You have not indicated how complex your reports are. Rendering time will be impacted by that. It will also be impacted by the performance of your server hardware, available memory, other users doing stuff etc.

Hi lbendlin ,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

I don't think it's a complex report. When I tried on Portal, only took few seconds(less than 10) to get the pdf.

But when using REST API, way slower even 1 report, which will took around 20-30 seconds.

 

Currently I have 5 capacities, one with 4 cores, the other 4 with 1 core for each. And I'm trying to concurrently export around 100 reports, took around 5-6 minutes in total. Do you know what's the best practice to export a lot report parallel?

 

Thanks,

Vic (Xiaojun) Xie
