1657.0. "appl performance in client/server" by SUBWAY::GTRUTT () Thu Nov 02 1989 11:49

    I'm using DECwrite in client/server mode. The DECwrite client is
    running on a VAXserver 3400. The DECwrite server is running on a VS2000.
    
    First method:
    
    Set host to VAXserver, set display,  and mc decwrite.
    	Performance is great!
    
    Second method:
    
    Log into VAXserver. Set display, and run detached decwrite.
    	Performance - there is none, it works but is soooooooooooooooo slow.
    
    Everything is done from the same acct.
    
    QUESTION:
    	Why is performance so much better with set host?

It depends how you're doing the RUN/DETACH and how your PQL parameters are set,
I think.

If you run the detached process like this:

$ run/detach/process="Levy_Notes"/authorize -
	/input=Levy_Notes.com/output=nl:/error=nl: -
	 sys$system:loginout.exe

Where Levy_Notes.com looks like: 

$ set display/create/node=mumble
$ NOTES/DECWINDOWS
$ set display/noperm
$ exit

You will be using your own UAF authorized limits.  If you don't do the 
/AUTHORIZE, you'll take whatever the system uses for PQL_mumble defaults (which
may be too low for good performance).

Does this help?  Make sense?
