Adding Data to GDB extrem slow

FrankGlandorf1 — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 06:34:30 GMT

Hi,

I am not quiete sure if I am right in this discussion group.

I have written an Add-On for ArcCatalog (Button) which allows me to add data into a filegeodatabase.

The import of the data into the tool takes about 5 second. The import into the filegeodatabase takes about 5 hours. Maybe someone can have a look at the sourcecode and tells me what to do to get the imort faster.

My importHaltungen() has to add abaout 1600 objects and it tooks about 30 minutes to do so.

My only idea is to put the gdb to the local-drive insteadt of a network-drive

You should consider using an InsertCursor together with a recycling RowBuffer to implement an insert that performs well. In your case you do a IRow.Store together with a dedicated ITable.CreateRow on every single item. This seems to be a bad idea...

Use:

ITable table = ...
IRowBuffer rowBuf = table.CreateRowBuffer();
ICursor insertCursor = table.Insert(true);
foreach (var entry in entries)
{
    IFields fields = rowBuffer.Fields;
    int fieldIndex = .... // Resolve your field index from column name
    object o = ... // Resolve your value from field index
    rowBuffer.SetValue(fieldIndex, o);
    insertCursor.InsertRow(rowBuf);
}
insertCursor.Flush();

HTH + Cheers

Many thanks for your help. The time for running the code is nearly by 5 seconds instead of half an hour. Unbelievable but both ways works.

But I have to mention one thing. The IRowBuffer doesn't have a function "setValue()". It has to be rowBuffer.value(fieldIndex) = o
