Update statistics

Why would "update statistics drop distributions" take several hours.....? And it is still running.... I would have assumed that this would just basically be a delete in the sys tables. Am I wrong?

If you are running a DSS system with huge amount of data then it will take a long time because it has to delete all distributed bins and then recreate them brand new when the new updating of the stats take place. You should drop distributions on DSS system, only if you are sure that you have enough time to recreate them back. Hope this helps. Ravi.
