Generating reports is slow and causes timeouts

You might encounter slow performance or transaction time-outs during report generation for certain reports against large data sets.

To improve performance and reduce time-outs, follow these best practices:

When you run the large reports in PDF output format, specify the appropriate filters or parameters and avoid the usage of the default filter 'Any' that fetches all the records.
In a large data deployment, specify the HTML output format. HTML format supports the pagination, which renders one page at a time and provides the options to move to the next pages.
Tune the database. See the IBM Verify Identity Governance Performance Tuning Guide at http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27036205 for suggested indexes to set on columns in Report DB tables.
