What is Highwatermark?

Answer Posted / gourvendra singh

Highwatermark means the largest amount of data that was
placed in the table. for ex you are having a table which is
having 100 records, now ur highwatermark is 100, now you
add 10000 record more in the table ur highwatermark will
raise to 10000, nd if you delete all the records ur
highwatermark will remain on 10000, thats why in these case
query takes some times as it scan upto 10000. that why we
should use truncate in case of deleting all the records. as
the truncate cammand will remove the highwatermark and ur
processing will be faster.

for any query pls contact:
