What issues can i run into using HR_PSBUFFER_INITIALIZE

[Former Member]

Hi

we are going to add FM "HR_PSBUFFER_INITIALIZE" with "HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION", for improving the perofrmance...as this FM is buffering the data and doing some EXPORT to memory. The result of this is that after a few hundred calls to HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION the buffer gets big enough to impact the performance of the function module. After thousand of updates with HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION , each call will take many seconds and your ABAP program will be unusable.

but i am concerned looking at [this thread|; ...can someone elaborate on issues we may face with using HR_PSBUFFER_INITIALIZE?

Especially in the above thread it is said that

 it wrecks havoc when we are trying to update records which are related to eachother

this is little unclear, what does it mean?

thanks in advance
