<h1 class="topictitle1">Improve SQL blocking performance when using FETCH FOR n ROWS</h1>
<div><p>Special performance considerations should be made for the following
points when using FETCH FOR n ROWS.</p>
<div class="section"><div class="p">You can improve SQL blocking performance with the following: <ul><li>The attribute information in the host structure array or the descriptor
associated with the row storage area should match the attributes of the columns
retrieved.</li>
<li>The application should retrieve as many rows as possible with a single
multiple-row FETCH call. The blocking factor for a multiple-row FETCH request
is not controlled by the system page sizes or the SEQONLY parameter on the
OVRDBF command. It is controlled by the number of rows that are requested
on the multiple-row FETCH request.</li>
<li>Single- and multiple-row FETCH requests against the same cursor should
not be mixed within a program. If one FETCH against a cursor is treated as
a multiple-row FETCH, all fetches against that cursor are treated as multiple-row
fetches. In that case, each of the single-row FETCH requests is treated as
a multiple-row FETCH of one row.</li>
<li>The PRIOR, CURRENT, and RELATIVE scroll options should not be used with
multiple-row FETCH statements. To allow random movement of the cursor by
the application, the database manager must maintain the same cursor position
as the application. Therefore, the SQL run-time treats all FETCH requests
against a scrollable cursor with these options specified as multiple-row FETCH
requests.</li>
</ul>
