SPE 8.1+
We recommend setting the InMemoryFilesystemSize and InMemoryFileScanCacheSize settings to 40% of the installed RAM on the scanner. These settings can be set using the following xmlmodifier commands:
xmlmodifier -s //filtering/Container/InMemoryFilesys​temSize/@value <value> filtering.xml
xmlmodifier -s //filtering/Container/InMemoryFileScanCacheSize/@value <value> filtering.xml
Replace <value>
with the size in megabytes.
The xmlmodifier tool is located in <install dir>/bin
on Linux and <install dir>
on Windows. It should be run from the commandline.
