[deprecated] QlikView 11 Hardware Benchmarking Package

This package is deprecated and will be no longer maintained.

This download contains a document that outlines all required information on how to access/execute/analyze/submit results for the QlikView Hardware Benchmarking test package. The goal with the QV HW Benchmarking package is to have a unified QlikView specific Hardware test that can be executed for various environments with the aim to establish a matrix for comparisons on how different servers and configurations perform with QlikView. The document contains information on how to download additional files needed and where to upload the results. This package only supports QlikView 11.

 

The QV Hardware benchmarking package consists of two parts, stand-alone QV desktop based and a QlikView Server based Benchmark tests, focusing different areas of hardware performance. QV documents and scripted tests are part of the Benchmarking package.

 

This package can be used for analytics on your own to perform comparisons of performance for different hardware configurations, but more important is that any test results are provided to the Scalability Center, making sure that your results becomes part of the general summary to improve coverage and statistical accuracy of the results.

This package is deprecated and will be no longer maintained.

we spent 4 hours last week and reps from Qlik ended up creating an FTP account for us on Qlik's FTP location in US. They confirmed the issue and the ftp credentials above do not work. They said they put a request for your IT department.

Thin client works but it is terrible slow from US. I was able to dowload files from root folder and it took 5 hours but it was impossible to download 7 Gb qvw file. If you want I can PM your the name of a person from Qlik who helped me with FTP site on Qlik's US location.

Bit late to the party here.... but we are running this as it looks excellent, however I am getting a 'not enough space for object heap' error... do I just literally need a bigger HDD?

Hi, are you running on a 32-bit or 64-bit OS?

On a 32-bit system the maximum heap size is 1280mb this is unfortunatly not enough for the benchmarking package to get reliable results.

If you're running on a 64-bit OS, make sure you are using 64-bit java.

We are allocating 3Gb of heap, so you need enough free RAM for this allocation on the machine.

haha it said KB so I read it as 300GB!

Running win 8x64 and 64gb ram so hopefully OK, I will double check the Java thank you

One final comment... there isn't much explanation about what the Err is?

It just says a growing rate isn't acceptable, but are results like this OK?

Hi,

Seems you're having a configuration issue. You shouldn't have any errors when running the benchmarking package. So this result is not ok.

One way to check your configuration is to use firefox with the ModifyHeaders plugin to connect to the QlikView server under test. This way you can check if a connection can be made succesfully.
