Modification 1

Runtime

Analysis OnRuntime Analysis On

• Static activation of runtime measurement
  using the keywords SET RUN TIME ANALYZER ON and SET RUN TIME ANALYZER OFF.
• Dynamic activation of runtime measurement via System → Utilities → Runtime analysis → Switch off or using the function code /RON und /ROFF.
  For further information refer to development request 92212.
  

Modification 2

Transferring the performance data file from/to a local file

• To local file
  
  You can transfer a performance data file to a local file and retrieve it later. It is thus possible to save performance data files.
• From local file
  
  A performance data file transferred to a local file can be retrieved from this local file. The user must ensure that the local file is deleted at operating system level if it is no longer required.
