Has anybody tried to put a queue exceeding physical memory size on a
solid state drive? With the 3km NAM nested our product lifespan went
down to about 4 min. ldmadmin vetqueuesize states 40 GB is needed, I am
not even sure that the current server supports that amount of memory.
I've found that the best performance is achieved by creating a ramdisk
to both hold the queue in physical memory, and performing calculations
(gddiag and such). Memory is cheap enough now that a box can easily be
maxed out with memory to provide more than enough room for supporting
the queue. However, I can say that using a mounted SSD would improve
performance somewhat from older drives, simply from an IO perspective.
best of luck
cheers,
