How do I improve search engine performance?

If you find that the search engine performance is not the best, consider the following:

• If you have a small product structure (one thousand or less occurrence threads), you may improve performance by switching to a top-down search.
• The lower the variation in geometry between different revisions of the same item, the better the search engine performs.
• The greater the correlation between the product structure and the geometry breakdown, the better the search engine performs.
• The accuracy of the search depends on the cell size you configure in NX or the voxel size in JT. A small cell or voxel size provides more accurate search results, but smaller cell sizes result in larger JT or TruShape files and longer response times.
• Avoid accumulating a large number of entries in the indexing queue. The faster the updates are processed, the sooner live updates are available.
• During the deployment process, monitor the size of the queue by periodically running the qsearch_process_queue utility with the -list_queue option. If the queue size is increasing steadily, you might have to reconsider your deployment strategy.
