Relationship Tabs and Performance

Because of the number of security evaluations CA IdentityMinder performs, rendering a relationship tab can significantly impact performance. The factors that determine performance vary depending on the type of tab.

For role relationship tabs, the following factors can impact performance:

• Number of roles where the task's subject is a member
• Number of roles where the task's subject is an administrator
• Number of total objects in the system that CA IdentityMinder requires to calculate the subject's roles
• Number of member/admin policies per role
• Complexity of the member/admin policy scope rules
• The ability to maintain cached authorizations for the task invokers to limit the effect of the security enforcements

To determine group membership and administrative privileges on group relationship tabs, CA IdentityMinder must search all of the groups in the user store. Performance of these searches depends on the following factors:

• Number of group objects in the user store
• Number of members in any group
• Performance of the database or directory where the user store exists
