Open/Search times in NX from TcUA not linear across assembly size

Open/Search times in NX from TcUA not linear across assembly size Problem Description:

TcUA 8.3.3.1

NX 8.0.1.5

Win2008 R2 Server for business logic (pool server)

WinXP 64bit for 4 tier client

CMM 8.0.1.203

Open/Search times in NX from TcUA not linear across assembly size

Added the following debug variables:

Set "Generate Support Logs for IR/PR"

Tab for Teamcenter Integration for NX - LOAD and PERFORMANCE

Steps to reproduce:

Note that although we are performing this on 2 assemblies - the small assembly is a sub-assembly of the large, and

the part we search is the same for both cases, and the number of occurences returned in each case is the same.

  1. Login to TcUA

  2. Launch NX

  3. Open assembly (small first, then large)

    3a. Structure only

    3b. Revision Rule 2

    3c. Use Partial Loading

    3d. Use Lightweight Representations

  4. From the tree - search part 123X

  5. Select (Open) part and perform "Open by Proximity" - 10"

  6. Log all times

details of question / issue.

The small assembly is approximately 5 times smaller than the large

small = 17460 occurences

large = 103938 occurences

The times to perform the tasks above are not even close to being 5X slower:

Search structure for part: Small: 10 seconds, Large: 160 seconds

Open by Proximity: Small: 1 min large: up to 12 min

We would expect a little longer times for performing some of these tasks - but since we are querying the same part,

assemblies, proximety and receiving the same results they should not be 12-16X longer.

Reference questions that may be necessary:

Is the problem part/assembly specific? YES

Does this behavior occur on all clients? YES

Does this behavior occur for all users? YES

How long has this been occurring? Since migration

Were there any administrative changes/software updates before the issues started occurring? NO Siemens PLM believes that the problem you reported where Open/Search times in NX from Teamcenter are not linear across assembly size will be resolved by code changes made to the upcoming release of our software NX 8.5.2.
