FMA Performance Questions

I don't use FileMaker too much anymore, so I'm hoping for some current information/opinions on using it with Lasso.

A client has multiple domains running on the same Lasso-site in Lasso 8.5.6. We know that when one of those domains is running a long query, it can bog down queries in other domains on the same Lasso-site. Will splitting those domains off to separate Lasso-sites prevent the queries from interfering with each other across domains? Or would the Lasso connector to FMA remain a bottleneck?

And more generally, does Lasso9 have FMA specific improvements, with respect to round-trip performance of queries.

Thanks.

Re: FMA Performance Questions

Hi, Doug -

Great to see a pioneer's name on the list....

It was always my sense that the bottleneck in the situation you describe was with Filemaker, and not necessarily the Lasso connector. I forget the correct terminology, but Filemaker was single threaded or couldn't multi-something.

I'm curious if we get insight from someone else.

Hi Doug!

I'm just about to set up a Mac Mini with the latest FMS to connect to Lasso 9...

If there are any specific tests you'd like me to perform to make some comparisons, contact me off list :)

BTW, are you going to FM DevCon next week?

The Web Publishing Engine (WPE) in FMS/A is *always* the bottleneck.

If you have one client who is bogging down the system, you can
either split FMS/A onto its own server (which only slightly
mitigates the problem) or place the problem client on their own
instance of FMS/A (expensive, but usually the only real way to
avoid the bottleneck, short of migrating to any other database).

All the FileMaker connectors, for php, Lasso and the Ruby and python
ones sit on top of the XML web publishing. Reads can be fairly
straightforward but I would HIGHLY recommend making sure that any
relational data is has a logic layer written in Lasso to make sure
that relational data is written to FMP with some integrity. The XML
queries can take any length and there is no guarantee that they are
ever executed atomically.

There are some other connectors that use JDBC but the JDBC queries
never return an ID of the record modified and this is problematic.

Re: FMA Performance Questions

In reply to this post by Douglas Burchard

I have not had the time/opportunity to deploy a production site using Lasso 9 so I can yet speak to the issues there. Performance improvements should show a boost over pervious versions but it's still stuck using FileMaker's lackluster XML API, with no real alternatives. The few tests I've done with L9 and FileMaker show it working as expected with known issues listed here:

http://www.lassosoft.com/Lasso-9-Issues-List/?q=filemaker

Most of the time I find sluggish responses from FileMaker are because I'm accessing non-indexed fields. In FileMaker check that fields access by Lasso are indexed. If the field is an unstored calculation find a way to change it to an indexable field within your solution (auto-enter calculations, script triggers, etc.), or use Lasso to do the calculations with additional Inline statements to access the related fields, and avoid calling FileMaker scrips.

Hope that helps,
Max

All,

Some great responses! I very much appreciate the information from everyone. Thank you.

While I might have seemed gone for several years, I really have been silently monitoring. It's kind of nice to post again.

Once again, thanks.

The 8.5 Language Guide contains a long list of performance tips
for FMSA. The only one missing from the LG is to migrate away
from FMS/A.

Oh, hush, you know it is true. :P

FM's strength is its usability as a desktop application. If you
want a user friendly GUI to a data source for generating custom
layouts, reports, envelopes and address labels, and which just
so happens to allow being served over the web, then FM is a very
practical solution.

Hi All,

Just wanted to make sure this thread included the great work on Lasso 9's ODBC performance with FM - the results came out just after this discussion thread and is based on the testing that Jono was doing.
Using ODBC for accessing FM data was several times faster than either the FM included PHP version, or even Lasso's XML (which still beat the php version)

In case you missed it - here's the link again http://www.lassosoft.com/Accessing-FileMaker-PHP-vs-Lasso-9

Silly question. Has there been any performance testing in 8.x
between the Lasso Connector for ODBC and the Lasso Connector for
FileMaker SA?

Not a silly question at all.
Now that we're back, I can spend the time reconfiguring that server to do exactly that...
