Hi.

Not sure if this is related, but I would start by checking if it's related to accessibility settings. If disabled, in PB 2022 R3 there is a change that may affect your application performance. Take a look at Accessibility improvements - - What's New (appeon.com).

Basically in PB 2022 R3 you need to move those settings to pb.ini application section:

[Application]
accessibility=0

Andreas.

did you try setting antivirus exclusions on the directory where the exe is? 

Hi Eduardo,

Can you elaborate on how you compiled it? using ORCA or PBAutoBuild?

I suggest you submit a bug in the support system.

Hi Eduardo,

what you could do:

• Sometimes Process Monitor (https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/sysinternals/downloads/procmon) helps to find out if application is looking for files in different folders what may be slow.
• Use PowerBuilders tracing capabilities (https://docs.appeon.com/pb2022r3/pbug/ch07s02s02.html) to find out what part of you code is slow. You may also compare this with different PB versions to find out what Appeon have improve.

Hi, Eduardo - 

What I'm going to suggest may or may not be feasible for your situation, but I will throw it out there for you to consider...

I think it would be useful to have some baseline data that contains some finer granularity that simply the overall completion time. Can you add timing/recording functionality to this process that collects data at several key and/or critical points? I would then compile/run with the Build 1892 runtime environment to collect this baseline dataset and verify that the overall completion time is similar to that observed before (roughly 18 minutes, I believe).

Once that data is collected, compile/run with the Build 3356 runtime environment and compare the datasets.

If you see, say, one part of the overall process that is performing abysmally but you still cannot determine possible causes, then perhaps you can include additional, finer data collection points in that portion of the process, then repeat.

This approach is how I would attack this issue if I were in your situation.

The GlobalMemoryStatus or GlobalMemoryStatusEx Windows API functions may be helpful. I can supply you with the PB structure(s) and external function declarations to interface with these API's, if desired.

Best regards, John

Has anyone had this problem with over 100,000 accesses to an Oracle msg file?
