Duration of an Abap Function call from Java using Jco3

[Former Member]

Hi guys!

I would like to use this discussion to get some refernces of the duration Timespan of an RFC call from Java to SAP. At the moment, i need at last about 200ms to call the Abap function. I'm just using one simple import and export parameter (so no deep structures). I think that the reason for my poor performance is, that the Java Tool and the SAP instance are not in the same network. So, i hope some of you have some data, how fast an RFC call from Java using Jco can be executed.

Hi Hannes,

I think you have already got the answer to your question - the network set-up you have is probably the bottleneck.  Whenever I've worked with Java <-> ABAP and they are in the same network, I've had no performance problems at all.

Does your RFC contain any complex logic or business processes?  Are you able to try and call something that does nothing, say it just accepts an input string and returns it straight away as an export.  Do you have any scope for testing with your Java tool on the same network as the SAP system?

Cheers,

Hi Gareth,

thanks for your reply! Yes, in fact i'm just calling an abap function that does nothing, only accept the input and returns it as export.

At the moment, i have no scope to setup the test scenario where sap and java are in one network, but by your reply, i think i don't need to be concerned to have these duration times also in a real system (when sap and java are in the same network).

Thanks for the information,

greetings
