Benchmarking: Search Operations

edited Dec 2, 2019 3:16PM in SuiteCloud / Customization

I ran some benchmark tests with the search operations using the NetSuite webservice and I found that performing several small requests is actually FASTER than one large request.

For instance, I was performing a SEARCH for any inventory item inside NetSuite.  This results in a total of 653 records (for our particular company).  If I performed the initial SEARCH for 100 records, and then used the SEARCHNEXT function for the additional records, it was actually FASTER than simply performing a SEARCH for all 653 records.

If anyone else has done any time-tests for these functions, feel free to contribute feedback.

Howdy, Stranger!
