Server FE Benchmark

The FE Benchmark feature runs a standard formula engine only query against the current data source. It produces a FE Benchmark number that should help in estimating the expected performance in production.

If your laptop runs a query in 2 seconds and it's index is 200, then if you run the same query on a server that has an index 100 we should expect roughly 4 seconds ie. the query will take twice as long since the benchmark score was half.

note

This assumes that the queries are largely bound by CPU time, differences in performance could also be impacted by things like:

• memory access speed
• other processes consuming resources on the machine
