Analysis server cube Performance through Excel 2007

Hello Everybody

I am accessing Analysis server cube -2005 through Excel 2007 for building reports. When ever i select a row or column right click and select Filter > Hide Selected Items, it will show "running query on the OLAP server" at bottom and will not respond after that.

Ran the MDX generated by Excel 2007 directly on analysis server, even then also it takes lot of time and finally it doesnt respond. I read in the forum that the sql generated by Excel 2007 is different. how can i tweak in so that cube performance improves ?

Thanks
Kiran

Hi Kiran,

Do you have old AS 2000 to compare performance? The reason I am asking this because you can check if you have same aggregation setup in AS 2005 cube. If you don't have old cube to compare try creating aggregation on AS 2005 cube. Also you can check profiler, performance counter etc.
