CONNX has been developed with performance in mind and strives to maintain the highest level performance in the marketplace.

Getting the highest performance is most important in applications that require fast user response. For any application that relies on multiple machines or resources, system performance is only as good as the slowest component.

Because operating system and networking environments vary, we are unable to provide a performance calculator or hard statistics that would work for all our customers. Developing and monitoring performance for a particular installation is best performed on-site in your specific environment. Customers can modify their current environment so that CONNX can achieve peak performance.

This chapter gives general performance improvement guidelines. Use the remaining sections for high level planning. We will detail some specific concepts and methods that can be employed to increase or maintain CONNX performance.
