Restricting concurrent queries

Ordinarily, as long as you maintain a reasonable percentage of free space in
your IQ Store, you will have enough free space. However, for certain deletions,
depending on the size of the data and its distribution among database pages,
you may need a large amount of working space. In the case where you are
deleting a major portion of your database, and the data is distributed sparsely
across many pages, you could temporarily double the size of your database.
Note
In other databases, including Adaptive Server IQ Version 11.x, this
working space is in a pre-image file. If you are migrating from Version 11.x,
you need working space in your IQ Store comparable to the space in your
Version 11.x transaction image (TI) file.
The number of concurrent users of an IQ database, the queries they run, and the
processing threads and memory available to them, can have a dramatic impact
on performance, memory use, and disk I/O. Adaptive Server IQ provides
several options for adjusting resource use to accommodate varying numbers of
users and types of queries. Most of these are
that affect only the current database. A few are command-line options that
affect an entire database server.
For more information on all of these options, including parameters, when the
options take effect, and whether you can set them for both a single connection
and the
group, see the Adaptive Server IQ Reference Manual.
