UseStargateForRules

Indicates if a rule uses the Stargate view.

Parameter type: optional, static

By default, any time a rule references a calculated value, the value is retrieved from a Stargate view stored in memory (if available). Using the Stargate view for rules, in most cases, results in a significant improvement in performance. It is more efficient to retrieve a calculated value from memory than to request and retrieve a calculation from the server.

In some unique instances that are difficult, if not impossible, to determine in advance and can only be determined through trial and error, retrieving a calculated value from a Stargate view is actually slower than requesting and retrieving the value from the server. In these instances, add the following line to Tm1s.cfg to instruct the Cognos® TM1® rules to always retrieve the calculated values from the server and improve performance.
