The percent of a message buffer to fill before sending it to a waiting remote client.
Use Prefetch Factor (-prefetchFactor) to
establish a percentage of a network message required to contain prefetched data before
sending the message to a waiting remote client.
The number of records in a network buffer is also influenced by Prefetch Num Recs (-prefetchNumRecs) parameter. See for a discussion of the interaction between the parameters.
To change this parameter while the database is running, use PROMON or the _DbParams VST.
You can use this parameter to support continuous operation of the database. For more information, see Change database parameters while the database is running.
