Performance boost with 10.5.3 and LP 7/multicore ?

There is a HUGE performance boost reported from LP8 users when updating to 10.5.3. They can run up to 40 percent more plugins on 4 and 8 core machines.
I wonder if it is due to the 10.5.3 update or the combination 8.0.2 and 10.5.3.
It would be nice to hear some reports from 7.2 users with 4/8 core Mac:s.
Logic has been optimized for only two cores too long, only been using 50 percent of each core on 4/8 core machines. Maybe 10.5.3 is a booster even for LP7 users?

Here's one person's experience with LP7 and 10.5.3:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7305592#7305592
Disuye,
I've got a Mac Pro with LP 7.2.3 and OSX 10.5.2, and it runs pretty smoothly. I get the occasional core audio overload, but not enough to cause a concern.

Performance Problems with "For all Entries" and a big internal table

We have big Performance Problems with following Statement:
SELECT * FROM zeedmt_zmon INTO TABLE gt_zmon_help
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN gt_zmon_help
    WHERE
    status = 'IAI200' AND
    logdat IN gs_dat AND
    ztrack = gt_zmon_help-ztrack.
In the internal table gt_zmon_help are over 1000000 entries.
Anyone an Idea how to improve the Performance?
Thank you!

You can't expect miracles. With over a million entries in your itab any select is going to take a bit of time. Do you really need all these records in the itab? How many records is the select bringing back? I'm assuming that you have got and are using indexes on your ZEEDMT_ZMON table.
In this situation, I'd first of all try to think of another way of running the query and restricting the amount of data, but if this were not possible I'd just run it in the background and accept that it is going to take a long time.

you do not need nearly as many packages on hold. Haven't logged into my 32-bit arch install for a month now, but I've maintained a xorg 1.4 install with this line just fine:
IgnorePkg = xf86-video-intel xf86-input-evdev xorg-server xorg-apps xorg-xkb-utils xorg-server-utils xorg-utils intel-dri synaptics libgl libdrm xorg-res-utils xf86driproto xf86-input-keyboard xkeyboard-config
That said, I expext to upgrade next time I use it (probably to play around with some fast boot). I would look into troubleshooting with the latest xorg and intel driver as it really should work, if I were you. I presume you have already tried starting x without a xorg.conf as a baseline test with those versions?

Performance Issues with 10.6.7 and External USB Drives

I've had a few performance issues come up with the latest 10.6.7 that seem to be related to external USB drives. I have a 2TB USB drive tha I have my iMovie content on this drive and after 10.6.7 update, iMovie is almost unusable. Finder even seems slow when browsing files on this drive as well. It seems like any access to the drive is delayed in all applications. Before the update, the performance was acceptable, but now it almost unusable. Most of the files on this drive are large dv files.
Anyone else experience this?

If every person who had a performance issue posted to this thread, we'd never find a solution for the initial poster. Let's isolate each case one by one. It is NOT necessarily the same issue, even if the symptoms are the same. There are numerous contributing factors at work with computers, and if we don't isolate them, we'll never get to the root cause.

Performance bottleneck with 2.2.1 and 2008 R2 os VM's

Hi,
I have DL370 g6 with Oracle vm server 2.2.1 installed
*72 GB of Memory and 2 dual + quad core processor*
All VM's are installed on local disk ( 6 300 GB in Raid 5 )*
I have 2 nic connected to siwtch for lan traffic
We have 10 VM's with 2008 R2 OS on it.
The overall performance of these VM's is really horrible.
They are very very very slow
To install Databse on it takes 4 hours even though RAM is 6 GB for each VM
To restar the system it takes around 20 minutes .
Has anybody tried thiese many VM's on 1 server.
Is there any tool or any way i can see what is the issue or is there any bottlneck on the server .
2008 R2 is generally a resource hungry OS but still the overall performance is really horrible

hi,
hdparm -T /dev/cciss/c0d0 which is the drive gives

Performance Problems with UI Element Tabstrip and IE

Hi,
I use the UI Element "Tabstrip" in a Java Web Dynpro Application. The application gets slower the more I jump from one tab to the next. All the other UI Elements (e.g. ComboBox, TextField) are affected, too.
A system trace on the Web AS seems to indicate that it is a client problem.
We are using the Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180 XP SP2 and the J2EE Engine 6.40.
It seems to be a problem with the Tabstrip element in combination with the IE (Firefox 3 works fine). We created a test application with only the tabstrip element, three tabs, and a combo box. After several clicks on the tabs, the test application gets slower...
Does anyone has had the same problem with the tabstrips, or anyone an idea what might be the reason??
Thanks,
Sabine

Performance Issue with calling setTextFormat() over and over... Need to temporarilly disable redraws?

Hello all,
I am running some code which lets me highlight text bits of text found with regular expression.
The code I have works fine
the problem that I am having is that I need to call setTextFormat() over and over again (possibly > 1000 times), and it becomes very slow (possibly because its redrawing over and over).
When commenting out the line with setTextFormat(), it runs brilliantly fast.
Is there a way to disable redraws of the textField while I make the changes to the text format, then redraw it manually?
Any help appreciated!
The code is:
// Find the first result
var pResult:Object = pRegexHighlight.regexp.exec(str);
while(pResult != null)
    // Highlight the match
    var pTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();    pTextFormat.color = 0xff0000;
    textField.setTextFormat(pTextFormat, pResult.index, pResult.index + pResult[0].length);
    // Get the next match
    pResult = pRegexHighlight.regexp.exec(str);

I think you should use a TextArea, and parse the text property. After parsing and adding <font color="#0000FF"></font>, set the result in the htmlText property (but retain the original text in the text property). That way you render once.
If you don't lie the TextArea border and focus outline set thickness of them to 0.

Performance impact with Parent Hierachy 2 and a new dimension

Hello all
I have a Consolidation requirement for which I have two solutions. These are:
Sol A>> Create a new dimension for reporting on accounts.
Sol B>> Create a new Parent Hierarchy in Account dimension.
Please help me on two open questions:
1. If comparing the performance, which solution is better?
2. Which solution has lesser impact on Business rules?
Regards
Abhishek

When you add a memeber into one dimension you have to added also into second dimensions if you are using two dimensions instead of one. So that's means you have doeble maintenance.
Business rules will not be impacted if you are using a second hierachy but it can have an impact in case when you will create a new dimension instead to use a second hierachy.
I Hope this make sense.

Performance testing with PetStore

I'm going to make some performance tests with WebLogic 7.0 and Oracle 8.1.7.
Sun´s PetStore is some kind of basic web application. So I decided to use it for
test application. The PetStore isn´t the best J2EE application, but it suits for
this test just fine.
Has anybody already made database creation clauses or scripts?

I have an iMac with 10.4.11 and a Mac Air 10.6.7. Will the Extreme be compatable with the 10.4.11?

I have an iMac with 10.4.11 and a Mac Air 10.6.7. Will the Extreme be compatable with the 10.4.11?

10.4.11 Macs will have Kernel Panics when trying to use Dual Band Airport Extreme Base Station. There are a few forums here dealing with it. I just purchased an Airport Extreme Base Station and spent two days now figuring out why the old iMac G5 running 10.4.11 (Tiger) was Kernel Panicing. There is a way that I am testing now that seems to be working. I will post the link in a minute when I find it. Other solution is to upgrade to 10.5 .
Here is the post
Aug 22, 2010 2:09 PM (in response to Acin)
Greetings... I have just found a resolution to this problem, at lease if you're using one of the newer Dual Band Airport Extreme base stations. This fix was provided by an AppleCare representative named Rebecca, and I am deeply in her debt. To review: MY PROBLEM - After installing a new Dual Band Airport Extreme in July 2010, I began to have frequent kernel panics with my older laptops running Tiger (10.4.11). My newer Intel/Leopard MacBook Pro ran fine with the new base station, but these older Power PC Macs with Tiger just crashed again and again. Pulling the Airport Card was the only fix. I tried every conceivable software and network fix; nothing helped. THE SOLUTION - The AppleCare rep talked me through this, but I'm pretty sure this was the procedure. Please note that I cannot guarantee that I have not forgotten a step! But I am fairly sure this is it. (If an Apple specialist is reading, please check this!) Keep in mind, this will only work if you have a dual-band Airport base station. I performed this on a Mac Pro running OS 10.6.4, with Airport Utility version 5.5.1 and firmware 7.5. 1. Launch Airport Utility.
2. With the dual-band base station selected, click Manual Setup.
3. Click the Wireless tab.
4. Click the "Wireless Network Options" button near the bottom.
5. Check the box that says "5 GHz Network," then enter a new network name in the Name field. (Your existing network name appears there now. Just delete it and type a new one.)
6. Click Done. That dialogue will close.
7. Now click Update. The Airport base station will now take about a minute to reboot. Here's what happens when you perform these steps... The utility changes your existing Airport network to 2.5 Ghz, and then creates a new 5 Ghz network with the new name. (It will apply the same password to both.) You will use the 5 Ghz network, the new name, for any new wireless computers using Leopard or newer OS. You will use the 2.5 Ghz network (bearing the original network name) for the older laptops running Tiger. This fix worked immediately, no problems. The issue is that Tiger does not perform well with 5 Ghz networks, and this causes the kernel panics. I now have two old G4 laptops running Tiger, both using my new Airport base station with the 2.5 Ghz network and running perfectly. At the same time, my new machine is using the 5 Ghz network at the same time. It seems quite stable. Good luck, and I hope this info is useful.

Performance issue with form after 10g upgrade

Hi Team,
Last week we have upgraded our systems to 10g database.
Ever since we did an upgrade there is a huge performance issues with the custom forms and this is causing a major setback to our business. Before the upgrade the forms were running with our any performance issues.
Can anyone please help me in finding out the reason behind the performance issue(May be a tar or performance tuning).
Many Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Kumar

Like Jan said,
You must supply more information so we can help you, like where the degradation happens?, in processing? in navigation? in forms loading?? where?
You may also do a little test. Create a one button form, just a canvas and a button, you can include a message in when-button-pressed trigger.
run it and see what happens.

8.0.2 and new ram, performance boost or waste of time?

Hi all,
I am going to add more ram to my MacBook. I understand that my MacBook officially only accepts of 2GB of ram (2x 1 gig sticks)I have read that many folks have put 4 gigs in a 2x2 gig matched pair configuration in there machine to get a maximum of 3 gigs. As I understand it this is not a supported configuration.
I don't mind paying for 4 gigs to only 3 my question is, would this make Logic unstable? I only use this machine for Logic and the apps that come with Logic Studio 1. I only go on line with it for updates and such so my main concern is keeping this machine stable for Logic.
Also I am imaging that increasing ram from 1 gig to even just the 2 that is officially supported will give me a bit of a performance boost but in what ways will I notice it in relation to Logics performance?
Also any recommendations for RAM in the UK would be very welcome.
Sorry for such a dull question,
Regards,
Jay

Hey Notefarm, a lot of my friends ( including myself and I noticed somebody else linked it here as well the other day ) use Crucial because of the macapp you can download which will tell you want you can have RAM wise and how much it's gonna cost you.

Performance difference with my MBP 15" 2010 and the new 2011 one(gaming?)

Hey guys,
I have a 2.67 i7 2010 15" MPB(the higher end model)that I got last year. I use it for work and for college but I also like to play games on it.
I recently got an Apple newsletter as I noticed the huge performance boost of the newer models. I went to a review site and my specific model nearly doubled in benchmark scores with the newer model. That doesn't seem like something that would normally happen. It seems like a rarity thats just too good to ignore. And this summer with the semesters being over I probably will go back to full on gaming(probably Portal 2 and WoW for the summer).
My question to you is, since I can't go by the opinion of one site, what is the performance difference between the 2010 model I have and the newer 2011 one? Basically I am wondering if its worth it to sell it for several hundred dollars less than I payed for it and get the newer model now, or wait until 2012 to get the newest model then(if its going to be an even bigger difference in performance)?
Excuse my poor judgement if I'm wrong, I probably seem like a maniac for using this comp for a year and already wanting to get the newer model. Its just that a lot of sites are making it seem like my model is fodder compared to the newer ones, and if so I might not let this offer pass by.

bump for good measures!

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

Thanks Kelly,
The answers would be the following:
1200 cells per custom section (NEW COUNT), and up to 30 custom sections per spec.
Assuming all will be populated, and this would apply to all final material specs in the system which could be ~25% of all material specs.
The cells will be numeric, free text, drop downs, and some calculated numeric.
Are we reaching the limits for UI performance?
Thanks

Performance issues with Oracle EE 9.2.0.4 and RedHat 2.1

Hello,
I am having some serious performance issues with Oracle Enterprise Edition 9.2.0.4 and RedHat Linux 2.1. The processor goes berserk at 100% for long (some 5 min.) periods of time, and all the ram memory gets used.
Some environment characteristics:
Machine: Intel Pentium IV 2.0GHz with 1GB of RAM.
OS: RedHat Linux 2.1 Enterprise.
Oracle: Oracle Enterprise Edition 9.2.0.4
Application: We have a small web-application with 10 users (for now) and very basic queries (all in stored procedures). Also we use the latest version of ODP.NET with default connection settings (some low pooling, etc).
Does anyone know what could be going on?
Is anybody else having this similar behavior?
We change from SQL-Server so we are not the world expert on the matter. But we want a reliable system nonetheless.
Please help us out, gives some tips, tricks, or guides
Thanks to all,
Frank

Thank you very much and sorry I couldnt write sooner. It seems that the administrator doesnt see the kswap going on so much, so I dont really know what is going on.
We are looking at some queries and some indexing but this is nuts, if I had some poor queries, which we dont really, the server would show pick right?
But he goes crazy and has two oracle processes taking all the resources. There seems to be little swapping going on.
Son now what? They are all ready talking about MS-SQL please help me out here, this is crazy!!!
We have, may be the most powerful combinations here. What is oracle doing?
We even kill the Working Process of the IIS and have no one do anything with the database and still dose two processes going on.
Can some one help me?
Thanks,
Frank
