When using NI ELVISmx Instrument Launcher it takes too long to open myDAQ

myDAQ hardware when connected USB is successfully installed on all 15 computers in a classroom environment and seen in Device Manager. When the application 'NI ELVISmx for myDAQ' is opened, the Instrument Launcher displays successfully on the desktop. The problem is however, when one of the buttons are selected ie: DMM or SCOPE, it takes 2 to 3 minutes to open (it is a white blank until it appears), or it will eventually say 'not responding' or it opens immediately with 'Launcher has stopped working'. This occurs on all the computers in the classroom.

Hello meoow2u,
Has the performance of the other software on these machines been affected since ELVISmx was installed, or is the Instrument Launcher the only program exhibiting this behavior?

Business Rules Project Takes Too Long to Open

Does anyone know why it takes too long (~3-5 minutes) to open/edit a security project definded for assigning business rules to planning application forms? We are using Hyperion v11.1.1.3.0. Essbase is on Windows server, Shared Services on Solaris 10 Unix. Even before we migrated Essbase to Windows to gain better performance running calcs, opening projects using EAS has always been very slow to open. Please advice if there is a way to improve performance on this.

Why does it take too long to open attachments from email account?

It takes forever to download attachments from my email account. I have tried to do the following tasks explained on the vista forum :http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/6b046ae9-1434-4423-9303-400ff6fe686b1033.mspx#ESD but none of the possible fixes work.
After clicking open on the pop up box asking whether i want to open or save the attachement It takes too long to download it. The transfer window stays open showing that it is ready to download but stays at that bhox window. I press cancel and try to open again, if lucky it opens that file, otherwise it takes forever forceing me to cancel. The files very small files most of the time, usually between 50kb so should take seconds.
I have even tried to save the files but again same process. The transfer box stays open but does not download.
Any one any ideas.
Thanx in advance.

Hello
It is not easy to say what happen exactly but it must be something with email account provider and their page. For me this case is not some typical Vista problem but you can try to find solution on Microsoft Vista IT Pro forum.
By the way: do you have alternative mail address by some other provider? Is there the same situation?

Takes too long to open a database

Dear experts,
we are trying to load a lot of data into BDB JE 4.1.10, and at the moment total size of all log files is about 306Gb (~ 55mln records with keys length 15-20 bytes and values 10-30KB), total number of files is 1570.
Usage pattern: big batch updates once a week, all other time read-only with random reads.
So far the experience of using BDB JE is very good, but one annoying thing is that it takes ~ 30 min to open the database (new Environment(...) takes only 10 seconds, but dbEnv.openDatabase(...) is very slow). It is slow even after a clean shutdown, and even when there were previously no updates at all. Looking at the iostat, the application is very busy with reading from disk.
Is there a way to speed opening the database up? Or may be it is a reasonable time for such a big database?
Settings:
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.LOG_FILE_MAX, "" + (200 * MB));
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.LOG_FILE_CACHE_SIZE, "500");
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.LOG_WRITE_QUEUE_SIZE, "" + (24 * MB));
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.LOG_BUFFER_SIZE, "" + (8 * MB));
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.CHECKPOINTER_BYTES_INTERVAL, "" + (100 * MB));
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.CLEANER_MIN_AGE, "10");
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.CLEANER_MAX_BATCH_FILES, "10");
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.CLEANER_READ_SIZE, "" + (4 * MB));
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.CLEANER_LOOK_AHEAD_CACHE_SIZE, "" + (2 * MB));
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.LOG_FAULT_READ_SIZE, "" + (24 * KB));

envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.EVICTOR_LRU_ONLY, "false");
envConfig.setConfigParam(EnvironmentConfig.EVICTOR_NODES_PER_SCAN, "200");
System: SUSE with 32Gb onboard and 2CPUs with 4 cores each, RAID0 on 4 disks 7200rpm. BDB JE has 75% for cache from 10GB available for the application.
Thanks in advance!

Hi ambber,
Thanks for your suggestion. A counter that must be updated atomically and logged periodically by JE would be accurate, but would add the same sort of complexity to JE that you mention was added to your application. More importantly, it would only address one type of aggregate "count" that an application may be interested in. Other applications, for example, need to find the number of records in a key range, where the range end points are not predetermined.
Another possibility is for JE to provide a very rough estimate of the record count, based on the depth of the Btree and the number of internal nodes below the root level of the tree. For example, if the tree is 5 levels deep, the tree has N nodes under the root level, 128 is the maximum size of each node, and nodes are on average 75% full, then the total number of records is very roughly:
N * ((128 * 0.75) ^^ 4)The advantage of this approach is that it requires no additional data to be logged, does not reduce concurrency, and a similar approach can be applied to a key range as well the entire database.
Because it would be a very rough estimate, it would mainly be useful for determining optimal query strategies.
How are you using the record count?
Just a thought.

Aperture 2 - Launch/Quit takes too long

Hi there,
Need help! I just installed the Aperture 2.1.3 in my new Mac Pro. I have all my pictures in a Drobo 4T connected through my network using DroboShare (ethernet). The reason I bought Aperture is because I can have my library in an external drive (centralized) and because of the organizing options. I have setup Aperture to use pictures library location in Drobo.
*My problem:*
*1) Why every time a Launch/Quit Aperture it takes more than 20min?*
*2) Why all pictures are pixelated? Even though they are all in high resolution. (Taken with Nikon D60)*
Note: Under my old PC I could handle it under the same circumstances but with Picassa. I don't want to come back...
Thanks in advance and hope to find a solution

You can't have the library on the network drive, it's going to be VERY slow. You should have the library on a locally attached drive (preferably internal) and use referenced masters if you want to go that route.
Loading the library over a NAS is too slow for practical use. Especially DroboShare, which is very slow for a NAS device. Locally attached drive is at least 10x faster.

IPhoto takes too long to open and close

I just updated to iPhoto 5.0.4 from 4.0.3 (using an iLife 05 disk) on my iBook G4 (specs below). I have about 10,000 photos in my library. It took 5 or more hours (I finally had to go to bed!) to update all my photos when the program first opened. This newer version opens, closes, and hides slower than the older version, up to 4 minutes sometimes. Also when open, it slows down other processes on the computer quite a bit. But so far, the processes I've tried to do within iPhoto have worked nicely, including rotating, editing, e-mailing, slideshow.
I have already deleted the .plist file, repaired permissions, and rebuilt the library (successfully) with iPhoto Library Manager, and of course restarted the computer several times. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to how to keep this program from clogging up my computer and running more quickly? If the only suggestion is to try reinstalling iPhoto 5, would it have to update all my photos again and would the reinstalled program look at my iPhoto library or the rebuilt library?
I have 4.7 GB of hard disk space left of a 60GB hard drive (which is really only 55GB). iPhoto seems to be automatically looking at the rebuilt library now. I guess Library Manager made it that way?? So another question is can I just drag my original iPhoto library from my "Pictures" folder to the trash? This would free up about 15GB.

Thanks so much, TD, for your quick reply. I have about 25 albums. Would you consider that "a lot"? Don't know if they are "smart" though. I just created each album and drug the appropriate photos from my library over to the folder icon of each one. I don't think that involves any of that "smart" stuff, does it?
What do you mean by "if you have all your Rolls open"? How do I "open" rolls or "close" them? I always leave the little triangle next to the "Library" in the left column closed. In that column, listed under the Library are the last roll, last 12 months roll, etc. then all my albums.
I will trash my original library and hopefully that will help some.

OPM process execution process parameters takes too long time to complete

PROCESS_PARAMETERS are inserted every 15 min. using gme_api_pub packages. some times it takes too long time to complete the batch ,ie completion of request. it takes about 5-6 hrs long time ,in other time s it takes only 15-20 mins.This happens at regular interval...if anybody can guide me I will be thankful to him/her..
thanks in advance.
regds,

Generally the slowest part of the process is in the extraction itself...
Check in your source system and see how long the processes are taking, if there are delays, locks or dumps in the database... If your source is R/3 or ECC transactions like SM37, SM21, ST22 can help monitor this activity...
Consider running less processes in parallel if you have too many and see some delays in jobs... Also indexing some of the tables in the source system to expedite the extraction, make sure there are no heavy processes or interfaces running in the source system at the same time you're trying to load... Check with your Basis guys for activity peaks and plan accordingly...
In BW also check in your SM21 for database errors or delays...
Just some ideas...

NI elvismx instrument launcher stopped working

why does evlis stop working when i start it up? it is not the hardware it is the software that stops working. that is the only error message i get, and then it just shuts down... help me please

Hello sheeze,
Could you please go into more detail about the error you are seeing? It would really help to know:
1) Does this only happen when you first start Elvismx Instrument Launcher?
2) Has the program ever worked in the past?
3) Are there any error messages or codes when the program stops?
4) Is there an option to report the problem to Microsoft/National Instruments?
5) What version of Elvismx are you using?
6) What operating system do you have on the computer (including 32- or 64-bit)?
Thank you,

Since installing LTR 5.4, which I've now upgraded to 5.6, I've encountered repeated slowness and malfunctions in operations, especially when using the Compare View function and the Tab key to open and close the right and left side panels. Such problems never arose during two years of using LTR-4 and nothing else has changed on my computer. I have a pretty simple system with only a few plug-ins, which are usually not in operation. I have 12GB of RAM in my Windows 7 PC. I could illustrate these problems with screen shots if you would tell me how to submit screen shots. Otherwise I will try to describe the problems in words.
The problem is clearly cumulative, growing worse as usage time passes. Compare View feature gradually slows down and eventually seems to choke as my work session proceeds. If I Exit LTR and re-enter and start all over, things will work normally for maybe 30 minutes, but then the Compare View feature begins to become very slow to respond. In a recent example with my screen full of thumbnails in Library mode I highlighted two images to compare. LTR started to open the Compare View screen by first having the top row of thumbnails disappear to be replaced by the "SELECT" and "CANDIDATE" words in their spaces (but no images), but Compare View never succeeded in gaining control of the screen. After some seconds the top row of thumbnails reasserted its position and the Compare View windows disappeared. But LTR kept trying to bring them back. Again the top row of thumbnails would go away, Select and candidate would reappear, try again, and give up. This went on for at least 2-3 minutes before I tried to choose File and Exit, but even that did not initially want to respond. It doesn't like to accept other commands when it's trying to open Compare View. Finally it allowed me to exit.
To experiment I created a new catalog of 1100 images. After 30-40 minutes, the Compare View function began to operate very slowly. With left and right side panels visible and two thumbnails highlighted, hitting Compare View can take half a minute before the two mid-size images open in their respective SELECT and CANDIDATE windows. When the side panels are open and two images are in the Select/Candidate spaces, hitting the Tab button to close the side panels produces a very delayed response--25-30 seconds to close them, a few more seconds to enlarge the two images to full size. To reverse the process (i.e., to recall the two side panels), hitting Tab would make the two sides of the screen go black for up to a minute, with no words visible. Eventually the info fields in the panels would open up.
I also created a new user account and imported a folder of 160 images. After half an hour Compare View began mis-placing data. (I have a screen shot to show this.) CANDIDATE appears on the left side of SELECT, whereas it should be on the right. The accompanying camera exposure data appears almost entirely to the left of the mid-screen dividing line. Although the Candidate and Select headings were transposed, the image exposure data was not, but the data for the image on the right was almost entirely to the left of the line dividing the screen in two.
Gurus in The Lightroom Forum have examined Task Manager data showing Processes running and Performance indicators and they see nothing wrong. I could also send screen shots of this data.
At this point, the only way I can process my images is to work 30-40 minutes and then shut down everything, exit, and re-start LTR. This is not normal. I hope you can find the cause, and then the solution. If you would like to see my screen shots, tell me how to submit them.

Takes too long to hibernate when I close the lid - Also random device noise when it boots up

Hello guys.
Ever since i've wiped the machine, i've been having these two problems. When I close the lid, it used to go to sleep straight away, but now I can see the sleep light (and the power button) flash and flash, then it goes to sleep.
When waking up it goes through the lenovo startup screen and resuming windows, then it asks for a password, before I used to open the lid and it would ask me for the password straight away. I know it was going to sleep because I could hear the beep straight away when I closed and opened it, but now it just takes too long.
Also, everytime I boot up into windows or resume into windows from a sleep state, I can hear the device noise, like something is being plugged in/out. But there is nothing being plugged in or out at the time. I can't get to device manager quick enough to see what it is that is causing it.
But all drivers seem okay.
Thanks in advance.
Sam.
EDIT: Also noticed, when the lid is closed, randomly the laptop turns off (hear the beep) an then turns back off again.
Weird.

where are my TV series which I purchase on Apple TV stored? Why do they take so long to open when we want to watch them?

That would be due to your network.
Some common things to check
Current connection, use speedtest.net
Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of your network, it will help see if there's interference.
On Apple TV go to settings - general - network. Make sure DNS is set to automatic.
