Image Processing Performance Issue | JAI
I am processing TIFF images to generate several JPG files out of it after applying image processing on it.
Following are the transformations applied:
1. Read TIFF image from disk. The tiff is available in form of a PlanarImage object
2. Scaling
/* Following is the code snippet */
PlanarImage origImg;
ParameterBlock pb = new ParameterBlock();
pb.addSource(origImg);
pb.add(scaleX);
pb.add(scaleY);
pb.add(0.0f);
pb.add(0.0f);
pb.add(Interpolation.getInstance(Interpolation.INTERP_BILINEAR));
PlanarImage scaledImage = JAI.create("scale", pb);3. Convertion of planar image to buffered image. This operation is done because we need a buffered image.
/* Following is the code snippet used */
bufferedImage = planarImage.getAsBufferedImage();4. Cropping
/* Following is the code snippet used */
bufferedImage = bufferedImage.getSubimage(artcleX, artcleY, 302, 70);The performance bottle neck in the above algorithm is step 3 where we convert the planar image to buffered image before carrying out cropping.
The operation typically takes about 1120ms to complete and considering the data set I am dealing with this is a very expensive operation. Is there an
alternate to the above mentioned approach?
I presume if I can carry out the operation mentioned under step 4 above on a planr image object instead of buffered image, I will be able to save
considerable processing time as in this case step 3 won't be required. (and that seems like the bottle neck). I have also noticed that the processing
time of the operation mentioned in step 3 above is proportional to the size of the planar image object.
Any pointers around this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Anurag

It depends on whether you want to display the data or not.
PlanarImage (the subclass of all renderedOps) has a method that returns a Graphics object you can use to draw on the image. This allows you to do this like write on an image.
PlanarImage also has a getAsBufferedImage that will return a copy of the data in a format that can be used to write to Graphics objects. This is used for simply drawing processed images to a display.
There is also a widget called ImageCanvas (and ScrollingImagePanel) shipped with JAI (although it is not a committed part of the API). These derive from awt.Canvas/Panel and know how to render RenderedImage instances. This may use less copying/memory then getting the data as a BufferedImage and drawing it via a Graphics Object. I can't say for sure though as I have never used them.
Another way may be to extend JComponent (or another class) and customize it to use calls to PlanarImage/RenderedOp instances directly. This can hep with large tiled images when you only want to display a small portion.

Synch Process Performance issues.
Hi,
I have a BPEL process that reads a file and then for each transaction within the file it calls a Synch BPEL process that processes it. The Synchronous process takes about 2 min. So say, if there are 25 transations in the file, it takes about 50 min to complete the entire processing. Earlier the Synch process was Asynch process but we had problems when all the records were processed at once that caused data duplication issues. Hence we made changes to make it a Synch process but then performace is become a problem.
Can we improve the performance in anyway?
Otherwise, if I make changes just have one process and move the entire logic of Synch process to the main one and process each record in a while loop, will that have better perfrmance than the above.
Need suggestions. Thanks!
-PrapoornaWe are on 10.1.3.4. So can't try on 10.1.3.5.
And we are using a specific schema.
Regarding the duplication, this is an EDI BPEL Process, so what was happening was, when we get the file and if the customer mentioned in the file does not exist in our system (Oracle db), then within the BPEL process we call the db adapter to call a custom procedure that creates the Customer. Because the process was Asynch earlier, if there are 4 transactions in the file, the Asynch process used to get invoked 4 times all at the same time and then we would see 2 or 3 customers created in the system with the same name and then a couple of instances would fail in the console when it is trying to find out if the customer already exists because the query returns multiple rows. Thats when I thought that may be I have to make the process wait until the 1st record is completely processed that will create the customer record if it does not exist and then when the 2nd record is processed it will not create the customer again as it is already created. Hence I made it a Synch process.
As I said earleir, do you think I can merge these two process (the one that reads the file and calls the Synch process for each record) into one process with a while loop... Will that work faster. appreicate if you cna give me suggestions on what my options are.
Thanks

SAP BI 7 - Background process performance Issue
This question is about efficiency of dialog process compared to inefficiency of the background process and I want suggestions from SAP Basis/BI experts on this.
We have observed that our background processes on BI server are not running as efficiently as we would like them to run.
For example
DSO activation:
When I use Dialog mode for DSO Activation with 3 parallel processes, I can activate a certain DSO with in 15 seconds. But the same DSO and the same data package when activated using background mode with 3 parallel process takes about 15 minutes.(there are plenty of background processes available on the system when this activation is running). So dialog process runs 60 times faster than background process.
In BI 7 most of the operations can be executed only in the background parallel mode. And from the activation example we know that our background processes are not as efficient as dialog processes. It
is understood that in general the background processes will not be as efficient as dialog processes, but in our case the difference is a factor of 60. We want help to identify, why the background processes are not as efficient as dialog processes. What SAP Basis settings need to be changed to make them as efficient as we can. Any suggestion or help will be highly appreciated.Hello Eswaran
Generally a dialog process is not faster by any means than a background workprocess. Nevertheless i trust you on your observations, so there must be some difference. I just did a small test, i ran SE16 chose a big table and selected 10000 rows, i did 3 tries in dialog and 3 in background. The results:
dialog: 10.2s, 9.4s, 9.6s
background: 26s, 24s, 24s
So even in my simple example the background execution took more time. The issue here is, that the resulting output (which is pretty large) had to be saved additionally in a spool (a total of 167 pages) when executed in background. The selection of the data certainly did not take more time in either case.
The most important difference between dialog and batch processes is the memory management. Dialog processes work with a shared memory segment (extended memory). Background processes have their private heap memory.
Nevertheless, background processes are not "slower" in general, not at all. You will need to observe closer, what your processes are doing. Maybe watching SM50 while running the DSO activation is enough to see it, maybe you need to trace a process. If you see large spools generated, or huge amounts of memory consumed, we might already have an answer.

Line Split Interface to feed Integration Process - Performance Issues
Hi All
We have a scenario whereby we receive an XML message from a 3rd Party through an exposed SOAP Adapter service. The XML Message has multiple lines that need to be split up and processed as individual messages. We need to create a Line Splitting interface in order to achieve this. The Line Split interface would feed different Integration Processes depending on a specific payload value. The Integration Processes would then perform certain specific logic & Rules as well as transformations to specific message formats (e.g. idoc, xml, flatfile). The Line Split interface also maps from an xml structure that caters for multiple lines, to a flatened xml structure which only contains one line. The uper range of a message we may need to split into individual messages is 30 000 lines.
We first used an Interface Map and used SplitByValue to achieve this, however we ran into the constraint that we could not feed the output split messages to an Integration Process - you can only feed it to Adapters that reside on the J2EE engine.
We then decided to build a seprate Integration Process thats sole purpose was to split the message and route the indvidual messages to other integration processes to perform the logic, business rules and specific transformations. However, the performance of the ccBPM line splitting Integration Process was nowhere near the Interface Map.
e.g. Interface Map Split 1000 Lines = 13 seconds - BPM Integration Process 1000Lines = 100 seconds.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how we can perform the line split outside of BPM, or how we can improve ther performance of the line splitting within BPM?
Thanks for your assistance.

>>>We first used an Interface Map and used SplitByValue to achieve this, however we ran into the constraint that we could not feed the output split messages to an Integration Process - you can only feed it to Adapters that reside on the J2EE engine.
the easiest (not the only) way :
do the split as you did here and post the results in different folders (file adapter)
then set up scenarios that will get the files from those folders
(many additional objects but will be much much faster and better then a BPM)
you could also split the messages in the adapter module but this is more advanced
and officially SAP does not recommend it - even though it's possible

Process flow/map performance issues
We have some issues with our OWB-based application and we're looking to find out if there are different ways we could be using the tool, or features/options we've missed.
We are trying to maintain a near real time feed of data from a front end system into our warehouse which was built using OWB 10.2.0.3 over a 10.2.0.4 database. The bulk of the application consists of OWB maps with a few hand-written PL/SQL objects, all executed in a series of hierachical OWB process flows. Maps/transformations are executed either sequentially or in parallel where the referential integrity of the model allows.
The problem is that we have around 150 tables in the datamart which could potentially require updating on each refresh cycle, although in practice only a few tables have any activity on a typical refresh cycle. The cycle consists of loading data into a set of staging tables, and from there the data is transformed into the main schema, often with multiple maps per target table.
On every cycle we run hundreds of maps, the vast majority of which process zero rows. Each map runs quickly and efficiently in its own right but collectively they add up to a 5 - 10 min cycle even if there is no data to process.
There are 2 avenues which we'd like to explore and would be grateful if anyone could provide any pointers/suggestions :-
1) It appears that each map opens and closes its own database session when it executes. I presume this was done because a single process flow could be constructed with maps executing in different target schemas, but we know that's not the case for us. We'd like to know if there is anyway to configure the database connection at a higher level (eg. process flow) so it opens a connection once and executes each of the maps (database packages) in that one session.
Our DBAs are experimenting with 'shared server' settings at a database level which may help to some degree but won't be the whole story.
2) Another option is simply to run less maps eg. load the staging area as now, collate stats on which staging tables contain new data, and then apply some logic such that subsequent maps only execute if the relevant staging table(s) contain(s) some new data, otherwise bypass that map.
We tried experimenting with the 'Pre Mapping Process' operator, but essentially that just generates another function call from the map package, so we still have the overhead of opening a database session for each map to run the package. Minimal gain.
We thought about adding a function call in the process flow before each map and then branching to either execute/bypass the map as approriate, but the function call still requires opening/closing of a database session each time so, once again, minimal gain.
What we really want is some way for a map or process flow to check without logging onto the database repeatedly.
Any ideas on the above, or other potential solutions anyone could suggest, would be greatly appreciated.Hi,
Please see if these documents help.

RKKBABS0 Performance Issues (Background Processing of CO99) for PM Orders
We are experiencing extremely long run times when batch processing through program RKKBABS0 in ECC 6.0 (just upgraded). The issue appears to be that the program is using the production order numbers to search against the EXKN table which contains no AUFNR or AUFPL information.
Has anyone experienced this same issue and how was it resolved?

Edited by: Ken Lundeen on Apr 9, 2010 9:17 PM Table ESKN(I'm sorry you've waited over a year for a reply.)
We also have performance issue. In our case we do not use Service Entry sheets with maintenance or production orders; AUFNR will not be populated in table ESKN. We are unable to 'complete business' our maintenance and production orders using batch processing because of performance.
We use Oracle database, which uses full table scan in this situation. But Secondary index (MANDT and AUFNR) is of no value anyway, we have about 12 million records with client and blank AUFNR field.
Our solution is a combination of a modification and a new index. OSS pilot note "1532483 - Performance of RKKBABS0 CHECK_ENTRYSHEET when reading ESKN" is a modification which introduces code improvements especially if running in background and closing several orders. Because we only have one client, we also created a new index consisting only of AUFNR. Oracle will not add a row to the secondary index of all fields of the index are null, making our new index very small. We then udpated Oracle stats to ensure Oracle would choose our new index.
We can now 'complete business' a single order online in under a minute, and the batch program runs much more efficiently.
This is not a perfect solution, but it has been a useful workaround for us. I hope this is useful to you. -
Performance issues executing process flows after upgrading db to 10G
We have installed OWF 2.6.2, and initially our database was at 9.2. Last week we updated our database to 10g, and process flow executions are taking a lot longer, from 1 minute to 15 minutes.
Any ideas anyone what could be the cause of this performance issue?
Thanks,
YanetHi,
Oracle10g database behaves differently on the statistics of tables and indexes. So check these and check wether the mappings are updating these statistics at the right moments with respect to the ETL-proces and with the right interval.
Also, check your generated sources on how statistics are gathered (dmbs_stats.gather....). Does the index that might play a vital role in Oracle9i get new statistics, or only the table? Or only the table where doubled in amount of rows by this mapping?
You can always take matter into your own hands, by letting OWB NOT generate the source for gathering statistics, and call your own procedure in a post-mapping.

We have used WSRP Portlet in Webcenter Portal Page. The Portlet is created using JSF Bridge out of ADF Bounded Taskflow.
It is causing Performance issue. Every time static content like js, css and images URLs are downloaded and the URL contain portlet_id and few other dynamic parameters like resource_id, client_id etc.
We are not able to cache these static content as these contains dynamic URL. This ADF Specific images, js and css files are taking longer time to load.

I can't reproduce this because i have issues with creating portlets... If i can solve this issue i will do some testing and see if i can reproduce the issue...
Can you create a new producer with a single portlet that uses a simple taskflow and see if that works?
Are you also using business components in the taskflows or something? You can try removing some parts of the taskflow and test if it works so you can identify the component(s) that causes the issues. -
Info Package in Process Chain - Performance Issue
Dear All,
We have some Info Package in Process Chain which when triggered initially turns red, then again yellow, after sometime red/green. These status keeps changing and finally results in green status. These infopackage takes 15-30 mins to complete.
And the info package error message shows "Processing time overdue". The chain runs daily and this issue also occurs on a daily basis.
Does anyone one of you have an idea of how to deal with this performance issue?
Regards.Hi
As you said--
"initially time out time was set to 10 mins, so it was turning red at 10 mins. Later i changed it to 30 mins, then it is turning red at 30 mins, this info package takes maximum 20 mins to complete.
thatsy i asked whether there will be any problem if we remove this time out time."
I guess, its not mandatory to include the timeout value. Just try to execute the IP without entering the timeout value.
It should work.
Let me know if this helps.

Annotation process tools build performance issue
Annotation process tools is taking 85 minutes to compile page flow files. Is there any suggestion to improve performance.
As you probably already have gathered, you have different execution plans in the two environments. There could be different reason why this happens, for instance different profiles of the data. But more likely it is due to that in the slow environment, the
plan was built from some atypical set of input parameters, which causes a performance issue when the procedure is run in a normal fashion.
When you say that the query has a lot of isnull and convert functions I get a little worried. If it is only in the SELECT list, it's not evil, but if functions are used in the WHERE or ON clauses, the query might benefit from a review, and possibly also
the data model. But this is pure speculation at this point.
I would suggest more than one course of action. As a short-term solution, you run UPDATE STATISTICS WITH FULLSCAN on all tables involved, as out-dated statistics can also be explanation for why you got a bad plan. New statistics should trigger a recompilation.
But even if this resolves the issue, it may not be feasible in the long run, because the events indicate that the query is sensitive to something and the bad plan could come back any day. For this reason, it might be a good idea to make sure that the query
does include inappropriate constructs, and you also need to review that there are good indexes in place.

Performance Issues with Photoshop CS6 64-Bit
Hello -
Issue at hand: over the course of the last few weeks, I have noticed significant issues with performance since the last update to PS CS6 via the Adobe Application Manager, ranging from unexpected shut downs to bringing my workstation to a crawl (literally, my cursor seems to crawl across my displays). I'm curious as to if anyone else is experiencing these issues, or if there is a solution I have not yet tried. Here is a list of actions that result in these performance issues - there are likely more that I have either not experienced due to my frustration, or have not documented as occuring multiple times:
Opening files - results in hanging process, takes 3-10 seconds to resolve
Pasting from clipboard - results in hanging process, takes 3-10 seconds to resolve
Saving files - takes 3-10 seconds to open the dialog, another 3-10 seconds to return to normal window (saving a compressed PNG)
Eyedropper tool - will either crash Photoshop to desktop, or take 5-15 seconds to load
Attempting to navigate any menu - will either crash Photoshop to desktop, or take 5-15 seconds to load
Attempts I've taken to resolve this matter, which have failed:
Uninstalled all fonts that I have added since the last update (this was a pain in the ***, thank you Windows explorer for being glitchy)
Uninstall application and reinstall application
Use 32-bit edition

Performance issue with brand new intel iMac extreme
I am at a loss to explain a problem I've been having and I thought I might put it out to you guys.
In September I purchased a macbook Pro (2.4 ghz, 4 GB RAM) to use in video editing with Final Cut Pro, and for the most part I've been thrilled. I use 1TB LaCie external drives connected via FW800, and perform Multiclip editing with 4-5 video streams at a time and only on occasion have dropped frames during the editing process.
In December I determined that I needed to have an additional system, and thought a 2.8Ghz Intel iMac extreme would be an excellent choice, since for the same price I could get a little more power in the processor, more hard drive space and a bigger screen to work on. When we picked up the new system in the store (The Grove Apple Store in LA), we had them upgrade the memory to 4GB.
Since day one we have had performance issues, including problems playing streaming and DVD video, severe delays mounting and unmounting drives (firewire and USB) and application images, and freezing while doing even simple tasks like printing or checking email. These problems occur even while there are no external drives are connected. I have none of these issues with the Macbook Pro, which has virtually an identical set of programs installed, and both running the same version of Leopard.
I already took the original iMac back to the store, and they exchanged it, but did not have 4GB sets of RAM in stock so they took the RAM from the original machine and put it in the new one. They said if I continued to have problems then it was most likely the RAM and I should come back when they got more in stock. I DID have the same problems with the new machine, and took it back to the Apple Store and they swapped the memory. It seemed to improve the issue, but now I'm seeing the same severe performance issues again.
All tech support can do is tell me to do a PRAM reset, which seems to improve things very temporarily (but that may be my imagination) or have me restart, which at least has the ability to make the printing of documents capable.
What I'm wondering is if it is likely that the RAM is the issue and I just got another bad batch, or if the iMac has some weird glitch that isn't present in the macbook Pro...?? Or could I have possibly gotten 2 bad systems in a row? It's extremely frustrating, and I KNOW it shouldn't be this way! It's so bad I get better performance out of my single-core G5 tower! How do I get a good working system that operates like it should? Am I better off getting another Macbook Pro? I'd rather not for several reasons...
I have xbench on both the MBP and the iMac and can provide test numbers if they'll help, as well as any other info.
Thank you so much for reading my novella of a post and also for any insight you have!
Best,
TravisHi!
I got the same problem with my MacBook when it still was new in may 2006. It was supposed to be one of the faster Laptops around but it was soooo slow it drove me nuts. I can only advise to have a look if there is something hugging up your RAM and run some tests using these programs on your machine:
Xbench:
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10081
MenuMeters:
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10451
If they show any unusual results you might have your problem...
As to my problem with the MacBook: I did a complete re-install (writing the harddisk over with zeroes) and suddenly everything was just fine. (But be sure to back all your files before that, I learned this one the hard way.) I know it is just a standard answer, but it worked out for me this time...
Hope this helps in some ways.
Cheers,
Rene -
Performance issues since upgrade
I am on a late 2011 MacBook Pro and am having severs performance issues since upgrading to Mavericks. I fear my issues may be related to company installed anti-virus (which I cannot remove), but I was hoping someone could look over my EtreCheck for other potential solutions.
One really odd issue I am having, which I cannot seem to find good information for on Google, is at least 4-5 times a day my Mac just stops. No beach ball, no anything, for about 1-5 minutes. Then it's fine. Maybe just me grasping at straws, but it seems related to a when webpage loads a bunch of images? I always use Safari btw, but testing other browsers, like Chrome & Firefox, it happens as well.
I have also removed TotalFinder and have noticed no improvement and still have the above issue.
Thanks in advance!
Here is my EtreCheck:

LR 4.1 RC performance issues
I find that the 4.1 rc version is better than 4.0 but still not snappy like 3.6 was. Here are some things I have noticed that are slow:
• tagging images with flags, colors, labels, etc. - seems to be a two to three second delay when doing this before they register and show up with the files. I have write .xmp off.
• and in regards to writing to xmp off, if I select it, It seems to want to update my whole catalog (148,000 images) and if I try to quit, it promps me that it has not finished and do I want to quit and if I do it will resume upon restarting. At that point when I try to quit, it just hangs even if I tell it to quit writing xmp info. I let it go for a couple hours yesterday and it seems it still didn't finish and caused problems again trying to quit. I ended up having to force quit. I never remember this problem in the past and in the past, if you selected write to xmp or not, it used to do it or not do it from that point forward. Until this is fixed, I have it off and just manually save metadata using Cmd-S.
•When in library mode, moving between images is snappy, however once you go to the develop module, it slows to a snail's pace (3-5 second delay). I know develop module is not as fast in general for moving between images, but in ver. 3.6 there was only a slight delay (maybe 1 sec.). Now I'm bouncing back and forth wasting time switching modules, which brings me to my next performance issue:
* When switching from library to develop, it takes quite a few seconds to respond, then after that it loads the image with the loading... icon/message, and another few seconds are wasted. That used to be almost instantaneous in 3.6. Going to develop to library seems fine with only a slight delay.
• The adjustment brush is faster in 4.1 than 4.0 but not nearly as responsive as in 3.6 which is frustrating and very easy to overdo what you're trying to do by the time the brush catches up.
•Sliders still have a bit of jerkiness to them in develop module. Also sometimes when I grab a scrubby slider to move it, it highlights the field as if I want to enter a number. Wish this would not happen. If I want to enter the number, a single click should do it in the field. If I grab the scrubby slider, it should just activate the scrubby slider.
• Keyword suggestions take much longer to generate. In 3.6 as fast as I'd add keywords, the relevant suggestions would pop up right away.
• When zooming into 100%, it seems to be reasonably fast to render, but I've noticed sometimes it just shows the blurred semi-rendered version without actually rendering 1:1. Even unzooming and rezooming doesn't work. Only solution is to go to another image and then back to the original image and that seems to kick it into gear and re-initialize the rendering engine.
Overall I love the features and new process 2012, I'm just disappointed in the performance. Especially now that I'm trying to edit a large job. I really wish the program could be optimized to work as well as 3.6 did and I hope once the final version of 4.1 is released (hopefully soon) we will see an overall performance boost. I have removed ver 3.6 from my system so that's too much of a hassle to go back and not an option, plus I've gotten used to the new process and like it too much to go back.
From the posts I've read it seems others are experiencing this as well, as well as colleagues I've spoken to. It seems to be across platforms and regardless of computer specs (as long as someone's using a fairly updated and capable computer)
Thanks for working on a performance boost Adobe and getting ver. 4.1 dialed in and releasing a final version.Cannot reproduce on Win7 64Bit (LR4.1RC).
