HCL Notes/Domino 8.5 Forum (includes Notes Traveler)

Subject:

- I use the Eclipse LS editor on Agents that use 40-odd classes in Script Libraries and have no real issues, other than the fact the build system is generally wonky. It's fast while it's being wonky, though, and generally a "peformance" issue relates to speed.

- What LS editor are you using, "classic" or Eclipse?

- What OS are you using and how many bits is it? From what I've read here DDE doesn't like 64-bit.

- Are you using a virtual machine?

- How much RAM do you have in your operating environment (host or VM)? If it's over 2G this is likely a non-issue.

- What DDE version are you using?

- Are you doing local development or hitting a remote server? By remote I don't mean on the same LAN segment on the next desk, or in the next office. I mean something out in the cloud. This is mind numbingly slow in R8.5.x compared to R<=7. I mean mind numbingly slow. It's insane. But that slowness is not just LotusScript, it's every single thing relating to DDE across the board, so if all you see if LS being slow this is not likely the issue.

- Something to try, regardless of the above, is to bump the JVM memory for DDE. Search this Forum and you'll find it, because I did the same yesterday. DDE is orders of magnitude more responsive with a base of 256Bytes than the stunningly minuscule amount has by default. This even applies to the mind numbingly slow remote server access. Ah. Here it is:

IFF you are using R8.5.1+

Edit <notes dir>/framework/rcp/deploy/jvm.properties.
Change the following two lines:

vmarg.Xmx=-Xmx768m <- Max that DDE can use
vmarg.Xms=-Xms256m <- Base that DDE starts with

Hope this helps...
