Hi community,
My question is basically because last week (when we have NPrinting and Qlik Sense on the same machine) our report took 10-15 minutes to generate, now with NPrinting on a different machine this report took 35-40 minutes to generate.
So how affect NPrinting performance?
Our 2 virtual machines are similar (32 GB RAM, 8 CPUs, 500HDD disk space)
Another thing: We upgraded our machine from June 2017 to Sept 2017 before separate our enviroment
Thanks!

That is exactly what i would expect.
So all hard work will be always on QlikSense or QlikVIew server side.
This is 100% expected result!!!

Hi,
is your nprinting server machine accessing app via shared network folder or local system copy of your app? just make sure to keep your app in nprinting machine and try to run it. now it read you object faster than n/w app file.
Thanks

Our NPrinting is accesing to a Qlik Sense app via Proxy (see image):
So I put the proxy from my Qlik Sense machine, and our domain admin user to access.
Can I do this local system copy too? Or your solution works with Qlikview only?
Hi Devarasu - he is using QlikSense - so proxy only!!!
The only thing i can think of is your network speed and how those 2 boxes communicate between each other.
As a benchmark map drive between boxes and copy accross few big files, then copy the same files from one to another folder on QS server. Compare results
Network must be extremly slow if it slows down report generation so much.

Thanks Lech,
I'm still looking why my reports are generating slower than before.
Maybe I would post this in another topic, but:
When I'm generating this report, why the cpu usage on Qlik Sense box is ~100% and on NPrinting box is ~15-20%?
This report is an excel with several Pages and filters by user.

Lech, as always thank you for your help, this clarifies many things, now I have more information to talk with the IT team.

Another thing,
Currently our QSense box and NPrinting box have 8 cores. Setting 4 cores on NPrinting box, will this help on the report generation performance?
this is difficult question
i would start with adding cores to qlik sense server, because that is whete the power i lacking. Takimg off 4 cores from Nprinting box will not improve anything-it will just remove a little bit of stress from QlikSense. if these are VM run few test and compare resulta, but i would definitely boost Qlik Sense box
