#Performance

We have an HL7 feed that contains Lab Results. Each message contains a set of results, identified by a LabReportId. Some LabReportIds can get more than one message / set of results - these are updates, as new results become available, and must be processed in order. Results for different LabReportIds can be processed in any order.

As each message is used to build a PDF, which takes time, we want to run these through a production where the key business process has a Pool Size > 1, while still ensuring that messages for each LabReportId are processed in order.

I am currently managing environments running InterSystems IRIS and Caché on Windows servers.

I’m reviewing storage optimization best practices and I have a question regarding a specific Windows drive setting: "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties."

Based on my research, everything indicates that it is better to disable this option, especially on drives used by databases. However, I couldn't find a specific "official" stance in the documentation explicitly mentioning this checkbox.
