Dear Folks,
My Qlikview App is damn slow when it is reloaded in windows 2012. However the same app is 3 times faster when it is reloaded in Windows 2008 R2 OS Machine.
Is there any configuration that I have to do, inorder to improve the performance of the qlikview in Windows 2012 Server OS.
Thanks in advance,
Karthik
Hi Karthik,
No, you shouldn't need to. Make sure you use the same version, and the latest one from QlikView, which is v11.20 SR6. Do you have a different hardware configuration? Same specifications? Same RAM/CPU/Disk/Network? Could be different BIOS settings too.
Regards,
Erik
Dear Erik,
Thanks for the Reply. Both my server infra is different. Attached the System Details.
UAT Server;
DEV Server:
Please advice me on the BIOS Settings.
How many cores is the old CPU ? 6 cores right?
Not sure, but for example you have a higher clock speed on the older one.
What about hyper threading? Was that disabled on previous machine ?
will the Affinity Settings help?
Hi Karthik,
Have a look at this link for the optimal BIOS settings: Quick tips #8 - Server Settings For Best Performance . As said, make sure you are reloading with the same version of QlikView. I am also noticing that the clock speed is lower on the UAT server. Some calculations are single-threaded and thus the number of cores is irrelevant, the calculation will only be done one a single core.
How much in time is the difference? 1 second vs 3 seconds? 1 hour vs 3 hours? Same script?
Regards,
Erik
Hi Karthik,
The affinity settings will only set how many cores you can use, it will not "speed up" calculations, rather slow them down, if calculations can be parallel (split among many CPUs).

Hi Karthik,
Had a similar issue with a new 2012 server.
It was resolved by changing the power settings. They were by default set to 'economy' mode to keep the server power efficient. This was changed to 'High Performance'.
There may be additional power settings in the BIOS.
best regards,
