:If packet drops appear, the packet analyzing threads might be overloaded. This can be checked in the load statistics.  

The current load percentage can be clicked to get detailed information about each system component. If the analyzing threads tend to have significantly more load than the DB threads, it is recommended to increase the '''DB thread factor''' in allocate less DB threads and use more analyzing threads.

:If DB message lost counters appear in the detailed [[System_Info_Page|load]]  statistics (by clicking on the current load percentage), it means that the DB threads where not capable of processing the data created by the analyzing threads.

In this case it is beneficial to decrease the '''DB thread factor''' to use more DB threads and thus decrease the load per thread.

The '''Queue multiplier''' is an integer value which is used to multiply the queue size by this value. The value should be chosen carefully as a value of 10 already makes the queue ten times larger but also uses ten times more memory and can also increase the latency of the displayed measurement values by a factor of ten. If regular overload appears, a larger queue usually does not help much as it will just delay the message lost.
