Poor Replication or XLA Performance

Most of this section addresses issues that may impact replication performance. Some issues, such as log buffer too small and reading from the transaction log files on the file system, can impact the performance of both replication and XLA applications.

Check Durability Settings

You can improve replication performance by setting TRANSMIT NONDURABLE on the replication ELEMENT to eliminate the flush-log-to-file system operation from the replication cycle. See Setting Transmit Durability on DATASTORE Element in the Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Replication Guide for details.

Enabling the DURABLE COMMIT option in your replication scheme also impacts performance. See DURABLE COMMIT in the Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Replication Guide for more information.
