Hi,

I have a cube(s), Which holds 10 years worth of data and I have a Harizondal partition tables by year. Each year table has 25 Mil rows.

I created cube with DISTINCT function along with 20 Dim tables. I have 8 Partition by year and Qtrly partitions for the latest 2 years.

I couldn't create any Aggrigation due to memory issue. If I creates even 50 Agg and I get 'Out Of Memory' error message. So, I kept 0 Agg and Processed the cube. When the users try to browse the cube through excel and It takes lot of time to pull the data and Somtime it hangs.

Am I doing anything wrong?
Is there any other way to improve the Cube browser perf?

Note:
I stored the snapshot of all the Customers by monthly along with their status on each year.

Example:
Name Date Status
Customer1 01/01/2006 Active
Customer1 02/01/2006 Active
Customer1 03/01/2006 Active
Customer1 04/01/2006 Active
Customer1 05/01/2006 Active
Customer1 06/01/2006 Active
Customer1 07/01/2006 Active
Customer1 08/01/2006 Active
Customer1 09/01/2006 Active
Customer1 10/01/2006 Active

I have 2 mil customers status for past 10 years.

Any help would be Appreciated.
