When working with a large number of files, the performance thresholds can be changed to help minimize the performance impact on users.
Use the Administration utility to specify notification preferences when processing a large number of files.
- Select Tools
Administration. - In the Administration dialog box, select the Advanced Settings tab.
- In the Performance Thresholds section, click Settings. The Performance Thresholds dialog is displayed.
- In the General File Processing section, specify the number of files that can be included when performing a general task before the system warns the user that server performance may be impacted. The threshold can range from 1,000 to 10,000. The default setting is 5,000.
- Specify the number of files that can be included when performing a general task before the system produces an error and prevents the user from proceeding. The threshold can range from 1,000 to 10,000 but must be greater than the value specified as a warning threshold.
- In the Performance Thresholds section, specify the number of files that can be included when synchronizing the workspace before warning the user that server performance may be impacted. The threshold can range from 1,000 to 10,000 files. The default is 3,000.
Note: In a connected workgroup environment, the performance threshold is applied to all workgroups and all sites.
Tip: Setting a smaller performance threshold increases server performance.
