Performance Testing of TM1 software

[saras]

Hi
Which is the best software Testing tool to do a performance testing on TM1? Any thoughts are highly appreciated.
Thanks

TM1 includes some tools to monitor the performance. You can get the details about TM1 Performance Monitor here:

You can also use Microsoft Windows Performance Monitor to view TM1 Performance counter:

Thanks for replying. I am looking for some third party tool which would stress or put a load on TM1 system and record the behaviour of the TM1 system (9.5.1 version). We are thinking of Loadrunner as such one tool to evaluate the performance. Do we have any other such tools? - Thanks SARAS

The development team at IBM use Loadrunner to test performance. I've heard it's big $$$.
We wrote an Excel macro to test performance of various 9.x versions by reading or writing data at slightly randomised times. I wouldn't say it would scale that well as you needed a set of actual client sessions in which to run the multiple copies. Bit of a Blue Peter job, but useful as it told us that the vaunted performance gains of 9.1 over 9.0 were (at the time) - shall I say - somewhat over vaunted
