The OpenEdge Hive

Many sites become concerned about the performance of their ABL application at some time in the history of the site. While a big performance boost can often be achieved by simply moving to newer (and probably cheaper) hardware, this is not always an option, either because a reasonably powerful machine is already in use or there isn't sufficient budget for a change. The following links have been collected to provide some help for those concerned with performance.

ProTop monitors various VST statistics and presents them interactively much like the UNIX "top" monitor.

Readprobe: A tool for determining the maximum number of records per second that a given machine can process.

Pmon: A basic unix shell script for monitoring your database. The script functions by "screen-scraping" PROMON.

Profv9: A 4gl v9 profiler output analysis tool.
