In Iguana X, we have changed how queue counts are calculated to significantly speed up the startup process. To see this, try the following which will generate 1gb of log data for each of the AutoGeneratedComponents that were created in the previous tutorial.
STEP 1: Run the LogGeneratorCaller
From the dashboard, click + Component and look for LogGeneratorCaller. Click it, and then click Add
On the dashboard, double click the LogGeneratorCaller to bring up the card
Run the component by toggling the switch and look at the bottom of the card.
As logs are generated, status information will be displayed here
The status is updated every time the generator finishes generating logs for a component
Wait for it to read
All done
STEP 2: Restart Iguana
Now that the logs are generated, you can restart Iguana to see the impact that 100 components each with 1 gb of logs has on startup time
On Mac, you can use the IguanaController in the menu bar. Click stop Iguana, wait for a few seconds then click start Iguana.
On Windows and Linux, you can restart the service
STEP 3: Link components together and try a restart
The previous test shows the performance of unlinked components which is not realistic for interfaces
From the dashboard, click Edit Connections at the top and link together the AutoGeneratedComponent in pairs, in threes, or however you see fit.
Note that cycles are not allowed
Then restart Iguana as in the previous step
