Hi, Amirouche --

Kingsley's points about tuning Virtuoso to use available 
RAM [1] and other system resources are worth looking into, 
but a possibly more important first question is --

   Exactly what version of Virtuoso are you testing?

If you followed the common script on Ubuntu 18.04, i.e., --

   sudo apt update

   sudo apt install virtuoso-opensource

-- then you likely have version 6.1.6 of VOS, the Open Source 
Edition of Virtuoso, which shipped 2012-08-02 [2], and is far
behind the latest version of both VOS (v7.2.5+) and Enterprise 
Edition (v8.3+)!

The easiest way to confirm what you're running is to review 
the first "paragraph" of output from the command corresponding 
to the name of your Virtuoso binary --

   virtuoso-t -?

   virtuoso-iodbc-t -?

If I'm right, and you're running 6.x, you'll get much better
test results just by running a current version of Virtuoso.

You can build VOS 7.2.6+ from source [3] (we'd recommend the 
develop/7 branch [4] for the absolute latest), or download a 
precompiled binary [5] of VOS 7.2.5.1 or 7.2.6.dev.

You can also try Enterprise Edition at no cost for 30 days [5].

How did you load the data?  Did you use Virtuoso's build-load
facilities?  This is the recommended method [6].

I'll be interested to hear your new results, with a current build,
and with proper INI tuning in place.
