I have an SSIS project that reads an input DB table, parses some data, then writes to an output DB table.
For some reason, it reads the first 9k records then just stays in 'yellow' mode and does not appear to do anything.
I checked in the Task Manager and it is using 99% of Ram and 12% CPU but does not seems to ever end, even after 3 hours of running!
Since debug is not available in SSIS, how does one find out what is going on?
Thanks

How exactly are you accessing and parsing this data? Are you using a query, and if so can you post it please? In the meantime, you could try running a trace and see what turns up.

You can also use the the Activity Monitor in SSMS to see if there are excessive wait states or blocking while your SSIS solution is running.

It would also help to know what type of "parsing" you are doing. It sounded like the package was stopping at the step between the data load and the parse. If your parsing is taking a particularly long time, or requiring a lot of work that may explain what you are seeing. There are a lot of places in SSIS where you can end up doing RBAR unintentionally and performing quite a bit of unnessicary work.
