Performance issues

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I need some pointers as to how I can narrow down users' complain of poor response time/performance whenever they run a transaction.

I understand that there are many considerations e.g. PC specs/speed, network, etc that will affect users' performance but at least as far as the SAP servers are concerned, where the bottlenecks/choke points are.

From ST06, the paging is good as most of the hour-to-hour stats showed 0 or below the 100 range. This should mean that there are enough physical memory and is not a memory issue, right?

Is this the only stats I should be looking at?

Would anyone be able to advise on what are the steps that I should follow at least to say that the performance issue is not at the SAP end?

Thanks

Hello Sisab Nimda .

I think the following T-codes may prove helpful to you,

ST01 - Performance Measurement on the database tables and Buffers through System Trace.

ST04 - Performance Analysis, from where you get largest tables, fastest growing tables, etc.....and accordingly you can act

upon, which will boost performance.

ST14 - Application Analysis, from where you get top cubes, tables, psa tables and many more.

ST10 - Table call statistics, which help you in knowing the communication.

ST30 - Helps in understanding the load on the database.

Best Regards,
