With (nolock) in cube project

Just a quick one, in my cube project, in the Named queries for the dimensions and measure, should I be using With(nolock)?  i.e. will it make processing the cube quicker?

Not necessarily.  It mainly will decrease the chance for your query to time out by  avoiding blocking locks (dirty reads)...If you want to make your processes faster, make sure the feeding processes are well tuned(indexes, structure, code, filegroup, partiion, you name it....)

Hope this helps...
