Observation: Many Table Rows in Tablespace

The number of rows exceeds the limit for tables located in non-partitioned tablespaces. Consider partitioning the tablespace to improve performance on tables with approximately 1 million rows or more. Partitioning enables DB2 to process a table in parts and at times in parallel.

If you anticipate a small result set, utilize the OPTIMIZE FOR n ROWS option. This option prevents list prefetching, and sometimes influences the Db2 optimizer to choose a faster access path.
