System Load Balance

The System Load Balance card displays the Transfer Manager's backpressure as a gauge (0-100%).

Use the toggle switch to select which worker group is displayed:

  • Regular: Utilization of normal and low-priority workers
  • High Prio: Utilization of high-priority workers
What does backpressure mean?

Backpressure indicates how many transfer requests could not be processed immediately and were cached. A consistently high value indicates a bottleneck in the Transfer Manager and may point to excessive connection load or too few worker threads.

Average Work Cycle Duration

The Average Work Cycle Duration chart shows the average processing time per item in the Transfer Manager in milliseconds. The value is displayed relative to the configured cycle time.
