Design for performance: hints and tips

 

Here are a few ideas to help you to design efficient applications:

• Design your application so that processing goes on in parallel with a user’s thinking time:

  • Display a panel and allow the user to start typing while the application is still initializing.

  • Get the data that we need in parallel from different servers.

• Keep connections and queues open if you are going to reuse them instead of repeatedly opening and closing, connecting and disconnecting.

• However, a server application that is putting only one message should use MQPUT1.

• Keep your messages within a unit of work, so that they can be committed or backed out simultaneously.

• Use the nonpersistent option for messages that do not need to be recoverable.
