Connection to 蜜豆视频

蜜豆视频 sends in 10 test calls when the performance page is opened. This represents the percentage of those calls to 蜜豆视频 that succeed.

Local network issues or 蜜豆视频 issues will impact this factor.

Check status.adobe.com to verify if there are any known service issues. Then, validate your local network connection.

Internet bandwidth

Available for Google Chrome only. Your browser鈥檚 estimate of the bandwidth at your location. The guideline is 2.0MB/s.

Your local network connection will impact this factor.

Validate your local network connection.

Internet latency

蜜豆视频 sends in 10 test calls when the performance page is opened. This represents the amount of time it takes on average for each request to go to 蜜豆视频 and be returned. Put more simply, it is a measure of how fast the internet is between your location and 蜜豆视频. The guideline is < 1 second.

Local network issues, many open browser tabs, or 蜜豆视频 issues will impact this factor.

Computation speed

How fast your computer performs a processing test. The guideline is < 750ms.

Your hardware as well as concurrent programs will impact this factor.

Open your computer鈥檚 Task Manager (PC) or Activity Monitor (Mac) to determine if any programs can be closed. Then, close unused browser tabs or other programs.

If those actions do not help, discuss hardware details with your IT team.

Memory used

Available for Google Chrome only. Every Workspace tab in a Google Chrome browser shares 4GB of memory in total. This represents the percent of that memory allowance that is being consumed by the current project. The guideline is 3500 MB, which is the point at which Workspace will begin surfacing memory errors.

Working in multiple tabs or downloading 50000 rows of data will contribute to increased memory usage.

If you receive a memory error, close other Workspace tabs and/or run 50000 row downloads one-at-a-time.

Local storage used

Data stored locally to your computer for use in the browser. Each origin (e.g. experience.adobe.com) has an allowance of 10MB.

Analysis Workspace uses local storage for several functions, including to store auto-saved (existing) projects, user settings, and feature flags.

To ensure Analysis Workspace functions do not become disrupted, clear local storage for the experience.adobe.com domain.

Rendering speed

FPS stands for Frames per second, which is how many times per second the browser draws the page on your screen. 24 FPS is commonly what the human eye can observe; if FPS is lower than that, you will observe rendering issues in Workspace.

FPS is impacted by multitasking across many Workspace projects at once and size of the project being viewed. Other programs running on your computer may have an impact, such as streaming, background scanners, etc. Additionally, your hardware will impact this factor.

Number of requests

The total number of requests made to 蜜豆视频 to retrieve data that is displayed in the project. Queries include ranked requests for tables, anomaly detection, sparklines, components shown in the left rail, and more. Excludes collapsed panels and visualizations. The guideline is 100.

Simplify your project where possible by splitting out data into several projects that serve a specific purpose or group of stakeholders. Use tags to organize projects into themes, and use direct linking to create an internal table of contents so that stakeholders can more easily find what they need.

Expanded panels (out of total panels)

The number of expanded panels out of the total number of panels in the project. The guideline is 5.

After taking steps to simplify your project, collapse panels in your project that do not need to viewed on load. When the project is opened, only expanded panels will be processed. Collapsed panels will not be processed until the user expands them.

Expanded visualizations (out of total visualizations)

The number of expanded tables and visualizations out of the total in the project, including hidden data sources. The guideline is 15.

After taking steps to simplify your project, collapse visualizations in your project that do not need to be viewed on load. Prioritize the visuals that are most important to the consumer of the report and break out supporting visuals into a separate, more detailed panel or project if needed.

Number of Freeform cells

The total number of Freeform table cells in the project, calculated by rows * columns across all tables. Excludes hidden data sources. The guideline is 4000.

Reduce the number of columns in your table to only the most relevant data points. Reduce the number of rows in your table by adjusting the number of rows shown, applying a table filter, or applying a segment.

Available components

The total number of components retrieved in the left rail of the project, across all report suites in the project. This will impact the speed in which the left rail loads and how fast search results are returned within it. The guideline is 2000.

Talk to your product admin about creating a curated virtual report suite that has a more tailored set of components.

Used components

The total number of components used in the project. The guideline is 100.

The number of used components is not a direct influencer of performance. However, the complexity of those components will contribute to performance of the project. See optimizations in the 鈥淎dditional factors鈥� section below.

Longest date range

This factor displays the longest date range used the project. The guideline is 1 year.

Where possible, don鈥檛 pull in more data than you need. Narrow the panel calendar to the relevant dates for your analysis or use date range components (purple components) in your freeform tables. Date ranges used in a table override the panel date range. For example, you can add last month, last week and yesterday to the table columns to request those specific ranges of data. For more information on working with date ranges in Analysis Workspace, watch this video.

Additionally, minimize the number of year-over-year comparisons used in the project. When a year-over-year comparison is calculated, it looks across the full 13 months of data between the months of interest. This has the same impact as changing the panel date range to last 13 months.

The time required from when the request is initiated to when it is complete. The guideline is 15 seconds.

In the Request processing diagram above, the request time represents the full process, from Analysis Workspace request initiated to Analysis Workspace request complete.

In the Request processing diagram above, the request time represents the full process, from Analysis Workspace request initiated to Analysis Workspace request complete.

Because Analysis Workspace stores only the hash for any strings that are used in any segments, each time you process a project, Lookups are performed to match the hashes with the appropriate values. The guideline is under 2 seconds.

This can be a resource-intensive process, depending on the number of values that could potentially match the hash.

In the Request processing diagram above, the lookup time is represented in the Lookups phase (at the time of Request Engine processing phase).

If requests are slowing down here, it is probably due to having too many string segments in you project, or having strings with overly generic values that have too many potential matches.

The total time waiting in queue before requests are processed. The guideline is 5 seconds.

In the Request processing diagram above, the queue time is represented in the Request Engine queue phase and Server queue phase.

If requests are slowing down here, it may be due to too many requests running simultaneously in your organization. Try running the request at an off-peak time.

The average amount of time it takes to process the request.

In the Request processing diagram above, the average server processing time is represented in the Server queue phase and Server processing phase. The guideline is 10 seconds

If requests are slowing down here, it is likely that the project has overly long date ranges or complex visualizations. Try shortening your project date range in order to decrease processing times.

Not all requests require the same amount of time to process. Request complexity can help provide a general idea about the time required to process the request. The guideline is Medium or lower.

Possible values include:

• Low
• Medium
• High

This value is influenced by the values in the following columns:

• Month boundaries
• Columns
• Segments

The number of months that are included in a request. More month boundaries adds to the complexity of the request. The guideline is 6 or fewer.

If requests are slowing down here, it may be because the month boundaries in your project are too large. Try reducing the number of months.

The number of metrics and breakdowns in the request. More columns adds to the complexity of the request. The guideline is 10 or fewer.

If requests are slowing down here, it may be because there are too many columns in your project. Try reducing the number of columns.

The number of segments applied to the request. More segments adds to the complexity of the request. The guideline is 5 or fewer.

If requests are slowing down here, it may be because there are too many segments in your project. Try reducing the number of segments.

Segment complexity

Intricate segments can have a significant impact on project performance.

Factors that add complexity to a segment (in descending order of impact) include:

• Operators of 鈥渃ontains,鈥�, 鈥渃ontains any of鈥�, 鈥渕atches,鈥� 鈥渟tarts with,鈥� or 鈥渆nds with鈥�
• Sequential segmentation, especially when dimension restrictions (Within/After) are used
• Number of unique dimension items within dimensions used in the segment (e.g., Page = 鈥楢鈥� when Page has 10 unique items will be faster than Page = 鈥楢鈥� when Page has 100000 unique items)
• Number of different dimensions used (e.g., Page = 鈥楬ome鈥� and Page = 鈥楽earch results鈥� will be faster than eVar 1 = 鈥榬ed鈥� and eVar 2 = 鈥榖lue鈥�)
• Many OR operators (instead of AND)
• Nested containers that vary in scope (e.g., 鈥淗it鈥� inside of 鈥淰isit鈥� inside of 鈥淰isitor鈥�)

While some of the complexity factors cannot be prevented, look for opportunities to reduce the complexity of your segments. In general, the more specific you can be with your segment criteria, the better. For example:

• With containers, using a single container at the top of the segment will be faster than a series of nested containers.
• With operators, 鈥渆quals鈥� will be faster than 鈥渃ontains鈥�, and 鈥渆quals any of鈥� will be faster than 鈥渃ontains any of鈥�.
• With many criteria, AND operators will be faster than a series of OR operators.

Look for opportunities to reduce many OR statements into a single 鈥渆quals any of鈥� statement.

Classifications can also help to consolidate many values into concise groups from which you can then create segments. Segmentation on classification groups provides performance benefits over segments that contain many OR statements or 鈥渃ontains鈥� criteria.

Visualization complexity (segments, metrics, filters)

The type of visualization (e.g. fallout vs a freeform table) added to a project by itself doesn鈥檛 influence project performance very much. It is the complexity of the visualization that will add to processing time.

Factors that add complexity to a visualization include:

• Range of data requested
• Number of segments applied; for instance, segments used as rows of a freeform table
• Use of complex segments
• Static item rows or columns in freeform tables
• Filters applied to rows in freeform tables
• Number of metrics included, especially calculated metrics that use segments

If you notice that your projects aren鈥檛 loading as quickly as you鈥檇 like, try replacing some segments with eVars and filters, where possible.

If you find yourself continually using segments and calculated metrics for data points that are important to your business, consider improving your implementation to capture these data points more directly. The use of a tags in 蜜豆视频 Experience Platform and 蜜豆视频鈥檚 processing rules can make implementation changes quick and easy to implement.

Report suite size

The amount of data collected into your report suite.

-

Consult with your implementation team or an 蜜豆视频 expert to determine if there are implementation improvements that can be made to improve overall experience in 蜜豆视频 Analytics.

Concurrent queries

The number of queries that are being requested by your organization to 蜜豆视频 at the same time. Each organization is entitled to a minimum of 5 concurrent queries.

If a report is taking a long time, typically it is due to the fact that it is in a queue with other reports. This means your organization is trying to run many concurrent requests against a specific report suite. Queries can come from API requests, reporting UIs (Analysis Workspace, Report Builder, etc), scheduled projects, scheduled reports, scheduled alerts, and concurrent users making reporting requests.

Spread your requests and schedules for the report suite more evenly throughout the day. Also, shift your requests to off-peak times when possible. Monday mornings, Tuesday mornings, and the first of each month are peak reporting times.
