Error description

  • Using MON, MONTH, DAY, Dy in the format string in TO_TIMESTAMP
    or TIMESTAMP_FORMAT can affect the performance of the query due
    to excessive calls to sqlnls_fmblk_callback or
    sqlnls_gmblk_callback driving the contention on the memory latch
    higher thus affecting the overall performance of the query.
    
    This issue does not happen in DB2 v95 or lower.
