title: Proc SQL Delete takes WAY too long
body: <p>I'm running the following SAS command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Proc SQL;
  Delete From Server003.CustomerList;
  Quit;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Which is taking over 8 minutes... when it takes only a few seconds to read that file.  What could be cause a delete to take so long and what can I do to make it go faster?</p>
  
  <p>(I do not have access to drop the table, so I can only delete all rows)</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
  
  <p>Dan</p>
  
  <p>Edit:  I also apparently cannot Truncate tables.</p>
