    Hi i saw a post that you wrote on Staging data into PerformancePoint Planning :

    “I recommend that you that when you synchronize your staging database, you should execute a script to add indexes back to your staging tables. The sync process drops all staging indexes. You’ll find performance will increase considerably with proper indexes, i.e. BizSystemFlag, MemberId, Label. Without these indexes, I have experienced timeouts when trying to load staging to the app database. — David Street bieasystreet.wordpress.com”

    My question is how do i know if the sync drops my staging indexes? After the sync i still see the index object in staging database.

    Thanks,
    Dinh
