Allows the user to monitor the status of ZipStream's compression system.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Compression Information ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The compression information frame shows graphical compression ratio
information, statistical information and information on the current file being
processed.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Cache Information ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The cache information frame shows graphical information on the performance of
ZipStream's Search and Grip caches.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.1. Search Cache ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The search cache information provides feedback on how well ZipStream is
cacheing information about the compressed state of files.
Normally you should expect to see this value remain high or above 90 percent.
Should the value be consistently low, the search cache size setting in the
ZipStream control panel should be increased.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.2. Grip Cache ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This information provides utilisation information on ZipStream's grip cache.
The grip cache is a part of ZipStream's Virtual File Cache that is used to keep
decompressed files in memory after they are no longer in use in the hope that
the user or application may request the information again shortly. After one
minute the contents of this cache are freed so that the memory can be used for
other purposes and not have a negative impact on system performance.
Normally this utilisation value should be low or zero with infrequent peaks of
up to 75 percent. Should this value be consistently high, you may need to
increase your grip cache allocation via the ZipStream control panel.
