But we did some lab tests on EPM 11.1.2.4 running on Windows on proper hardware (32 physical cores) and I have to admit that big consolidations were really flying on that box. Consolidation times were in some cases dropping by 50-70% from those observed on EPM 11.1.2.3. So yes, some applications will see great benefit from the way HFM 11.1.2.4 can utilize more CPU resources. Of course it depends on the way the application is built though because being able to run many low-level consolidation threads in parallel is the key to these performance improvements.Henri Vilminkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16367799771321317998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6873528634794784349.post-49430070418760814752015-03-12T22:35:13.056+02:002015-03-12T22:35:13.056+02:00Nice post, thank you.
