Network Performance via Response Compression, Browser Cache GZip and MAX-AGE

Troubleshooting


Problem

If you are running Maximo 6 or 7 in a low bandwidth and/or high latency network, reduce network bandwidth utilization by enabling the data compression filter & enable a filter to cache the image, CSS, and JavaScript files on the browser.

Symptom

Poor performance over a wide area network link. Note, the recommended round trip latency is 50 ms or better. For general information about performance related tuning see the wiki below.
