Performance

Some long queries may impact system performance. The system administrator can set a timeout value to help mitigate the impact of long-running jobs. To do this, set the queryTimeout parameter to the number of seconds before a timeout occurs. The default queryTimeout value is 60 seconds.

Note:     Setting the queryTimeout value too low may result in sporadic query results and displays, depending on the utilization of the host. The queryTimeout value should not be set below 60 seconds except in well understood situations.

Queries run against a database are saved on the file system in WQML (Web Query Markup Language). You must make adequate disk space available for the results sets to be saved. To help manage these space issues Web Query uses the daysSaved parameter to automatically remove results sets older then the specified setting. The default daysSaved value is 7 days.
