Hey there,

I've made a view which executes in about 2 minutes. When using this view to make a cube, the processing seems to take for ever. Are there any guidelines how to process your cube as fast as possible?

I've 3 dimensions; date, vendor and item.
Don't know what to post here to explain the problem further, but if you have any questions I'll try to answer them as fast as possible!

In my experience, you're better off building your cubes from tables rather than views. I'd set up a stored proc to populate a cached table with the results of your view, then point AS at this. I've achieved big processing performance improvements this way in the past.
