Slow Extraction using SAP Connector

Hi all,

I'm currently pulling some data from the VBAP table in SAP. And the performance is very slow! The table size is 100mil records and is about 100GB is disk size. I loaded it for more than 12 hours and it only loaded 10mils records! This is with all the columns. I tried to reduce the number of columns to around 10, but the speed is still slow... only 30mils extracted in 5hours. Is this normal?

Is there anyway to improve the speed? Any thing that I can tweak in QlikView or SAP? The QV server is 64core with 64GB of RAM. QlikView's RAM usage is not high... less than 10GB. Plenty of free memory. Using SAP Connector 5.4, QlikView 9 SR5.

We changed the following parameters in SAP (following one of the post in this forum):

Import/export parameter rsdb/obj/buffersize to 400000 (400Mb) and rsdb/obj/max_objects to 100000.

Is it the same thing that you are talking about? If not, can you give me more details on how to configure the size of the cache memory?
