To get a relatively accurate estimate of the file storage size, you can upload 10 typical images to FlexiCapture and view the size of
a file storage folder, in which the batch (<FileStorage>\<GUID>\project_<id>\0000-0999\<Batch Id>) is stored.
Estimates for the file storage obtained during testing are as follows: for 1 image, 3-6 times more space in the file storage than the
image size is needed.
File Storage
For the file storage, it is recommended to use a disk that is local relative to the Application Server (or a system of comparable
performance). To achieve maximum performance, it is recommended that the %temp% for IIS should be located on the same
physical disk as the File Storage.
In order to increase performance, it is recommended that a file storage folder should be excluded from the scope of anti-virus
software, Window indexing service and other processes that require long-term access to the disk.
Preferably use a faster hard drive (e.g., 15 000 rpm/second).
Application Server
Caching
In order
to decrease the amount of memory occupied by IIS, it is necessary to disable Output in the IIS settings. Using the cache
does not lead to increasing performance, as the identical information is not frequently requested by FlexiCapture.
Hard disk
IIS uses the hard disk intensively as all files transmitted through it are saved to the disk. System environment variables
TEMP/TMP are used by IIS as a directory for temporary files. By default they point to a folder on the system drive.
To achieve maximum performance, it is recommended to use a fast hard drive (e.g. 15 000 rpm/second) for storing the
TEMP/TMP folders.
Overriding the variables TEMP/TMP to a disk other than the system drive can lead to a significant decrease in performance, so
the system drive must be fast.
