I'm afraid I'd have to agree with IBM on this issue. There is no way a
green screen should *hang* for a second or two because of communications.
But, you guys do what you can afford and tolerate, I just know that I
wouldn't be able to stand it. Our box used to be a couple of hundred
miles away as well and we never had any issues like that. What kind of
connection is set up between your WAN points?

Re: [WDSCI-L] RdI vs SEU






There may be communication issues when it comes to the speed of
WDSCi\RDi\RDP.

Our programmers develop in test environment. The test environment is a
relatively small partition of an IBM i located several hundred miles away
in another state. Between the size of the partition and the speed of the
Internet connection, we commonly experience short delays.

The green screens handle the delays well. They freeze for 1-2 seconds
(sometimes several seconds) and then continue processing like nothing
happened.

WDSCi\RDi can't handle these delays. They hang for 30-90 seconds (or more)
and then give us pop-up messages telling us about communication delays. I
haven't tested RDP. But I'm guessing it's the same. RDP likely
communicates with the IBM i the same way as RDi.

We talked with IBM and their response was: WDSCi\RDi\RDP working as
designed, move your box to where your developers are located or upgrade
your hardware (system partition and Internet technologies).

WDSCi\RDi\RDP are more sensitive to communication delays with the IBM i
than the ADTS tools.

What's your biggest complaint? The auto-correct, or the line length?


Speed ... WDSC, RDi, & RDp, all take a huge amount of time parsing
large, pre-formatted, CL lines. The editor will hang up for 30-45 seconds
on each edit of a statement.



Seriously?? When you say "large" what do you mean? Hundreds of
characters? Thousands? Big, complex expressions? I've had delays
measured in seconds, but never more than perhaps 10.
