Performance benchmarks within BPC

Has anyone ever performed any benchmarks with BPC?
I know there is such a wide spectrum of elements that go into benchmarking a BPC solution that most benchmarks can not easily be correlated to each other. (i.e., Platform, environment, dimensionality, hierarchies u2026) Any estimates would be a great benefit.
Iu2019m hoping someone has performed some serious performance benchmarks such as;
u2022 Data throughput, (time to submit data such as 1000 cells per minute).
u2022 Query time, (x row by x column expansion and query).
Thanks in advance for your input and assistance!

Hi David,
I agree with you about your point on performance benchmarks. However I don't know if you are already aware of the performance tuining guide available at:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/9016a6b9-3309-2b10-2d91-8233450139c1
Also you may want to have a look at OSS note 1124332.

(268625273) Q WSI-29 Can you give any performance benchmarks for WLS web services?

Q<WSI-29> Can you give any performance benchmarks for WLS web services?
A<WSI-29>: It is very difficult to quantify performance aspects of web services
since they depend on so many variables including but not limited to: backend system
processing by stateless session beans and message driven beans, size of XML SOAP
message sent, system hardware (CPU speed, parallel processing, RAM speed) and
system software (JVM type and version of WebLogic server). However, let me point
out that the EJB backend processing of requests both have the best possible scalability
within the EJB2.0 specification (both stateless session and message driven beans
can be pooled) and servlets have a proven scalable track record. Thus it should
be possible to scale your web service deployment to meet demand. The overhead
in processing XML within the servlet can be significant depending on the size
of XML data (either as a parameter or a return type). While WLS6.1 does not have
any features to address this performance concern, WLS7.0 will feature Serializer
and Deserializer classes which can be dedicated to the XML to Java and Java to
XML translation (they can also be automatically be generated from a DTD, XML Schema
or regular JavaBean).
It is true that web services are not the fastest way to process client requests
but BEA is committed to making WebLogic server the fastest possible service provider.

Are there any performance benchmark tools for Flash?

I am looking to benchmark Flash on various computers that I use. I was surprised that the performance of Adobe Flash on my Intel i5 computer running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS and IE 10 was MUCH WORSE than running on a Windows 7 Pro 32-bit on an Intel i3 computer running the same browser.
I have tried running both 32-bit IE and 64-bit IE and get the same general bad performance on the 64-bit Windows OS. I would like to find a tool to benchmark these various computers so that I can establish baseline performance while I explore finding a fix Adobe Flash on a 64-bit OS.
Can someone suggest some tools for Flash performance benchmarking? Thank you.

The best advise we can really give you is that both companies offer free trials and you should download them both and see which works best for you. I own Parallels Desktop v6, and VMWare Fusion v3. For me, VMWare s better for some things, but Parallels is better for most. Depending on what you do and how you use your applications your milage may vary.
One other note to keep in mind. Since Apple is looking to release a new OS version in the very near future, you might want to hold-off a bit on our vitualization choice just yet. I would exect that both companies will be working on a new release for support/compatibilty of the new MacOS, so you might want to wait to see if there are any other changes that make you want to lean towards one or the other...

Performance benchmarks Win XP

Does anyone know if there are any performance benchmarks available for Windows XP (via Boot Camp) running on various different Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, and iMac machines?
I assume the more RAM, the greater BUS speed, the faster and more numerous the processors the better performance but I was looking for objective numbers to help me decide what system to buy.. I know that one of the PC site rated Windows on a Mac laptop very fast.

Well, I don't know that anyone has run such benchmarks, but it's logical to assume that the faster the machine the faster XP will run on a Boot Camp installation since Windows is running natively on the hardware as though it were a normal PC. What's important to you - speed or mobility? If speed then get a Mac Pro. If mobility then get a MacBook Pro.

How to run a top down allocation within BPC NW

Hi,
I tried to reply the "How to run a top down allocation within BPC NW" i've found in the SDN download area. I made step by step the same of the paper i check several times all the Scripts the package, the process chain, but i haven't found any mistake.
I made from the beginning in another appset, copy from appshell
But my result isn't the same as in the paper. My final template is empty without data.
After running the package (it ends without error) i check the detail and in the formula log
in some lines it says things like "No records generated" or "records queried out".
I don't know what happens.
Anybody who had tried before, could help me?
Thanx in advance

Hi,
Based on the Entity dimension sheet provided in the How to guide, the allocation should be done in the ratio of 15:70:5:10. If you have maintained the same and the amount you want to allocate is 50000, then the allocation will be 7500, 35000, 2500, and 5000.
Hope this helps.

How Tou2026 Create Custom Menu within BPC NW - OPENFILE issue

Hi Guys,
I built a custom menu in BPC 7.5 using the step-by-step procedure available in u201CHow Tou2026 Create Custom Menu within BPC NWu201D. It uses the OPENFILE option with EvMnu to open dynamic templates describing this limit:
The OPENFILE option within the NW Version can only open workbooks from cached directories in local PC. Therefore, it is a best practice to ensure that OPENFILE only refers to templates that are available as dynamic templates that are cached (updated template version) on all client PCs that are using the EvMnu based workbook.
At the moment Iu2019m working with more than 40 users, which surely will increase. So, I have to find others solutions or automate the local saving:
- Do I have to ask our users to save locally all dynamic templates?
- Do you know if I can save automatically (not manually one-by-one) all dynamic templates in all client PCs allowing the OPENFILE option to work correctly?
- Do you know if there are others solutions, like commands or macro (not BPF), to open dynamic templates from custom menu without local saving?
Thanks for your answers.

Hi Nilanjan,
Thank you for your quick answer. I need to open a single dynamic report for each link, not the complete report folder.
OPENWEBFOLDER works correctly, but unluckily it doesnu2019t cover my issue.
OPENWEBFILE could be the solution, but it doesnu2019t work. I used this syntax:
=EVMNU("OPENWEBFILE"," optional text ","REPORTS\TestReport.xlt")
Clicking it, the system shows this message u201COPENWEBFILE: macro not supportedu201D.
Do you know if OPENWEBFILE works correctly in BPC 7.5 NW?
Thanks for your support.

It is it possible to perform additions within a cell?

Using the latest version of "numbers" and the latest Mac OS It is it possible to perform additions within a single cell, for example, adding numbers within a cell like 100+100 and have the sum within the same cell?

Hi Leo,
Formula =100+100
Yes, I sometimes use that as a calculator.

Performance benchmarks?

Hello,
Has anyone done any performance benchmarking on Portal Server? (Or know
where I can find such information?)
I'm curious to know:
1. Given iPlanet's recommended hardware, how many concurrent users does
this support with decent performance (SSL to gateway to non-SSL server)?
2. How does the product scale...e.g. if I wanted to have 250 concurrent
gateway users (running SSL), what hardware is recommended? 500 users?
1000 users?
3. Has anyone tried (or does the product even support) the use of SSL
accelerator cards on the gateway machine?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Murray

Hi.
We did some benchmarking in january, at the SUN iforce center in holland,
using iPlanet Portal Server SP2 Hotpatch3.
We focused on measuring:
1) Average time to log in to portal(with default channels, netlet set up) as
a function of simultaneous users
2) Average time to do a "standard operation" inside portal.
Our results supported the numbers from iPlanet saying thath one could have
250 simultaneous "secure" users pr CPU in this setup. (SP2 HP3)
This "guaranteed" number of simultaneous users pr CPU for iPS 3 SP3 is said
to be increased to 1500.
We used SUN E 220 s with 2x450 MHZ CPUs and 1 G RAM.
The performance increased remarkable when we went from gateway and server on
1 machine, to separate gateway and server.

Any performance benchmarks Jserv and OC4J

Are any performance benchmarks available for OC4J and Jserv?
Satish

I had the Seagate 100 GB, 7200 rpm drive in my previous MacBook Pro Core Duo. But when I upgraded to a new MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo recently, I opted for the 160 GB, 5400 rpm drive (I got an Hitachi) because I also found the older 100 GB drive to be a bit small for my needs.
I was concerned about performance at first too, but after I got the new machine and used it for a while, I realized that the real world performance difference between the 5400 and 7200 drive was negligible at best (at least for the things I do, which includes some video editing, music production, software development, and games). In fact, I really couldn't tell the difference between the drives. And tests done by Bare Feats actually show that the 5400 rpm drive outperforms the 7200 rpm drive when you have 74 GB of data or more. (http://barefeats.com/mbcd7.html)
So if you need the extra storage capacity, you can't go wrong with the new 160 GB, 5400 rpm drive. I highly recommend it.
I hope this helps!

Performance Benchmarks for WL

Does anyone know what the definition of a "Transaction" is in the performance benchmarks published by Bea?
How many session bean calls, entity beans calls, etc.
THanks

If you want to stick with Sun jdk, and don't want to see the error
messages, set weblogic.system.nativeIO.enable=false in
weblogic.properties. I wouldn't go to NT, because if you can afford it
Solaris on SPARC will be your fastest most reliable platform. We have
Solaris SPARC for production, and do our development on Lintel. For us
staying in a POSIX environment overall keeps things like startup,
environment setting, and make type scripts all on the same page.

Running custom packages within BPC 5.1

Hi,
Current Enviroment:
BPC Ver: 5.1
SQL Server: SQL 2005
I have used earlier versions of BPC 5.1 which used SQL 2000 as a back end and was able to utlise functionailty within the EVMODIFYSCRIPT object to perform certian SQL based tasks such as creating a new bespoket table.
In trying to re-perform the same process with BPC 5.1 and SQL 2005 I am unable to run a simialr bespoke package from DataManager.   To highligh the problem I have included below the syntax that I once used for SQL 2000 (- which worked in the earlier version of BPC 5.1) and which will now not not work with BPC 5.1 and I am not sure if it is because SQL 2005 requires a different aproach for the syntax it will accept or whether it is because the EVMODIFYSCRIPT object which has now become a MODIFYSCRIPT variable and as a result has lost some of its functionailty.
The syntax (as an example) for SQL 2000 that I have used successfuly in the past would have been something like the following:
PROMPT(TEXT,%CATGVALUE%,"Enter the category for the current year",,"actual,budget")
TASK(EXCUTESQL,SQLSTATEMENT,%SQLSTRING%)
BEGINFO (%SQLSTRING%)
SELECT * INTO COPYTBLFACTWB WHERE CATEGORY IN (%CATGVALUE%)
ENDINFO
The above syntax runs fine in Visual Studio 2005 Integrated Services however it fails (with no indication of why) when run from BPC .. any thoughts on what I may be doing wrong ?
Thanks

I've never had any success directly updating a Package Variable from within the MODIFYSCRIPT value.   In DTS you could modify a GLOBAL Variable from the EvModifyScript task and the package could utilize that value. However, in SSIS, the GLOBAL Variable no longer exists and Package Variables have "replaced" them. But I do not believe the EvModifyScript Task replacement of the variable MODIFYSCRIPT has the ability to directly update a Package Variable.
However, within the MODIFYSCRIPT value, you can update properties of the tasks and connections included in a package.
In your scenario, you could use a Prompt and dynamically build the sql statement with the variable holding the user provided value. Then passed the sql statement to the property of the Execute SQL Task.
ie:
<<in the MODIFYSCRIPT -- not exact code, just off the top of my head so I might have some syntax wrong>>
PROMPT(TEXT,%USERINPUT%,"Enter value",)
BEGININFO(%SQLQUERY%)
    Insert Into tblFac2Finance
    Select * from tblFactFinance
    Where Category=%USERINPUT%
ENDINFO
TASK(Execute SQL Task, SQLSTATEMENTSOURCE,%SQLQUERY%)
But if you wish to provide the user with member selectors for the input, you could use the SELECTINPUT prompt with the appropriate dimensions.   The user selections are then recorded in a txt file within the PrivatePublications Temp directory for the user executing the package. The location of this file is stored in the BPC MODIFYSCRIPT variable %SELECTIONFILE%. I have created packages with a flat file connection that can be updated in the MODIFYSCRIPT with the selectionfile location.
CONNECTION(UserSelectionFile,CONNECTIONSTRING,%SELECTIONFILE%)
Then within the package, I add a Script task that performs file processing against the UserSelectionFile to parse the values into the appropriate package variables that can then be used throughout the package.
I would be very interested in discovering a more direct way to update a package variable from within the MODIFYSCRIPT.
Hope this helps,

Performance, Benchmark for Oracle XE

My buisness would like to use Oracle XE as a starter base installation for customers, so that they can easly upgrade to an full Oracle SE or EE later. However I fail to find benchmark tests (like tpc.org) which give an image of the performance of the Oracle XE and how it compares to other databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL in the smaller application market segment that XE is targeting.
We have been running som tests in house, but the currently I must say they are not in the Oracle XE favour. This is disapointing, as we would want to avoid for our customers to start of with a DB other than Oracle, then do an transistion to Oracle SE or EE when the need is there.
We are working on tuning/optimizing the database to perform better. Nevertheless it would be really interesting to see some benchmarks / comparison of the performance between Oracle XE an other DBMS in this segment of the DB market. Beeing well aware that their is not necessarely one database that fits each application/segment best, such a test would be informative. And also great input for my company when choosing which DB to use. Does anyone have any experience on this subject any feedback is highly appreciated. If anyone is interested I would be glad to post details regarding our tesing in house.
Cheers

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Being well aware of the complexity of optimizing application performance I am simply trying to find as many inputs as possible to make a decision. A benchmark test would for me not yield "the truth" in any way, but simply be another parameter to consider. I am also aware that Oracle DB has several features that other DBs don't have.
You hit the nail on you assumption:
2) use only the very basic features of both DBsThis is correct. We are using a EJB3.0 (Hibernate) environment togheter with JBOSS 4.0.5 application server, using no specific DB implementation. I realize that at some point, to acheive max performance, one should would have to implement code optimized for a specific DB. But right now I am interested in maximizing the performance with no specific DB code. We started out using Oracle XE, and it was doing well. We than switched to Mysql mainly for curiousity, and the performance was much better "out-of-the-box". ( x 2,5!) using less CPU -20%) an memory than Oracle XE. This was a suprising result for me, and now I would like to know why.
If the reason is that Oracle uses more resource for background processes like gathering statistics etc. this is a feasable explanation. Also in a larger system, if these processes take more or less the same resources, they would make out a smaller part of the total available resources. Right now I can't explain the performance gap, I simply observe the test results but cannot explain them.
As my demands to the DB features are limited (basic ER datatypes, incremental backup), is there perhaps a way to "disable advanced features" of Oracle XE, so that more CPU power is available to the application?
Also, how well does the JBOSS app. server integrate with the Oracle DB? Would the Oracle XE perform better with an Oracle App.server?
My application has a typical web-app, having mainly read queries with a high peak load (burst). I have tried tuning the connection pool etc. but no improvment. It is quite possible that I have reached the limit of performance of the Oracle XE, perhaps I am trying to use it for something it was not intended for? Having said this I would prefer to continue using Oracle XE, but it would be nice to know the reasons for the difference in performance.
Any feedback is highly appreciated.
