Tuning a Rational solution for optimal performance or other non-functional requirements is challenging. User loads and usage patterns are always changing, and the constant change affects how you should tune your environment. In other words, you are dealing with a moving target. You want to tune your environment to work efficiently for the majority of the workload profiles that your solution will support. For basic information to keep in mind when you tune your Rational environment, see the tuning general guidance.
