CPU and memory requirements

Analyze the CPU and Memory requirements of other applications running on the same server as Message Manager.

Optimum performance is achieved when the competition for shared resources is minimized. Tuning Message Manager requires knowing how many resources are available to it. The IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender is, in an optimal configuration, a CPU intensive application that can degrade the performance of other applications (for example, databases) on the same server. The performance of the IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender can also be degraded by other applications on that server. For example, antivirus software that checks every file created for viruses will drastically hinder the performance of the IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender, and therefore Trading Manager and any application maps, due to the amount of files, such as work files, logs, and intermediate files, that are created during the normal course of events. Therefore, it is best to limit the number of other applications running on the IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender server.
