The context change for processes under Windows NT is more time-consuming compared to UNIX. Therefore, the recommended number of work processes is smaller than compared to UNIX systems. The number of work processes is not calculated according to the number of users. Rather it is calculated according to the number of processors in the system and may be taken from the following table. You can determine the number of work processes using the CCMS Maintain Operation Modes and Instances: Tools ® CCMS ® Configuration ® Op Modes/Servers ® Operation mode ® Maintain instances Number of Work Processes under Windows NT
Number of Processors | Number of Work Processes |
1 | 5-6 |
2 | 8-10 |
4 | 15-20 |
The number of work processes depends on the number of processors and not the number of users.
