02 Performance test Forms

Starting with release 11.0 Blueriq decided to introduce a forms performance report. Triggered by the new external session storage development this report doesn't serve solely the purpose of offering performance information to clients that use Blueriq forms exclusively (without any additional components like dashboards, process engine etc) but also compares and assesses the response times for the memory and external session implementations.

Because generally forms tend to be lighter on the memory consumption than other components it was decided to simulate a higher user load. This method assures that the differences in response times are clearer and less circumstantial and helps us draw some conclusions on the use limitations in a certain given environment with some certain given settings. In this way we learned for instance that the Runtime is slightly faster with an inmemory session keeping but on the other hand it supports a lower amount of users.

This happens because ... Petru Galanton can you please fill up this phrase?

Returning to the user load it is important to say that the 2 attached reports are depicting a run with 450 threads (for the memory run) and a run with 800 threads respectively (for the redis run). Both runs are holding the load for 1 hour. As for the results themselves they are interpreted in the same study measurement way as the other Blueriq performance tests namely with the help of Apdex. This page will not explore this subject any further as there is already a special section created just for that [Click here to navigate to the Apdex section].
