Techniques for improving four-tier performance

It can be useful to configure the Teamcenter four-tier architecture for optimum performance. The default settings for application servers are rarely appropriate for production scalability or good transactional performance. Techniques for improving four-tier performance include: Disable the display of the checked-out symbol that displays to the right of each Teamcenter object. It is a quick indicator of whether the object is checked out. When an object is checked out, another user has exclusive access to it, preventing you from making changes to the object until it is checked in. Set the TC_show_checkedout_icon preference to True to display the symbol and enhance usability or to False to hide the symbol and improve rich client startup performance. Determine whether your virus scanner monitors all HTTP communications from the host. Because Teamcenter four-tier clients (such as the rich client, and NX) use HTTP to communicate with the web tier, such scanning negatively impacts performance. Deactivate this functionality, or configure your virus scanner to ignore communications from the web tier. Size the server pool appropriately. The pool-specific parameters are set in the serverPooldatabase-name.properties file in the TC_ROOT\pool_manager\confs\configuration-name\ directory.
