Knowing the vast majority of the content accessed via SharePoint is stored in SQL Server, and also knowing an incorrect configuration of SQL Server can have a detrimental impact on the performance of SharePoint it is important to understand the integration of these two products. Regardless of whether you have a dedicated DBA, or the SharePoint administrator is also the DBA, there are critical SQL Server configurations that can be made that will improve the performance of SharePoint. Often DBA’s are familiar with how to manage SQL Server, but may not be familiar with some nuances that SQL Server has when integrated with SharePoint. In this session we will demonstrate how some default SQL Server settings negatively impact SharePoint and what changes can be made to improve the performance of SharePoint. These changes include database file settings and SQL Server instance settings. We'll also examine how to properly install SQL Server and SharePoint so they work together as efficiently as possible. This discussion will introduce the Best Practices framework that will allow your SharePoint administrator and/or your DBA to configure SharePoint and SQL Server to provide optimal performance for your SharePoint implementation

Which Machines cause the bottleneck?
New 2010 Performance Counters
Watch
CPU
Memory
Disk I/O
Network
11. SHAREPOINT FARM PERFORMANCE
Requests per Second (RPS): How many requests you
can service? RPS is used for measuring how many pages are
delivered. It can measure how many searches are executed.
Requests per Hour (RPH): Average user requests in an
hour.
Page Time (TTLB): How long it takes to deliver a page
back to the client? Used in conjunction with RPS
For example, our farm needs to deliver 100 RPS and
pages should reach the client within 5 seconds.
13. SHAREPOINT FARM PERFORMANCE
How many RPS are needed for your farm?
Actual: Use historical data
IIS Logs, Web Trends, etc.
Estimate: Number of Active Users
(# users) x (# operations per usage profile)
Factor in concurrency
14. SHAREPOINT FARM PERFORMANCE
Example:
100k users, 20k active, concurrency 5% to 10%
peak
10% light, 70% typical, 15% heavy, 5% extreme
20k x 20 x .1 = 40,000 RPH
20k x 36 x .7 = 504,000 RPH
20k x 60 x .15 = 180,000 RPH
20k x 120 x .05 = 120,000 RPH
844,000 / 3600 = 235 RPS
235 x .1 = 23.5 RPS required
15. SHAREPOINT FARM PERFORMANCE
What can our farm support?
Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS):
Storage vendors publish IOPS for their hardware.
Derive speed needs from RPS calculations
Derive backup needs from content size
1 IOP per RPS 1 IOP = 1 RPS
Measured with tools such as Iometer (originally
developed by Intel), Iozone, FIO and Data Test
Program (dt).
16. SHAREPOINT FARM PERFORMANCE
Example:
100k users, 20k active, concurrency 5% to 10%
peak
10% light, 70% typical, 15% heavy, 5% extreme
Our farm requires 23.5 RPS (IOPS)
Our farm supports 200 IOPS
Success! Our farm is well above the required.
Plan for 10 IOPS per AVG hourly RPS
Handle peak loads!
Success! Our farm can handle peak loads.
17. SHAREPOINT FARM PERFORMANCE
Understand SharePoint workload
Use RAID 10 over other RAID ##
And yes, RAID 10 for SharePoint is better than RAID 5
Separate your database files
** Tempdb is the most heavily used DB **
Place different databases on different volumes
Log files separate from data files
SQL Server files separate from other uses (e.g. OS files)
Separate your files according to I/O workload.
A single volume may be fast enough to handle several databases.
18. COMMON PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS
Large Lists
Lots of Web Parts importing non-cached data
from various places
Cross-List queries and CBQ Web Parts
Too Deep Site Structures
Too many sites in a site collection
Too many site collections in a Content DB
Too many ACLs
19. SHAREPOINT PERFORMANCE
We will discuss the following:
Large List Control
Performance Throttling
Developer Dashboard
Good for IT Pros and Developers alike
Caching
IIS 7.0
Content Query Web Part
20. LARGE LIST CONTROL
So what is new?
Lists and Libraries hold 50,000,000 items
Recommended List View Size:
Why 2000 or 5000?
Server Overload
Solution: List View Throttling
21. LIST VIEW THROTTLING
Limits the number of list items returned per
view.
Operations that exceed this limit are prohibited.
Recommended to configure at the Web
Application level.
Default List View Threshold values:
5000for Users
20000 for Auditors and Administrator
22. LIST VIEW THROTTLING
List can be configured individually via API
Daily Time Window for Large Queries: Turn off
Throttling during a daily window
Comes with a Warning
List View Lookup Threshold: How many
complex fields are allowed
Lookup, Person/Group, or workflow status fields
Result in JOINs
23. PERFORMANCE THROTTLING
HTTP Request Monitoring and Throttling:
Throttle Performance during high server load
SharePoint monitors performance counters and
uses threshhold values
Get 503 request errors
Timer Job fails to start
PUT request still allowed
Search can trigger performance throttling and
cause issues
24. PERFORMANCE THROTTLING
Protects the server during peak loads. Monitors:
Available Memory
CPU %
ASP.NET Queue
Wait time in queue
Checked every 5 seconds
3 over limit start throttling, logs events
1 below limit stop throttling
Configure via PowerShell and Object Model
Adds/Remove counters via Object Model
25. DEMO
List View Throttling and Load Performance Throttling
31. CACHING
Page Output Cache: for generated HTML markup
for future requests
Cache frequently used Lists and reduce round trips to
the database
Object Cache: for common objects and query
results
Content Query Web Part
List Views
Disk-Based (BLOB) Cache: for commonly
requested files on WFE disks
Automatically cache BLOBs and reduce round trips to
the content databases
32. CACHING
Configure caching via the Site Settings
Configure caching via web.config for Web
Applications.
Web.config overrides the Site Settings.
34. IIS 7.0 PERFORMANCE
Design pages for fast downloading and
rendering
Lazy loading of large JavaScript files
Clustering images
Reduce image requests
Reduce the number of secured items in pages
Each secured request results in two roundtrips
Validate
credentials
Enumeration of groups the user belongs to
Leverage IIS Compression
35. IIS 7.0 PERFORMANCE
Reduce amount of data sent to client and
reduce the number of trips a browser makes.
View State Caching and Reduce Payload.
Cache View State to be used in subsequent post-
backs
Minify JavaScript
Remove redundant white spaces and new lines
Reduce File Requests
Merge multiple JavaScript/CSS files in one request
36. IIS 7.0 PERFORMANCE
Increase static and dynamic compression level to 9
Appcmd.exe set config -section:httpCompression -
[name='gzip'].staticCompressionLevel:9 -
[name='gzip'].dynamicCompressionLevel:9
Change dynamic compression CPU utilization
threshold range from 20-75% APPCMD.EXE set config –
section:httpCompression /dynamicCompressionDisableCpuUsage:75
APPCMD.EXE set config –section:httpCompression
/dynamicCompressionEnableCpuUsage:20
Enable caching before insertion into page output
cache
APPCMD.EXE set config –section:urlCompression
/dynamicCompressionBeforeCache:true
38. CONTENT QUERY WEB PART
Powerful web part for aggregating and rolling
up information from various sources.
Designed to leverage the object cache by
caching the query results.
In MOSS 2007, Disabled by default
In SP 2010, Enabled by default
Best performance when content shares the
same permissions and doesn’t change often.
42. DEVELOPER DASHBOARD
