We are using Telerik reporting (now Q1-2008) to stream a pdf report to a file. Then we stream the file to the web browser.
In the process, we've come across a few issues with the reporting engine
- If a textbox that is set "CanGrow=True" has too much data (a few pages). The report engine goes indefinately, until it times out (acts like it is in an endless loop).
- The overall rendering speed is dramatically slower than the PHP/Mysql application it is replacing. For identical Data (and for both applications, the dataset or equivelent being returned in under a second), for roughly 225-260 page report (due to border spacing issues, it is more pages in Telerik reporting), the performance is 3 seconds in our original report, and over 45 in the Telerik Report.
Is there anything that can be done to improve performance? I know I read that you are aware performance is a bit sluggish, but 1/15 the speed is BAD.
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Hi Jason,
We've just performed the following local test - sample report with 1 DetailSections, 1 TextBox with CanGrow and text long enough to split on several pages (4 pages). The result of the test is that it is exported in PDF and Image correctly. Please open an official support ticket and send us the report that fails to render in PDF, so we can examine it and get back with a proper solution.
As far as the performance is concerned we still experience some problems and I can assure you that we are working on it. You have mentioned that there is a problem with some border spacing. We will appreciate if you elaborate a little more on this and describe what exactly is going wrong, so we can fix it too.
Thank you for the understanding and the patience.
Sincerely yours,
