Prompt performance and Constrain problem

Hi All,
I am facing a performance issue in the report prompts.
For a report i have week start date and week end date
and i constrain them in the prompt.So,it fetches only one week end date for a start date.
but the requirement is to see all the week end dates so that they can view data for a bigger data set.
But this fetches all dates other than the required ones.and the time taken is also more.
Can we have any functionality in obiee, so that it fetches all the dates (including the corresponding week end date and above), leaving apart the previous dates(dates below the week start date)
Let me know your suggestions.

Performance and Stability Problem with PE9

I just upgraded my computer to a Core i5 with 8G of memory and everything is running much faster. But my NEW PE9 just run very slow. Some of the simple tasks take 10-30 second to complete. Even Windows 7 will often come out to ask if I want to wait for PE9 to wake up or kill the process. When I want to change the size of a video clip, it just doesn't work at all due to performance. It will take PE9 20-30 seconds to resize the video clip. Without some realtime feedback of the size, it is impossible to do the resizing and this is a very fundamental operation. PE9 often crash or seize up as well, I didn't have any of these problem with PE3.0. I upgraded to PE9 simply because my PE3.0 for WIndows XP is not comletely compatible with Windows 7 (some of the text displace does not show up).
Do anyone else have issue with performance and stability?

Performance and usability problems with Illustrator imports

I am usually an enthusiast advocate for Adobe Software. As a UI/Interaction designer I regularly showcase your products as a shining example.
That's why I am somewhat frustrated about the Flash Catalyst Beta. I trust you guys to come out with SOMETHING GREAT eventually, but I have just spend an entire day with Catalyst and it was not particularly a joy. Couldn't you have released it a bit later to save me the frustration?
Situation:
- Medium size Adobe Illustrator CS4 import (10 screens/stages with 20-100 Illustrator objects per screen)
- Target : 800x600 embedded UI for medical product
- Illustrator file chosen as starting point
Performance / reliability problems include
- Crashing (Vista Core2Duo with 2gig of Ram)
- Super poor performance (wait 8 seconds to hide/show a layer)
- No show of thumbnail images anywhere
- No matching of document size (exact 800x600 from Illustrator became 800x599)
- Playing the file did not work
Usability issues
- Poor test display
- Poor match with Illustrator file (things seem to be rendered differently!)
- Window selecting does not work well
- No hand tool
- No ability to lock layers
- Cluttered interface (Not enough space for the "stage"or what you call it)
- No way to resize Illustrator elements from one of 9 edge/center points
- etc. etc.
Building a wireframe version from the ground up (with Illustrator import) seemed to work fine
I played around with the MS Blend beta for a while, and while the basic concept of your product is much more clear, the execution of the MS product in the beta phase was lightyears ahead in terms of stability and usability
I'm sure you can do better!
Koen

Koen,
Thank you for the detailed feedback about the performance problems you have experienced and your thoughts about features you would like. Let me respond to each of your points
Performance: We are aware that Catalyst doesn't perform well with large complex files. We have made many performance improvements since the current plublic beta, so you should find Catalyst more responsive with larger projects when the next beta is posted.
Here are a few things you can do to work around the performance issues you are seeing with the current beta:
- Consider rasterizing complex elements that don't need to scaled in Catalyst
- In Catalst turn complex artwork into optimized graphics using the "Convert to optimized graphics" in the float HUD (heads up display panel)
We have also found that particularly on Windows that Catalyst can run out of memory with large files. This area is also being worked on so stay tuned for the next beta.
Features:
- Poor test display [tv] Do you mean the design display doesn't match the appearance of the published project?
- Poor match with Illustrator file (things seem to be rendered differently!) [tv] we have fixed a lot of bugs here. Expect this to improve a lot in the next beta
- No hand tool - [tv] coming soon :-)
- No ability to lock layers [tv] coming soon :-)
- Cluttered interface (Not enough space for the "stage"or what you call it) [tv] Yes, Catalyst currently cannot dock/undock panels
- No way to resize Illustrator elements from one of 9 edge/center points [tv] This is also a known limitation. I agree it is useful
I hope the next beta comes closer to meeting your expectations. A lot of performance work and new features has been done since the last public posting, so look forward to beta II.

Performance and memory problems

Hello.
I've installed Oracle AS 10g in Redhat Linux EL 3. The machine has 3 GB of memory, 2 GB of swap. Its a dual Xeon 2.6 Ghz.
Imagine i reboot the machine. Everything works fine. The problem is, in 6 days, it fills all the swap memory and almost the memory available. If it reaches this values, the machine gets so slow... To correct temporary the situation, i need to perform a reboot. But the question is this is Linux, not windows...
Does anyone has an ideia why this is happening?? i've never seen something like this... after 6 days, the only memory available of 5 GB are 30 MB... this is not possible.
Help please !

We are with the same problem. We read a lot about the vm in the RHAS 3.0. The vm was improved but, with bugs. We found a lot of inactive pages that, after the clean state, does'nt deallocate properly. This makes the thread kernel "kswapd" works a lot, taking all the cpu in the io process.
There is a known bug related to "kswapd" thread in the RHAS 3.0 kernel. The RedHat promess to solve the problem in the nexts releases (I really doubt it, because there was already 3 releases after its announces).
We have checked some strange behaviors too... The machines with Linux RH AS 3.0 + Oracle products (OracleDB and OracleIAS) are freezing randomically. We think that the shared memory are allocating kernel space pages, but we didn't found any evidences yet.
The workarounds (not tested yet):
- Upgrade to the latest kernel.
or
- Use the hugemem kernel (even when using less than 16GB of RAM, some guys reported that this solve the problem)
or
- Compiling a clean kernel directly from kernel.org. In this case, we don't have support from Oracle, but maybe the problem could be resolved until RH publish some bugless vm code with your kernel.

Performance and Contention problem with the database ?

Hello!
I am having one database which is used by around 95 thousand
users.Database contain about 4 lakh records. The database is
going smooth and perfect.
The problem(perfomance is slow and there is contension too) came
when i made 4 web applications which contain atleast 1000 hits
(1000 records are inserted in the database ) per day.
Now the db is not going so smooth(contention and performance
problem).
I think this is happening becuase of those 4 web applications.
So should i make new database for that 4 applications or i need
to get the new system for it or there is another way through i
can tune my running database.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Seemab

Hi,
If i well understand, u have one database and u insert 4000 rows
per day and u have performance problem ?
I think u have a big problem cause it's not really a big
intensity on a base. So u should have big problems on ur
database design such as undersized memory area, bad disk
repartition, bad types of indexes or something like that.
To decrease the contention, u should separate ur data and index
datafiles over differents disks and specialize tablespace by the
granularity of the table.
But u r not enough precise to expect a precise answer; could u
be more precise ? as the server u have, data volumes, a select *
from v$system_event, etc...
Good Luck,

Xorg using 30% cpu when idle,slow performance and video problems

I'm having a problem with Xorg, I don't know what it is but I guess it has something to do with configuration problems because in Ubuntu eerything works out of the box.
My problems are these:
1. Xorg is using arround 30% cpu when the computer is idle and very simple animations in kde like minimize a window are performed very poorly.
2. Compiz' performance is very poor and chopy

Speed & Performance and other problems!!!!

Hi there,
I have had my Mac Mini for about 9 months now and within the last 2 weeks there has been a significant drop in speed and performance of it. Booting up seems to take forever compared to previously and very often when I am in the middle of doing something it freezes, i get the rainbow wheel, and have to wait for a little while for it to start responding again!! I think that this started shortly after I had another problem (wasnt booting at all!!) where I was advised by Apple Support to reset the PRAM.
What I have done so far:
- Checked the free space; I have around 8gb of free disc space
- Run YASU; after reading previous posts I ran this program
- Repaired disk permissions and verified the disk.
Does anybody have any further suggestions.....its driving me crazy!!?!!
There are 2 other key problems that I have with the Mini that are more of an annoyance than anything else, but none the less would be good to get some advice:
- Sometimes (Intermittently) there is no sound device showing on the mini; if I look in the device's it just says that there is no sound device connected!!?!
- Also when putting many CD's in the mini it does not play it and then will not eject the disc until i restart!!
Any help would be very much appreciated!!!

Performance and Memory Problems on OSX

Firefox seems to have some sort of memory leak. Even once I remove all the add-ons, and no matter which web pages, after about a day, Firefox is slow and I have to restart the browser. When using the diagnostics within Mac OSX, Firefox is consuming twice as much memory as Safari and is consistently the biggest CPU consumer. It would be nice if someone profiled the code and actually made sure it was optimized.

Performance and bios problems with K8T

Hi, I recently installed a new graphics card (6800 LE) but when I went to benchmark it the scores were way down, 6377 in 3dmark 03 and 28,421 in Aquamark, and that was after I had installed the latest bios and mobo drivers from MSI, unlocked the cards pipelines to 16 and shaders to 6, installed the latest XG Nvidia drivers (80.40 ) and checked about everything else I could think of.
I looked at RivaTuner and in the Northbridge info it said AGP status - disabled and in the Display Adaptor info, AGP status - disabled. In the bios the setting for AGP is greyed out ( or blued out ) so I am unable to set it to 8X or even check what it is set for.
Just to add the icing on the cake I now find that I can't get into bios with my existing keyboard as it's a USB model. I refitted my old ps2 keyboard and got into bios where I enabled the setting for legacy devices but there was no setting for usb 1.1 port 64/60 Emulation as listed in the manua.
Any assistance on any of these problems would be gratefully received. Tal

I reloaded the 4 in 1 drivers and the XG 80.40 graphics drivers and my bechmarks soared. Thank a lot Tiresmoke.

Performance and Usability Problems-Aperture 3.1.3 and 10.7.1

Late 2009 iMac
Quad Core i7
8 GB RAM
512 ATI GPU
Nik Software Complete Collection Plugins—all updated
I’m guessing this is due to memory leaks, but Aperture is crippled with 10.7.1. On my great iMac, Aperture now runs like it did when I ran Aperture 2 on a 2004 PowerBook G4.
With Snow Leopard, I had none of these issues.
With Aperture idle, it uses up to 2 GB real memory and 3 GB virtual memory. With it idle, it generates MBs of page outs and swap used. If I start to use it for adjustments, even minor ones, page outs and swap used increase dramatically. For example, last night after editing and adjusting a project of images, page outs were just under 5 GB. I’ve reverted to the old habit of rebooting to clear page outs and swaps. Last time I had to do this was with the 2004 PowerBook.
While actually using Aperture for edits and adjustments, response to almost any input is slow, with conspicuous delays. Even checking and unchecking an adjustment brick causes a considerable delay between the click and when the change is visible.
Again, with Snow Leopard, Aperture was a bullet with current configuration. I just ordered 8 more GBs of RAM in hopes that this will help until Apple fixes Aperture.
Anyone else having such considerable performance issues with Aperture 3.1.3 and 10.7.1?
Thanks

jcrosby wrote:The "individual setup" argument is an oversimplification. With relatively current hardware, I can reproduce very poor performance when running Aperture in Lion in either 32-bit or 63-bit mode (though the patterns change a bit), and so can many others.
John-
Actually I do think it is about individual setups. The kinds of complaints expressed in this thread have been going on literally for decades.
Starting with early-days Photoshop then later Aperture I have observed the challenges of heavy graphics apps with hardware/RAM/OSs/app versions. We have always been able to reproduce poor performance, because apps/OSs generally do evolve to be more demanding.
IMO our goal is to help individual setups tweak to achieve non-poor performance while we wait for stronger hardware, or an OS improvement, or an app improvement, or money to buy more RAM, or whatever. IMO it really is an ongoing individual-setup (e.g. last year I was running a 2006 C2D MBP with a max of 3 GB RAM requiring constant tweaking) issue.
Today I run Aperture under 10.6.8 on a 2011 MBP with SSD and 8 GB RAM and it rocks. I would consider 10.6.8 to be one of the tweaks that folks might do if all the other tweaks (like add RAM and run 32-bit) fail to achieve non-poor performance.

Photoshop performance and redraw problems

Hello,
I'm running Photoshop CS5.1 x64 12.1 on a Windows 7 SP1 machine with all updates installed and the latest AMD 13.9 drivers for my HD6850 card. The PC has 8GB RAM.
Whenever I zoom in, there is an annoying redraw effect whereby the image "tears" as it's redrawn in "squares". This is not the usual vsyncless tear because if i simply scroll the image left and right it does not happen. To fix this, I can enable OpenGL and the tearing will be gone. However, when OpenGL is enabled the brushes lag quite badly. Sometimes it takes a full second from the moment I start a stroke to the moment it appears on screen. I've set OpenGL to basic and disabled all other options such as vsync and anti-aliasing. I've tried setting the cache levels to 8 and all cache tile sizes, restarting PS after each setting change. I've found it impossible to eliminate PS's non-OpenGL zoom tearing and brush lag when OpenGL is enabled, so I'm forced to fix one and live with the other.
I'd appreciate any advice, thank you.

I guess you'll have worked through the steps in this link?
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-performance-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html
It sounds like you are seeing the tiles that Photoshop splits the screen into. You really need Chris Cox to give you the best settings and other advice, but this might be one of those times when the 'Tall and thin/Default/Big and fat' options make a difference. I'm going to hazard a guess that setting a smaller tile size would be best. Short of a system upgrade that is.

Slow performance and display problems

I've already submitted this question, but thought I would change the subject to make it more descriptive:
I just recently installed Acrobat 8 Professional on an older machine that I have. It is running Windows XP Professional SP3, processor 2.4GHz with 512 RAM. It has only MS Office and Acrobat loaded on it.
I can create a PDF document, but when I pull up the Properties menu, the program seems to have a delayed response and also it has garbled text and you can see everything from the document showing through on the menu so you can't read the menu.
Could this be a memory issue or is there something else that I need to check. Thanks.

Performance with repaint problem

Hi,
I have a performance and repaint problem.
My problem is than I have a layer pane with about 500 JScrollPane, each JScrollPane has a JLabel, and each JLabel has an Icon. I can have to maintain this hierarchy.
I have a thread that makes the icon change from a color state to a grey state; in fact it makes them all blink.
My problem is that is takes 50% of the CPU when the blink thread is running. As well, they do not all blink at the same time. The thread changes the icon color and calls a repaint. They seem to repaint independently.
What I would like is to collapse the paint calls into one without having to call repaint on the whole JFrame which does solve my problem but it is a hack.
Swing should collapse all the repaints into one call to the parent but I think because of the JScrollPanes it is not. Can anyone shed any light into why it does not paint all in one call instead of 500 repaint calls.
Thanks,
Pat

Well, I'd change the design first, but if you must play around with paint() then you can try using this setIgnoreRepaint(true) in the Component class.
You could do the grouping yourself and then when you really want things repainted, flag all your components again with setIgnoreRepaint(false), and then call revlaidate() to the parent, and it should repaint everything at once. That is what's I'd try, anyway.

I am not familiar with tech speak, so plain english please. Thank you in advance.

Do a backup, preferably 2.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert Yosemite to Mavericks

Slow performance and org.samba.winbindd.plist problem

Hi -
I'm a newbie to the forum -- so please forgive any mis-steps in etiquette.
My machine has been experiencing hanging that gets progressively worse (more frequent, longer hangs) the more I keep working on it. Spinning beach ball, sometimes frozen cursor -- it resolves itself eventually but performance is so bad it is a major impediment. I have run DiskWarrior, repaired permissions over and over -- that seems to help, briefly, but once I do some work in Word and Safari, the problem re-emerges and builds again. During a visit to Genius Bar earlier this week, we wiped the drive, reinstalled OS, and then restored from Time Machine. The issue came back immediately (I should have played around before the restore to confirm that with clean OS install, things worked).   EtreCheck report is below. I know that Symantec/Norton is likely a source of the problem but I have to have that particular anti-virus software on my machine to connect to work server :-(
I am thinking my next step is to uninstall and reinstall Norton AntiVirus -- and only use AntiVirus -- avoiding the other components of Norton Security. But I would love some input on that. And I am also wondering if the problem might not be caused by the following?
Problem System Launch Daemons: ℹ️
[not loaded] org.samba.winbindd.plist
I've searched for information about what to do when that shows up as an issue but didn't find an answer to that issue specifically.
From what I read in my searches, it seems that having only 2 GB of memory is likely also an issue -- but if that's the case, I don't understand why it hasn't been until now?
Thank you in advance for information/assistance!
Monica

I'm replying to myself because I think I found the prime culprit behind my system hanging. Although there are clearly multiple problems in my system, it appears that a somewhat hidden feature of Norton Firewall was pushing it over the edge.
A subsequent rerun of EtreCheck showed this:
Top Processes by CPU: ℹ️
      49% symdeepsight-extractor
      4% WindowServer
      3% WebProcess

Top Processes by Memory: ℹ️

148 MB Safari
86 MB Microsoft Word

I had disabled all of Norton's firewall functions already. But a websearch on symdeepsight-extractor and system problems told me about the following step I hadn't taken. In Norton Firewall, advanced settings, I turned off Norton Deepsight Community Download, and Norton Deepsight Community Submission.
Safari speeded up immediately -- video that wouldn't play earlier played without a hitch -- hanging is (mostly) gone. Hope this info helps someone else even though the subject line is off target!
