Large resource file management
Uploading large files as resources, such as videos or animations, can impact memory requirements and the performance of IXIA CCMS.
The rough dividing line between large and small files is at the 2MB file size.
Memory
Whenever a new revision is created for an object, a new copy of the file is created to preserve the content of each revision.
For objects like maps and topics, file sizes are small, so compress easily. However, some larger file formats cannot be compressed. Multiple revisions of uncompressed files can quickly use a significant amount of memory.
Performance
If a topic references a video or image file, the topic downloads it in the browser when you load the topic in IXIA CCMS Web. If you regularly embed large videos and images in topics, you may find that you have sluggish interactions with your topics.
