Identify SQL Performance Issues
If you are running a 6.5.X version of the Stewardship Tier or above, you can employ a framework utility called the Page Performance Monitor.
The Page Performance Monitor is a utility included with the Stewardship Tier intended for technical users (those who are responsible for debugging SQL performance issues). Use it on custom pages to troubleshoot performance issues and to deter
Generally, there are two metrics that can help troubleshoot delays in load time: the 'dgResponse' and the 'RuntimeUtils.' The 'dgResponse' portion has a long and variable duration, while the 'RuntimeUtils' portion has an average and consistent duration.
The 'RuntimeUtils' portion consistently correlates with the number of columns displayed on the Horizontal View of a page. The more columns you have on the Horizontal View of a page, the longer the page will take to load.
The 'dgResponse' portion is a result of the performance of the page's underlying '%hor' view (Horizontal View). When there are too many columns in the %hor view of an underlying table, or complex logic embedded within the view (aggregations, etc), it prolongs the times it takes to complete queries, which affects the page's performance.
To access this utility, click Ctrl + Shift + K.
NOTE: If the Debug Mode option is enabled for a user’s profile, that user can access the Page Performance Monitor by selecting the Metrics option in the Settings menu. Refer to Configure User Settings for more information.
