The following table lists the startup parameters you use to tune standard procedure libraries for a session.
| Startup parameter | Suggested use |
|---|---|
| PROLIB Memory (-plm) | If you have a large standard library or a memory shortage, use this parameter to allocate a 512-byte cache for the library's directory instead of loading the entire directory into memory. This parameter slows the speed of library access but increases available memory. |
| PROLIB Swap (-pls) | Use this parameter to allow swapping from a standard library to a r-code swap file. OpenEdge typically reads library-stored r-code from the library instead of swapping to a r-code swap file. However, when using a library over a network, swapping to a r-code swap file might be faster than accessing the remote library. |
If you specify the PROLIB Memory (-plm) and PROLIB
Swap (-pls) startup parameters with memory-mapped
libraries, OpenEdge ignores them.
For more information about these startup parameters, see Startup Command and Parameter Reference.
