Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Administration

> ## Performance Notes

> This appendix provides information that can help you to tune your Progress Dynamics applications for optimum performance.

> Although most of the performance improvements implemented in the current release are generally applicable and therefore automatically delivered to an application, there are additional improvements where your application knowledge is required to make the best choice of where to balance trade-offs. These optimizations are therefore optional and enabled through configuration decisions that you make. This appendix describes these configurable optimizations:

> - Configuring server and client startup options

> - Using static-4GL equivalents of dynamic objects

> - Keeping SmartDataObjects alive on the server

> - Progress Dynamics lookup/combo (SmartDataField) cache

> - Dynamic lookup mapped fields

> - Class and entity cache

> - Toolbar Image Optimization Using PicClip Images

> - Caching toolbars and container menus at session startup

> - Thin SmartObject rendering

> - Dynamic TreeView optimizations

> - SmartDataObject data definition and schema location

> - SuperProcedureMode attribute

> - Dynamic call wrapper (dynlaunch.i)

> - Creating customized login windows
