I have a cube that has a dimension that is roughly 100,000 rows.
It runs extremely slow, and i am not sure what direction to go to fix the problem.
I have created partitions for the measures, and the the aggregates seem to run just fine. I can however, pull over just a dimension, into the browser in 2008 BIDS, without any measures even, and i will take 10 minutes to load. Any suggestions of what direction i can go to trouble shoot this? I am using SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Edition. The Server is huge, having 196 gig om memory.
I appreciate your help!

Build hierarchies on your dimensions’s attribute. Even if you can bring them all to the cube, who will search a single attribute among 100.000k possible values?
Its a Microsoft best practice to add big dimensions in some sort of hierarchy and set the AttributeHierarchyVisible property to false so the attribute is enable to be browsed through the hierarchy but not alone
