How can I improve Adobe CS5 performance?

I have got a trial of Adobe Creative Suite 5 on a PC at work and so far it's ok but it's really lagging. The PC currently has an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 @ 2.66GHz, 4GB DDR2 Ram, 160GB Hard Drive and an Integrated Intel Graphics Chip.
Will adding a dedicated graphics card improve CS5's performance? I have read on forums that Mac users use a 2nd hard drive as a 'scratch disk' for the likes of photoshop which improves the performance but not sure how to implement that.
Any ideas would be great.

The intergrated graphics may well be taking about system RAM. Additionally, you didn't state your operating system but I recommend Win 7 64 bit with a boat load of RAM.
Fast harddrives with a dedicated scratch disk will help, also.

I figured you'd ask for those Since I can't remember the topic/subject line, I have no idea if I have enough time in this life to try to find them - I had subscriptions for all of them, but of course, those went poof into cyberspace.
Edit: Athough the search function does not work well (could not specificy 'iMac' - would get "unauthorized to search" every time), so I had to go through quite a few, but I found two of the major threads:

How Can we improve the report performance..?

Hi exports,
I am learning the Business Objects XIR2, Please let me know How Can we improve the report performance..?
Please give the answer in detailed way.

First find out why your report is performing slowly. Then fix it.
That sounds silly, but there's really no single-path process for improving report performance. You might find issues with the report. With the network. With the universe. With the database. With the database design. With the query definition. With report variables. With the ETL. Once you figure out where the problem is, then you start fixing it. Fixing one problem may very well reveal another. I spent two years working on a project where we touched every single aspect of reporting (from data collection through ETL and all the way to report delivery) at some point or another.
I feel like your question is a bit broad (meaning too generic) to address as you have phrased it. Even some of the suggestions already given...
Array fetch size - this determines the number of rows fetched at a single pass. You really don't need to modify this unless your network is giving issues. I have seen folks suggest setting this to one (which results in a lot of network requests) or 500 (which results in fewer requests but they're much MUCH larger). Does either improve performance? They might, or they might make it worse. Without understanding how your network traffic is managed it's hard to say.
Shortcut joins? Sure, they can help, as long as they are appropriate. [Many times they are not.|http://www.dagira.com/2010/05/27/everything-about-shortcut-joins/]
And I could go on and on. The bottom line is that performance tuning doesn't typically fall into a "cookie cutter" approach. It would be better to have a specific question.

How can I improve below SQL performance.

Hi,
How can I improve below SQL performance. This SQL consumes CPU and occures wait events. It is running every 10 seconds. When I look at the session information from Enterprise Manager I can see that "Histogram for Wait Event: PX Deq Credit: send blkd"
I created some indexes. I heard that the indexes are not used when there is a NULL but when I checked the xecution plan It uses index.

Thanks in advance

Welcome to the forum.
I created some indexes. I heard that the indexes are not used when there is a NULL but when I checked the xecution plan It uses index. What columns are indexed?
And what do:
select i.sub_type
,      count(*)
from   express.invoices i
where i.nbr is not null
and    i.extract_batch is null
group by i.sub_type; and
select i.sub_type
,      count(*)
from   express.invoices i
group by i.sub_type; return?
Also, try use the {noformat}{noformat} tag when posting examples/execution plans etc.
See: HOW TO: Post a SQL statement tuning request - template posting for more tuning instructions.
It'll make a big difference:
SELECT i.ID
FROM EXPRESS.invoices i
WHERE i.nbr IS NOT NULL
AND i.EXTRACT_BATCH IS NULL

The Server.xml and fms.ini have default settings.
My RAM usage is always low... 1,1 GB... and also my CPU usage is low. The FMSCore.exe process reaches 630 MB usage and then stays at this level.
How can I use my server's RAM or have you any tips or suggestions to improve FMS performance with some special settings?
I tried to change this in fms.ini:
SERVER.FLVCACHE_MAXSIZE=500
to 1000 but the application crashes after it reaches 2GB of RAM.
Thanks in advance
best,
Marco

Hi,
Thanks for trying the different settings...
When we talk of tuning for the best performance, different settings are required for different scenarios, for example, a live broadcast would require aggregation of messages (if latency is OK) but a live conferencing solution might need to disable it. So unless the use case is little briefed it is tough to conclude on any generic settings to improve performance.
I would also like to comment on the FLVCache size. I recommend it to be set to 1/4 the size of your RAM. And you can safely tweak only the SERVER.MAXFLVCACHESIZE variable without worrying on the other variable (which is in percentage). This is supposed to take priority over all other settings.
If your use case is a vod, have 1/4 RAM as cache size, and also tweak the video buffer settings for mp4 (if you have mp4 content as well). OutchunkSize is another variable that you may want to tweak (at the cost of CPU and latency). You can aggregate the messages.
Also, you need to make sure of the client side buffer settings to match your FMS settings as well as your use case requirements.
Hope it all helps.
Thank you !

How can i improve my system performance

hello Experts,
today i faced one problem
i,e i got mails from users that my server is very slow
i checked
responce time--985ms
and no long running jobs and also buffers also fine
in my system all things are fine
now want to know to check how much network utilization required to my sap server?
i have doubt in network utilization ....i need help in tis way only
Regards

Is the DB on a separate server? I ask because even a fairly slow public network (i.e. for SAPGUI) is unlikely to be a cause of major performance problems. Note 'unlikely', not 'impossible'. If the DB is separated from CI and/or DI and that link is 100Mb/s, things can get nasty.
Slow performance is real tricky to solve blind. You say your system is fine and you mention SAP-level metrics. How about other stuff?
Paging rate
CPU load averages
Runaway processes at O/S level
If Windows server, check for an antivirus program monitoring \usr\sap\.....
Filesystem/volume access speeds
System log messages (OS not SAP)

Alan.

How can I download Adobe CS5 upgrade on a new computer.

I just bought a new computer and am trying to download Adobe CS5 upgrade. When installing it says I do not have a qualifying adobe product. I have a student version of Adobe CS2 premium which the installer also does not recognize the serial number.....pay all this money and can't even use it....

You are allowed on two activated copies. If you already have reached this limit you will need to deactivate one and then try it. If you old computer crashed it is still considered activated. If so you need to call customer service tomorrow and explain and they can reactivate.
Hope this helps get you up and running.

How can I improve NFSv3 file performance with MythTV thru a NAS Drive?

Basically, I have both my MythTV combined frontend/backend machine and a NAS Drive connected via gigabit ethernet connections.
The NAS drive stores my recordings, shared via NFSv3 (because that's all the NAS drive came with, unfortunatly).
Now, my problem is that I can record or watch multiple *seperate* HD files simultaneously, travelling back and forth from the NAS without problem.
However when I try to watch the same file *While it's still being recorded*, after around 20 minutes the network connection is full/overloaded (between the mythserver and the NAS drive) and playback grinds to a halt (It doesn't stop the recording, just the playback).
It used to happen much quicker when I was only using a 100mb connection.
As i've said, this doesn't happen at ALL with seperate files, just only if i watch the *same* file that's being recorded at the same time.
Is there anyway (bar just having the recordings on a Hard Drive within my backend) that I can stop this problem? Is it because I use NFSv3 on the NAS drive? are there any options I can change in the /etc/exports file on the NAS drive that would help? Thanks
If you want me to post what my NAS drive (Readynas Duo V2) has in its /etc/exports file, I will

Post the file but I dunno how many Archer are using NFSv3... ;/

How can i improve sharepoint server farm scalability

Hi,
How can i improve sharepoint server farm scalability, like currently 1000 users can access my SharePoint.
Now i am looking to improve my SharePoint users scalability (1000 to 2000) , How can i
do this and how can i improve my SharePoint performance
Prakash

Scale up or scale out.
Either provide your SharePoint servers with more CPU and RAM (scaling up) or add more servers to the farm (scaling out) to allow the load to be shared between the servers.
The exact breakdown depends on the details of your implementation.

How can I improve performance for BC4J/JSP-application

Hi,
I have developed a JSP-Applikcation with the master-detail views. This Application has been implemented
as SSO enabled web portlet into portal. Whenn I click on a row retrieved from the master view (Master.jsp), it take 15 seconds
until the associated data in detail view will be displayed on the other window(Detail.jsp). The master table has about 2500 records and detail table about 7000. (Other case: it takes 2 seconds for 162 rows (master) and 228 rows (detail) respectively)
In Master.jsp I set rangesize = "10" to reduce data loading time.
======================== master.jsp =================================
<jbo:DataSource id="dsMaster appid=testAppId viewobject="MaterView" rangesize="10">
<a href="detail.jsp?RowKeyValue=<jbo:ShowValue datasource="dsMaster" dataitem="RowKey"/>">
Here Click
</a>
==================================================================
Because all records from master view have firstly to be retrieved to locate right row, I set rangesize="-1" in detail.jsp. Consequently this leads to a lower performance.
When rangesize="20" sets instead rangesize="-1", The performance is good, but the wanted Data from detail view are not displayed if the records of master view cliked on ist not in this range.
======================== detail.jsp ======================================
<jbo:DataSource id="dsMaster appid=testAppId viewobject="MaterView" rangesize="-1">
<jbo:RefreshDataSource datasource="dsMaster">
<jbo:Row id="msRow" datasource="dsMaster" action="Find" rowkeyparam="RowkeyValue">
<jbo:dataSource id="dsDetail" appid="testAppId viewobject="DetailView">
======================================================================

How can we improve performance while selection production orders from resb

Dear all,
there is a performance issue in a report which compares sales order and production order.
Below is the code, in this while reading production order data from resb with the below select statement.
can any body tell me how can we improve the performance? should we use indexing, if yes how to use indexing.
*read sales order data
SELECT vbeln posnr arktx zz_cl zz_qty
INTO (itab-vbeln, itab-sposnr, itab-arktx, itab-zz_cl, itab-zz_qty)
FROM vbap
WHERE vbeln = p_vbeln
AND   uepos = p_posnr.
    itab-so_qty = itab-zz_cl * itab-zz_qty / 1000.
    CONCATENATE itab-vbeln itab-sposnr
       INTO itab-document SEPARATED BY '/'.
    CLEAR total_pro.
**read production order data*
    SELECT aufnr posnr roms1 roanz
    INTO (itab-aufnr, itab-pposnr, itab-roms1, itab-roanz)
    FROM resb
    WHERE kdauf = p_vbeln
    AND   ablad = itab-sposnr+2.

Himanshu,
Put a break point before these two select statements and execute in the production.This way you will come to know which select statement is taking much time to get executed.
In both the select statements the where clause is not having the primary keys.
Coming to the point of selecting the data from vbap do check the SAP note no:-185530 accordigly modify the select statement.
As far as the table RESB is concerened here also the where clause doesn't have the primary keys.Do check the SAP Note No:-187906.
I guess not using primary keys is maring the performance.

How can I Improve the Performance using Global Temo Tables ??

Hi,
Can anyone tell me , How can i make use of Global Temporary Tables to improve the Performance.
I have few sample scripts ,
Say i have the View based on some Complex query like ,
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW Profile_values_view AS
SELECT d.Profile_option_name, d.Profile_option_id, Profile_option_value,
u.User_name, Level_id, Level_code
FROM Profile_definitions d, Profile_values v, Profile_users u
WHERE d.Profile_option_id = v.Profile_option_id
AND ((Level_code = 'USER' AND Level_id = U.User_id) OR
(Level_code = 'DEPARTMENT' AND Level_id = U.Department_id) OR
(Level_code = 'SITE'))
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM PROFILE_VALUES P
WHERE P.PROFILE_OPTION_ID = V.PROFILE_OPTION_ID
AND ((Level_code = 'USER' AND
level_id = u.User_id) OR
(Level_code = 'DEPARTMENT' AND
level_id = u.Department_id) OR
(Level_code = 'SITE'))
AND INSTR('USERDEPARTMENTSITE', v.Level_code) >
INSTR('USERDEPARTMENTSITE', p.Level_code));
Now i have created the Global temp Table as ,
CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE Profile_values_temp
Profile_option_name VARCHAR(60) NOT NULL,
Profile_option_id NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
Profile_option_value VARCHAR2(20) NOT NULL,
Level_code VARCHAR2(10) ,
Level_id NUMBER(4) ,
CONSTRAINT Profile_values_temp_pk
PRIMARY KEY (Profile_option_id)
) ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS ORGANIZATION INDEX;
Now I am Inserting the Records into Temp table as
INSERT INTO Profile_values_temp
(Profile_option_name, Profile_option_id, Profile_option_value,
Level_code, Level_id)
SELECT Profile_option_name, Profile_option_id, Profile_option_value,
Level_code, Level_id
FROM Profile_values_view;
COMMIT;
Now what my doubt is, when do i need to execute the Insert Statement.
Say , if the View returns few millions of records , then loading such a data into Global Temporary table takes lot of time.
Then what is the use of Global Temporary tables and how can i improve the Performance using the same.
Raj

Thanks for the responce ,
There are 2 to 3 complex views in our database, and there always be more than 5000+ users will be workinf on the application and is OLTP application. Those complex views are killing the application performance.
I what i felt was, if i create the Global Temporary tables for thow views and will be able to load the one third million of records returned by the views in to cache and can improve the application performance.
I have created the Global Temporary tables for 2 views with the option On Commit Preserve , But after am inserting the records into the Temp table and when i Issue the commit statement, the Temp table is getting Cleared.
I really got surpised of this behaviour as i know that with the Option On Commit Preserve , the rows should retain in the Temp Table, Instead , it's getting cleared.
Pelase suggest , what to do ??
