Hi All,

We are processing cubes two methods using script task.

we are following below two methods.

Method 1: Method 1 is cubes are processing All in One time only
Method 2: Method 2 is cubes are processing one after one cube.

Which one is better. and which one faster below two methods.

Please let me know

Method 1:
sXMLA = sXMLA + "<Batch ProcessAffectedObjects=^true^ xmlns=^http://schemas.microsoft.com/analysisservices/2003/engine^>"
sXMLA = sXMLA + " <Parallel>"

Wouldn't you already know which was faster?

I do not know which is Better, as that could have much to do with your environment.
