Problem description: | |
It was determined that during heavy concurrent insert/update operations involving code page conversion into a unicode database that the malloc'ing of memory from the OS can become a bottleneck during the code page conversion process. environment: 1. DB2 9.5 and up 2. The database codepage is UTF. 3. The application codepage is not. 4. There are frequent and concurrent insert/update to the database. this was uncovered during a customer PMR with 50-100 concurrent import jobs against the same table. After a certain point the percentage of time spent in ossLockGetConflict() reaches 75% trying to malloc and free memory. | |
