Links and Planning
Hello,
A recent acquisition is running RTC 4.0.5. They are using the SCRUM template and imported work from a waterfall project (MS Project) they were working on. They now have 10 Epics, 30 "sub" Epics, which goes to epics, stories and tasks. As an example, I opened up a random task and it had 12 parent links. All of their work is this way, and opening up a Tree view or Taskboard can last about 60plus secons...saying Loading Tasks/Loading Links forever. Has this part of planning improved in 5.0.1? I am assuming that there are companies using even larger plans. As a bonus question, does IBM work around this using tags or fields. thanks |
Accepted answer
Hello,
my understanding is that the number of links for each work item in the plan will impact performance when loading it.
Q: Has this part of planning improved in 5.0.1?
A: possibly - yes - see [CCM] Investigate potential plan loading performance improvements for plans that use tree views (305819) for 5.0.1
Also note that in 5.0.2, Dev implemented Improve performance of ILinkRestService (326836)
Now I am concerned with " I opened up a random task and it had 12 parent links"
Whereas a given work item can have n children,
any work item can have a single parent.
What degree of confidence can we have about this Project Area "health" in terms of Planning and Work Item.
I would vote for opening a ticket to IBM Support - https://jazz.net/help/support/
