This portal is to open public enhancement requests for IBM Sterling products and services. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. I truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations and ideas.
I need a little more information to understand your idea. Can you describe how a report like this will help resolve your issue in understanding your DB load? What problem are you trying to solve with a report like this?
A few concerns were raised when discussing this internally:
Running this report will have a large impact on performance every time it is run
this report would need to be run frequently in order to paint a full picture of the purge activity, this is not useful as a one-off report run infrequently
report would need a lot of work to consolidate and understand, there could be the same BP run 1000s of times and it may not be clear what each BP is doing w/o correlating with purge logs/system logs
There may be other operations other than purge that are impacting your DB load that will not be captured in this report
