SYMPTOM(s):

Performance hit when printing from Progress 4GL.

Outputting data from Progress 4GL to a particular printer.

Making changes to some database field values at the same time they are being outputted to the printer.

Tasks are performed on the same machine.

Progress sends a certain amount of data to the printer and then pauses momentarily before sending another chunk of data.

CAUSE:

Database tables whose data is being updated and sent to the printer at the same time have replication schema triggers that create log files on the System, which is what is causing the print delay.

FIX:

Add a dedicated print server machine to the System.
