RTV Viewer Performance Benchmarks (Load Speed)
The MARS RTV Viewers (both Light and Advanced versions) are architected with performance as a key consideration, specifically targeting rapid initial display times to provide users with swift access to document content, even for large or complex enterprise files.
Performance benchmarks provide indicative load speeds under specific test scenarios, primarily measuring the time taken from request to the rendering of the first page of the document.
| Document Size (Illustrative Example) | RTV Light Viewer (Approx. First Page Load) | RTV Advanced Viewer (Approx. First Page Load) |
|---|---|---|
| 1,200 pages / 10MB | ~ 0.1 seconds | ~ 0.25 seconds |
| 5,000 pages / 40MB | ~ 0.48 seconds | ~ 0.56 seconds |
| 10,000 pages / 50MB | ~ 0.94 seconds | ~ 1.14 seconds |
Context for Interpretation:
- Initial Load Focus: These metrics primarily reflect the performance for displaying the very first page. Once a document is loaded, navigating to subsequent pages is typically optimized for much faster, near-instantaneous rendering.
- Real-World Factors: Actual performance experienced by end-users can be influenced by several factors not captured in controlled benchmarks, including:
- The processing load on the MARS server(s) at the time of the request.
- Network conditions (latency, bandwidth) between the client and server.
- The inherent complexity of the specific file being viewed (e.g., documents with many complex vector graphics may render slower than simple text documents).
- The performance capabilities of the client machine and web browser.
- Relative Speeds: The benchmarks generally show that both viewer versions are highly performant. The RTV Light viewer may exhibit marginally faster initial load times due to its lighter feature set compared to the RTV Advanced viewer, but both are designed to handle enterprise-scale documents efficiently.
These figures illustrate the design goal of minimizing user wait times when accessing documents through the RTV system.
