View Performance Setting

PROLIN Smart Client offers a performance tuning option for how table views are rendered, specifically when determining best-fit column widths. This setting can significantly impact loading times for views with many rows.

Purpose

When calculating best-fit column widths in views with a large number of rows, using all rows can degrade performance. This setting allows users to balance between presentation quality and application performance.

Location

The settings menu

The setting is available in:

User Options → Advanced

Available Options

  1. Adjust for best performance (default)
    Only the first 1000 rows are considered when calculating best-fit column widths.
    This significantly improves performance, especially for large datasets.

  2. Adjust for best presentation
    All rows are considered for best-fit calculations, which provides more accurate column widths but may reduce performance.

Note

Switching between these options requires restarting PROLIN Smart Client to apply the change.
