Hello,
One of the projects (Using Citect Studio 2018 R2) I am working on uses a very universal supergenie, where all configuration is done through Equipment Parameters. This makes things streamlined, and easy to automate, but we've found that there are serious performance issues.
I have attempted to raise my concerns at the size of the page dynamic objects dbf, however other members of the team who have been testing these pages are adamant that there is a distinct and significant drop in performance when there are around 1000 or more Equipment Parameters active amongst all pages / popups.
My current best guess is that it is hitting a limit in a buffer somewhere, and has to create an additional buffer / disk request that doubles the delay in response.
I have attempted to search for any knowledge on limits on Equipment Parameters, or Associations, but have not had any luck.
Besides reviewing our philosophy and redesigning these popups (something others are reluctant to do considering our time constraints), is there anything we can do
Something going on in the background? Anything we can change in the ini file to make this work better for us?
Anyone seen this behaviour before?
Hoping to get this sorted soon,
Brandon Yeats
