Re: What exactly is "Character output size"?

Hi,

"what "Character output size" actually means? Is it a cell, a column, or what is the actual definition of this?"

Maximum Character Stream Size (MB):   5

Maximum size of a text stream (for example: HTML, XML) that will be transferred to the application server. If a text stream sent to the application server is greater than this limit, the generation is stopped to protect the server and an error is returned. 

•     Default: 5 MB

•     Range: 1 to 65535 MB

Note that

1. If your application server needs to convert XML to HTML for display, set the value of this parameter to less than 1/5 of the memory available on the application server for the XML transformation.

XML transformation requires:

5 * (size of XML) * (number of users for whom the transformation is executed)

For example, an XML file of 5 MB transformed for 10 users requires:

5 * 5 MB * 10 users = 250 MB of memory

2. If the Maximum Character Stream Size property is exceeded, then the Web Intelligence document will not be created and the client will receive an error message.

Hope this helps,
