We are using BPC for NetWeaver 10.0 in HANA. We have not yet enabled HANA MDX.
Last weekend, we upgraded our environment from BPC Support Package 9 to 13. After this, we noticed that the run time of many of our logic scripts increased as compared to an environment that is still on SP9. Some of these increases are quite considerable, and seem to be associated with logic scripts that process or deal with dimension properties (e.g. in *WHEN/ENDWHEN statements or inside of *REC statements). I have attached an example of one such logic script where the run time increased over 25 times longer in SP13 as compared to SP9. I also included the log files from comparative UJKT runs in a SP9 environment vs. a SP13 environment (Data Region: TIME=2014.05, so running on one month). The data in the scope of these scripts in each environment is the same. The only difference is the Support Package level.
Has anyone else encountered this? Has there been some fundamental change in the underlying processing of logic scripts, especially with regards to dimensions, dimension properties, etc?
Thanks! I've submitted an Incident with SAP, so hopefully we can get somewhere, but thought I'd also check in with the experts!
