: & 5.6 Resource Usage During Analysis

(êWhenever Compaq Analyze starts, and when you run manual analysis, the program appears to use a lot of system resources and processor cycles. However, Compaq Analyze uses only the capacity that is not being asked for by other programs.

(¢Compaq Analyze always relinquishes processor cycles to other programs whenever they need them. In other words, the program uses whatever resources are available.

(XAt startup Compaq Analyze needs the available capacity for the scavenge process. Depending on the system, and the size and content of the log, the initial startup pass can take many minutes or even hours to complete. After completing the scavenge process, Compaq Analyze drops into idle mode, where resource usage hovers at only a few percent.

(eIf you run Compaq Analyze in manual mode, large amounts of system resources and processor cycles might also get used. As in the case of startup in automatic mode, the condition is directly related to the size and content of the log being processed. Once again by design, Compaq Analyze uses as many resources as are available until processing is completed.

(ÙYou can speed processing by managing the system error log so that it does not grow indefinitely. When you are using manual analysis, it may be beneficial to filter large log files in order to improve processing times.
