Very slow compilation

Post by Amos.Rosmarin »

Hi ,

It take a very very long time for PX jobs that uses transformer (px not basic) to compile (meaning 5-20 minuts!!!)

Does anyone as an idea way ?
It must be related to the $APT_COMPILE variables, I'm using the defaults.



Thanks,
Amos

Your server may be overloaded.

Your network may be overloaded.

Your mounted drives may be overloaded/nearly full.

You may not have enough memory.

You may not have enough/slow swap space.

Contact your system administrator and discuss with them about improving Sun's C++ compiler's performance.

There are no real options within DataStage that could improve the compiler's performance. The options chosen by default ensures that the object files are built to DataStage EE's exacting standard.

Are many developers using the compiler? with some setups, you have to obtain a licence before the compile can start. You may have only a few licences and lots of developers. Or the compiler might be 'hanging-on' to the licences for a while before releasing them back into the pool?

Are you specifying any environmental variables, overriding defaults?

Also, we've had some problems on compiles because the projects directory is actually on another server and sometime the network gets overloaded.

Hi,

I think it's the compiler license is stoping me. There should be more licenses on the machine.

Thanks all
