Peculiarities of viewing performance indicators in web client run mode
If you specify to display performance indicators (Tools – Options - check Display performance indicators or use /DisplayPerformance command line option), a button appears in the bottom right corner of the application window that is intended to open the performance indicators window.
Lines in this window may display information about current calls and cumulative calls since the last clear. Appearance of this data and their content (current/cumulative calls, number of calls, call service time, sent/received data volume) are defined in the Performance Indicators Settings dialog box opened using the Settings command of the context menu of the window.
Use the context menu commands to open the Server Calls History window (for current and cumulative calls) containing call details. When data displayed in the performance indicators window is changed, it is highlighted with red color.
You may also use the context menu to customize data display and to clear the history of cumulative calls.
By default the performance indicators window contains two counts: Current and Cumulative.
Current count shows statistics of server calls since a certain point in time: engine start time, or the last user action not followed by any other user action within 0.2 second.
Cumulative – shows statistics of the server calls since the engine start or its last forced reset triggered from the context menu.
Size and position of the performance indicators window are saved between the sessions. Besides, clicking the OK button automatically fits the window size to the current settings, if there is no sufficient screen space. The window size also automatically fits to the default settings when the window is first opened.
Position of the performance indicators window is saved between the sessions.
In web client run mode the process of viewing performance indicators is similar to that for the thin and thick clients but there are some differences. The main differences are as follows:
- Only synchronous calls are taken into account. The calls executed to receive pictures as well as certain calls that load functionality of the web client (scripts) are not taken into account.
- The volume of the transferred data is displayed in characters instead of bytes. Thus, this information can only be used to evaluate and compare data volumes for various calls but cannot be used to compare it with similar statistics obtained in other clients.
