DISCUSSION
The following is a list of EFT object types and their maximum safe operating
limits. These limits were derived from numerous quality assurance tests
conducted on server hardware that meets our recommended system
requirements. Upon service startup, EFT will do a count of these objects and write a warning to the Windows Event Log and WARN log to eft.log if a limit is exceeded.
It may be possible to exceed these safe operational limits to a significant
degree if the underlying hardware is improved; however, as objects increase,
and depending on their composition and configuration, risk of adverse
performance will also increase.
Globalscape will attempt to support, but cannot guarantee remedial action
to hangs, crashes, or slow operations that are or appear to be a by-product
of exceeding maximum safe operating limits as defined here.
If you find yourself exceeding these limits, we recommend reaching out
to us. Sometimes we can recommend configurations that achieve your same
business goals in a more streamlined fashion. For example, crafting a
single generic event rule for handling a file upload from multiple partners,
rather than one rule per partner.
