Anaplan XL Web performance

This page helps you with ways to improve the setup of the web and configure it for ‌improved performance.

The page gives tips on how to make the web start better for the first user of the day or for each user's first visit.

IIS will automatically unload the Anaplan XL Reporting Website if there is no activity for a certain amount of time. This could cause the first user of the day to wait.

There's a setting on the application pool that can keep the website loaded in IIS Manager. Go to the Anaplan XL Application Pool, right-click, and select Advanced Settings. Now set Start Mode to AlwaysRunning.

When a user first connects to Anaplan XL Reporting Web, it'll call to get the full name of the user. On certain domains, this call can take a few seconds. This can be turned off via this web.config setting:

<add key="QueryActiveDirectory" value="false" />
