Performance tool — Statistics for services in the SERVICES-PAL log

The Performance tool presents statistics about an interactive user process. Your application can record many similar statistics for services execution in the SERVICES-PAL log, which is accessed by clicking Designer Studio > System > Operations > Logs.

The log file is in a Comma-Separated-Values format. Each row of the CSV file corresponds to a service interaction.
