Description

The SET PERFDIAL command controls the display of a performance dial within the performance meter. The PERFMETER command controls the display of the performance meter. The performance meter charts your progress through commands that would normally count on the screen. The performance dial spins according to the speed at which I/O operations are being performed. When PERFMETER and PERFDIAL are set ON, a box is displayed on the screen containing information on which command is executing and what percentage of the operation is complete. The performance dial displays in the upper left corner of the performance meter. The performance meter displays for the following commands:

• AVERAGE
• COUNT
• COMPILE
• COPY
• INDEX
• PACK
• REINDEX
• SET COMPILE ON
• SUM
• TOTAL

If SET TALK is ON and SET PERFMETER is OFF progress for these commands is displayed as a record counter.
