Will 25 copies of the same WebI report perform better than 25 users running the same report?

151 Views

I am a BusinessObjects admin. We are running BOE 4.1 SP06 Patch 4.

We have a subset of about 25 users that need to run the same report over and over all day long. I have user that is convinced that creating individual copies of that one report for each user performs better than all 25 users opening and running the same report.

So he has created multiple copies; something like this...

MyReportName-Adam
MyReportName-Beth
MyReportName-Charles
...
MyReportName-Yvonne
MyReportName-Zane

Each user opens and runs the report with their name. I think any perceived performance increase is merely circumstantial. As you can imagine this is a maintenance headache.

Thoughts?

Thanks
