Summary :
Extended response times in SAP GUI may be due to delays in the system, network transfer, or frontend display. Users can assess system performance through transaction STAD, identifying CPU, DB request, and wait times. Network times, including round trips, can be estimated with "FE net time" and "GUI time," though inaccuracies exist (see note 679918). For precise network assessments, perform calculations with throughput and RTT or utilize niping (note 500235). Solutions vary based on the bottleneck's location, including system optimization, bandwidth enhancement, and frontend hardware upgrades.

Key words :
