You might shorten the time Rational® Publishing Engine takes
to generate an output document by trying these steps.
Procedure
- Use lists and paragraphs in your template
instead of tables whenever possible.
- Replace scripted sorts and filters by native sorts or filters
wherever possible. If you are using Rational Publishing Engine filters
in your template, Rational Publishing Engine is
processing the data from the data source. Instead, use native filters
to reallocate the filtering work to the data source application or
the Reporting Data Services Adapters rather than Rational Publishing Engine. See Extracting data by using native filters and Sorting data from a query for more
information.
- Specify authentication types for data sources and templates
in the document specification properties. See Specifying the authentication type for a
data source in a document specification for more information.
- Minimize the number of requests that Rational Publishing Engine has
to make from the template to the data source. The fewer requests you
have, the less time is required for a document to generate.
- Remove output types that you are not using from the document
specification. See Deleting output formats for more information.
- If you are generating documents remotely, but you are not
using the Central Management component, enter an individual Remote
document generation URL in the Remote services preferences instead
of one Remote services URL for all of the components.
