Hey Chad,
The table is heavily inserted and deleted from. Recently I had done a
very large delete.
Here is the results of the query you sent me: (sorry it's hard to read)
"dcms_dim_id";0;4;755;-0.00676181
"transaction_fact_id";0;4;-1;-0.194694
"failed";0;4;2;0.964946
"van16";0;23;145866;0.00978649
"vendor_response";0.9942;43;9;0.166527
"transaction_id";0;4;-1;-0.199583
"transaction_date";0;8;172593;-0.194848
"serial_number";0.0434667;16;53311;0.0713039
"merchant_dim_id";0;4;105;0.299335
"comment";0.0052;29;7885;0.0219167
"archived";0;1;2;0.84623
"response_code";0.9942;4;3;0.905409
"transaction_source";0;4;2;0.983851
"location_dim_id";0;4;86;0.985384
"success";0;4;2;0.981072
Just curious - what does that tell us?
