COO Service performance with user objects and app.telemetry

Last update: 4 August 2017

Summary

In environments with a high number of user objects (or a high number of deactivated users) Fabasoft app.telemetry could cause short but recurring COO-Service thread load. To keep the list of users up-to-date the refresh is recurring and takes a few seconds to load all user objects.

Solution

Reduce the refresh interval of your app.telemetry installation by editing the infra.xml of Fabasoft app.telemetry:

Locate the infra.xml file on the Fabasoft app.telemetry server (see below)
Make a backup of your infra.xml (for example by copying it to infra.xml.backup)
Add the following line at line 3 of your infra.xml

The parameter "filterrefreshtimeout" defines the refresh interval. (the value is in seconds; 86400 sec = 1 day)
Default Value (without the explained line): 3600 seconds (1 hour)

Example snippet of infra.xml

This is an example of the first lines of a customized infra.xml
