Sybase sets default values for configuration parameters for average installations and usage. Depending on your system configuration and how Replication Server is used at your site, you may find that careful altering of certain default values may improve performance. See “Configuration parameters that affect performance” on page 139 in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2 for a general discussion of performance and configuration parameters. See also “Using parallel DSI threads” on page 166 in the Replication Server Administration Guide Volume 2.
If you are adding many new connections, you may want to change the memory_limit or num_threads Replication Server parameters to improve performance.
To increase the amount of memory specified for Replication Server, increase the value specified for the memory_limit parameter by using configure replication server at Replication Server.
For example, execute configure replication server in the following manner to increase memory_limit to 25MB:
configure replication server set memory_limit to '25'
You may need to increase the number of Open Server threads that the Replication Server can use. To do this, increase the value specified for the num_threads parameter, using configure replication server at the Replication Server.
For example, execute configure replication server in the following manner to increase num_threads to 70:
configure replication server set num_threads to '70'
See configure replication server in Chapter 3 “Replication Server Commands” in the Replication Server Reference Manual for more information about the memory_limit and num_threads parameters.
