Performance issue with 9.2.920 on EAP files
« on: November 18, 2011, 07:47:15 pm »
Following on from: Performance issue with 9.1.910 on SQL Server, I've done some longitudinal testing on some Diagram processing we do (automatically locating the neighbours of an element within the model and drawing the "neighborhood" diagram).

Indications are that build 920 is approximately twice as slow as build 909. :'(

On 1098 arbitrarily selected diagrams (of various types of elements with varying content - a total of 12422 vertices) we get the following figures for one specific machine (Core I5 - 32 bit - XP SP) - average times are in seconds:
Build 909:
(Elapsed: 00:39:58.2346512)    (Average/diagram: 2.184185)    (Average/vertex: 0.1930635)
Build 920:
(Elapsed: 01:10:10.6330761)    (Average/diagram: 3.834821)    (Average/vertex: 0.3389658)

NOTE: the test specifically made NO changes to the diagrams - in other words, the diagrams were setup and then reprocessed as though there had been changes within the model and the diagrams needed to be updated.  However there were actually no changes and so no diagrams were actually changed.  This provides a reproducible test.

I'll try and post the equivalent test for my home machine later tonight.

Can anybody run some similar tests to check my findings?

Haven't got the numbers for my home machine yet - due to technical difficulties.  However I have some numbers for a similar Core I3 machine - however this time with an SSD.
I also implemented some caching of information.  However the comparison test is still like-with-like.  The only change is the version of IE running.

Build 909:
(Elapsed: 00:27:58.9736295)    (Average/diagram: 1.52912)    (Average/vertex: 0.1351613)
Build 920:
(Elapsed: 00:56:20.8689873)    (Average/diagram: 3.079116)    (Average/vertex: 0.2721678)

As you can see the result are consistent with the earlier ones.  I'll try to have the numbers from the home (Core I7) machine tonight.

However, the question is still open:  Is it just us, or are others seeing the same effect?

Results from Core i7

Build 909:
(Elapsed: 00:24:25.2481735)    (Average/diagram: 1.33447)    (Average/vertex: 0.1179559)
Build 920:
(Elapsed: 00:42:33.4436849)    (Average/diagram: 2.325541)    (Average/vertex: 0.2055582)

Again, pretty consistent...

I have similar issue on performance.
I have I7 64bit 4G machine, EAP file is 14M.
It takes 8s or more to open properties dialog.
I checked RAM and not closes to running out.

What version are you on.
Anyway, this looks like a completely different issue altogether.
Have you tried the Project Integrity Check?

If that doesn't help I suggest to ask Sparx support for help.

(My eap files are 550M, so 14M is nothing)
