The Performance Settings are modified in the Console tab accessed from Performance | Console or Performance | Settings.
Customizing performance settings is a way to benefit from Platform's advance performance features. Setting initial defaults enable the use of basic performance features. Additional configurations can be applied, to customize performance to correspond with organization-specific requirements. These configurations are addressed in Performance Lifecycle.
Platform’s Performance settings are configured and viewed from: Performance |Console.
The Console section of the Performance tab is a main performance management screen through which basic details and commonly used Performance actions can be viewed as follows:
Performance Tab - Console
Initially the Console shows the installation defaults regarding which features are enabled (On or Off). Once changes are applied the console will be automatically updated with the new configuration settings (In some most changes are applied by restarting the Web-Server).
The following table lists the details and options available from the Console tab:
