Performance Problem Roadmap (1)

If Top Time MAIN_MENU stat shows response times reasonable SQL Trace on TOP TIME Transactions ABAP Trace on TOP TIME Transactions
Specific Problem
Inspect overall Workload statistics for problem areas

General Problem
Check if R/3 buffers need adjustments Are DB buffer qualities< 97% Check missing indexes Use individual transaction workload stats, identifying intensive transactions.
Check if objects can be buffered Allocate more data Buffers
If Av DB time > 40% Response Time
Consider tuning DB in order of highest gains: App. SQL Tuning 70% Memory 15% Disk I/O 10% Memory Contention 5% Build new index(s) when necessary Split instance into 2 smaller instances, separating roll mechanisms
Use SQL trace on transaction
If Av Roll > 2x Rated disk access time
Increase in memory roll area
Offload roll file to faster or more dedicated disk
Performance Problem Roadmap (2)

If Av Wait Time > 1% Response Time Problem Occurring Now Use CPU button of Process Monitor Identify long running Jobs Problem occurred in Past Use Top Times/Tcode WL Monitors, Reference problematic transactions Tune long running Jobs Increase number of needed Workprocesses If Semaphore 6 is continually present, investigate resource conflict situation
If Av CPU Time > 40% Response Time
Use ABAP Trace on time consuming transactions Check R/3 buffers and indexes Analyze disk/network thruputs using OS monitor and/or Network Monitor If Page-Outs exist analyze Extended Memory allocations first If the Extended Memory Allocations: CURRENT USE=IN MEMORY
Analyze efficiency of coding logic and reprogram
If Av Load Time > 10% Response Time
If Av Process Time << Av Response Time
Consider buying more memory or reduce allocations on the OS Jump to Extended Memory Solution Roadmap Faster CPU needed or introduce additional R/3 app server
If Load stats > 3 Check for processes using CPU and remove SAP America, Inc. prf3.ppt December, 1996
If load persists tune all CPU intensive R/3 apps

Extended Memory Solution Roadmap

Preliminaries Let W = number of workprocesses X = size of additional available memory Y = min(ztty/roll_area * 10% , X/W)
Jump to Extended Memory Solution Roadmap
No Allocate All available memory X to em/initial_size More than 10% of users use heap memory
Yes Allocate an additional Y MB to ztty/roll_area and the remainder of X-(Y*W) to em/initial_size
Recheck heap statistics and reallocate memory from ztty/roll_area to em/initial_size to conform to the 10% rule if necessary

What is an expensive SELECT Statement?

Long response time Many data blocks are scanned to find the selected records Long DB request time caused by too many buffer gets
Page 14

Application Server A
ABAP/4 Program
SELECT * FROM T001 WHERE ...
R/3 Database Interface records
Table Buffer
DBMS
DBMS Processes
Database Buffer buffer gets
Database
Which consequences has an inefficient SELECT statement?

Database is busy reading many data blocks High CPU load on database server Workprocess is blocked by report
high wait times for other processes
Many blocks are displaced from database buffer

Cache hit rate for other SQL statements suffers
System wide performance can be harmed by expensive statements
Page 15
How to detect an expensive SELECT statement?

Find out
reports/transactions where the database request time is a large fraction of response time SELECT (SQL) statements with a high number of buffer gets
For these SELECT statements find out

the name of the table the where clause The indices that are used
Sometimes you have to look at the coding. In this case you need:
The name of the report or transaction containing the expensive statement

Configuration Strategy
What can be done to save main memory ? decrease size of roll- and paging buffers rdisp/ROLL_SHM smaller up to 0 rdisp/PG_SHM smaller up to 0 store more data in roll area ztta/roll_first bigger up to (ztta/roll_area - 1MB) in extreme main memory shortage, use traditional paging abap/use_paging = 1
Page 29
High performance configuration with big main memory and swap space reduce data in roll area ztta/roll_first smaller up to 1 (1 byte !!) provide more extended memory em/initial_size_MB bigger, about 7MB/user full buffering of roll- and paging file rdisp/ROLL_SHM bigger, about 2MB/user rdisp/PG_SHM bigger, about 1MB/user
What can be done to save swap space ? more efficient use of roll area ztta/roll_first bigger, ztta/roll_area - 100KB return process local space abap/heaplimit smaller, up to 1 MB no buffering of roll- and paging file rdisp/ROLL_SHM 0 rdisp/PG_SHM 0 reduce extended memory em/initial_size_MB smaller, see utilization in ST02 or RZ03
Page 30
What to do with huge data sizes in background jobs ? increase size of process local space abap/heap_area_nondia bigger, up to OS-limitations abap/heap_area_total bigger, enough swap space must available increase size of quota for extended memory ztta/roll_extension bigger There are platform dependent OS limitations on the size of a processes' address space and on the size of the process local data segment. Limitations on process data segment AIX: 256 MB SINIX: 384 MB HP-UX: about 640 MB SUN, NT: nearly 2000MB - (shared + extended) OSF1: > 4000 MB (64 Bit Architecture) In extreme situations, configure a dedicated background server with traditional paging abap/use_paging = 1
