Dear All,
How are you?

We are trying to display images in our report in two ways

1. Directly read blob field
2. read from location using formula column.

Both ways it is working.

Quote:
But the problem is, it is taking too much time to run the report.


could you please suggest a way to reduce the time?
do we need to set any parameters?

Thanks and regards
Deepak

Note that these are binary large objects.

How many images do you display in the report at a time? Is it one image per report, or do you display tens, hundreds or thousands of them?

How large are these images (bytes / kilobytes, Megabytes)?

What is report's response time if you DO NOT display images?

Try to run a report in debug mode (Edit - Preferences - Runtime settings - Run debug). Or, trace the session (put SRW.DO_SQL ('ALTER SESSION SET SQL_TRACE=TRUE'); into the report, for example BEFORE REPORT trigger) and TKPROF the result.

Dear LittleFoot,

Sorry For late reply, I dont have net connection at office. Wink

At a time 4 or 5 reports are displaying (about 1.25 Mb total)

Without image it is coming properly.


I will try in debug mode and let you know the result.


Thanks a lot for your time Smile

Dear cookiemonster,

Yes, 4 or 5 Images per Report. Without image it is coming in 2,3 Seconds.

Dear all,

One more thing, in Report builder it is coming in 6 seconds (With image). But when i run this report in Application it is taking 1 minute . And application server is in linux.

I think at this point you need to trace the session to see where the time is being spent.
