Question 600

A Snowflake query took 40 minutes to run. The results indicate that ‘Bytes spilled to local storage’ was a large number.

What is the issue and how can it be resolved?

    Correct Answer: B

    The warehouse is too small to handle the query efficiently, resulting in a large amount of 'Bytes spilled to local storage'. Increasing the size of the warehouse will provide more resources to keep data in memory, thus reducing or eliminating the need to spill data to local storage.
