off<br>> title Rebuld Marketing Indexes<br>> SET PFMAXalloc=="256"<br>> SET PfMAXTEMP="1500"<br>> SET PFNUMIXBUILD=500<br>> dxmaint l_patient_market -ra -e<br>> <br>> By the way he is running Windows Server 2012 and Window 10 clients using SSD<br>> drives on the server. He is using external storage connected to his backbone<br>> using a 10 GB/S connection. FilePro is 5.8.03.27.<br>> <br>> As I am not sure if the 4.1 indexes sorting is multi key or if this is a waste<br>> as all of there indexes are multikey or have selection sets associated with the<br>> auto index.<br><br>-- <br>Jay R.
