Queries that are issued to retrieve aggregate cache values are planned by Cognos Dynamic
Cubes in the same manner as when data is required to populate the data cache. As a
consequence, they are able to take advantage of any available in-database aggregate tables.
The size of the aggregate cache that is specified in the properties of a dynamic cube is simply
