Performance and tuning of DS jobs:

1.Establish Baselines

2.Avoid the Use of only one flow for tuning/performance testing

3.Work in increment

4.Evaluate data skew

5.Isolate and solve

6.Distribute file systems to eliminate bottlenecks

7.Do not involve the RDBMS in intial testing

8.Understand and evaluate the tuning knobs available.

thanks
