The performance of your USoft
application can be optimized by complying to the following
(general) rules:
·
|
For optimum performance, applications should be run from flat
files in the production environment. Use the Binder to make sure
that the "-ddfile" option and the application name are specified on
the command line that starts the application. |
·
|
Minimize network traffic. |
·
|
Run your application with the RDBMS's SQL trace facility
enabled, or use USoft BenchMark's Profiler. From the resulting
statistics, and after discussing the application's performance with
end-users, determine which SQL statements take the most time to
process, or are considered the most "irritating". Concentrate your
tuning efforts on these statements. |
·
|
Define additional indexes on columns that are frequently used
in queries. |
·
|
Optimize the performance of your database server. If you use a
PC as application server, put the flat files on a RAM disk. (Refer
to your Windows manual for details.) |
·
|
On your PCs (both clients and servers), minimize the use of
conventional memory. |
·
|
If certain windows are used regularly and others hardly ever,
runtime users can have USoft Developer cache these windows at
startup. Although this will slow down the startup process, it will
drastically increase performance when the application is up and
running. |
