Hi,

 

I am looking at optimising an application for use over a satellite connection that is expected to have a high amount of lag.

 

I am wondering what options I have to speed up the loading of screens, operation of using pagers and selectors as well as what the 'In RAM' option in a cubes settings does on BOARD web? If anyone has done anything similar, hearing your solutions would be very helpful and interesting.

 

Thanks,

Stephen

    Hi,

     

    Do you deploy Board to end-users with the web-based client or the desktop client?

     

    In any case, the 'In RAM' option won't do anything if your server is setup in Database mode : "In-Memory" as every cube is already in RAM. This option apply for Hybrid mode. And I don't think it will help with high latency issue anyway.

    Hi Stephen Kirk,

     

    We had some success in optimizing load time by using versions of our cubes.

    In some cases you don't need the lowest hierarchy of your entity in specific screens.
