Description

The SET PERFMETER command controls the display of a performance meter. The performance meter charts your progress through commands that would normally count on the screen. When PERFMETER is set ON, a box is displayed on the screen containing information on which command is executing and what percentage of the operation is complete.

The optional AT <expN> qualifier repositions the PERFMETER to the row specified by <expN>.

The performance meter displays for the following commands:


  • AVERAGE
  • COMPILE
  • COPY
  • COUNT
  • DO (SET COMPILE ON automatic compilation)
  • INDEX
  • PACK
  • REINDEX
  • SUM
  • TOTAL


Example
