Prior to upgrading to 8.12/8.9.7.1.2, we tested the multi-threading feature and it seemed to significantly deprecate performance. Some of our custom applications wouldn’t even run without erroring out. At the time, we hadn’t done any official tuning (modifying ini settings or taking additional SAR’s), so we decided to revert back to the single-threaded option, and the system went back to performing as expected. Since then, we hired some outside consultants to assist us with our tuning efforts, but the mulit-threading feature remained unused.
So, this week, we decided to turn the multi-threading feature back on in our test environments to assess if any other performance enhancements could be gained. It appears at first glance that the system doesn’t act any better or worse with the multi-threading feature turned on. (Fortunately for us, the error’s we originally discovered are no longer there which I would contribute to the couple of SAR’s we took.) Our DV and PY is setup for mulit-threading while our QA and PD environment is setup as single-threading, so I can compare the two options with a fair amount of consistency.
1. Has anyone seen a significant performance improvement by utilizing mulit-threading?
2. Can anyone recommend a way to significantly test the feature? (I am having 5 different people add a new Item at the same time.)
Thanks,
Kip.
