Improving client host performance
View cachesTo improve its performance, the view_server process associated with a view maintains a cache. The default size of this cache is adequate for typical views, but a larger cache can further improve the performance of views in which very large software systems are built by omake or clearmake.
Reconfiguring a view cacheUse setcache –view to reconfigure a view server’s cache to a new size.

Reconfiguring a view cache

Use setcache –view to reconfigure a view server’s cache to a new size.

About this task

The ratio of memory allotted to each subcache is fixed. When specifying a cache size, keep the following guidelines in mind:

The value cannot be smaller than 512 KB.
Do not specify a value larger than the amount of physical memory on the server host that you want to dedicate to this view.
Larger cache sizes generally improve view performance.
Verify your changes by checking the hit rates and utilization percentages periodically to see whether they have improved.
To specify a new cache size for a single view, use the setcache –view command.
