Hello, what are the Pros and Cons to adding them (for GP 18.5)?
Anyone experience any issues?
 
fyi we just upgraded GP so another upgrade is unlikely for years

    Without spending the time analysing the columns you have the indexes on....
     
    Adding indexes is allowed for GP tables, but they usually would need to be reapplied after an upgrade.
     
    Pros: Correct crafted additional indexes can improve performance when accessing the data using where clauses containing columns not in the existing indexes.
     
    Cons: The additional indexes will add a small overhead when adding/updating records and will make the database itself larger (depending on the columns in the index and the number of records).
     
    Usually performance is more important than space.
     
    Regards
