dbGetQuery() progress?

Is there any way to view the progress of a dbGetQuery() function call? Also, are there any faster alternatives to the function? Have found myself waiting hours for the query to finish running and would like a quicker way to pull the data.

I doubt that any changes in R will speed this up. Your query must just be very hard work for the database server.
Suggestions:

  1. Reduce number of columns
  2. Reduce number of rows
  3. Use TOP (n) to get a subset of rows and see if you can predict how long all rows will take
