Hi,

Sharing the method which is taking more time to execute .

byte[] result = executionService.Render("RPL", deviceInfo, 
    out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

executionService.Render: this method is taking almost 1.50 minutes to execute .

@vikash.kumar,
Thank you for the additional information. I’ve forwarded it to our developers.

We are afraid that the earlier logged ticket has not been yet resolved. Please note that it was logged in free support model and will be resolved on a first come first serve basis. As soon as we make some progress towards its resolution, we will inform you. Please be patient and spare us some time.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Unfortunately, we were unable to reproduce the error reported here, as you are using a very old version of our product. No performance degradation of presentation file generation is observed with later versions. When using version 23.9, the presentation is built in less than 2 seconds.
Please see below:

  1. check the export performance in the latest version of Aspose.Slides for SSRS (23.9);
  2. check if there is a performance problem with the export on SSRS itself (without resorting to coding). If there is no performance problem on SSRS itself, there is probably a problem with the network settings of the new operating system.
  3. remove unnecessary component from RDL file
<CodeModules> <CodeModule>GRID.GoogleMaps.Objects, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null</CodeModule> </CodeModules>

Additional remark. Changing operating system versions does not affect the algorithms of report generation (SQL, SSRS) and export algorithms of Aspose.Slides for SSRS.
Please note that the performance drop occurs in the executionService.Render method, but this method is not part of the Aspose.Slieds for Reporting Services library. At the same time, this method is responsible for sending information to and receiving data from the server.

Hi Asad,

We have tried with latest version of 23.9 dll from Report Viewer 2010 , SSRS2005 and Universal folder provided by Aspose and also installed the MSI Setup of 23.9 in SSRS Reporting server which is on window server 2019 but still report is taking 1.45 minutes to download the same report we trying with Aspose Slide dll 17.10 with window server 2012 it is downloading in 3 sec here we have only changed the operating system of SSRS reporting server from 2012 to 2019.

@vikash.kumar,
Thank you for the information. We will continue to investigate the case and will contact you soon.

@vikash.kumar,
It looks like the problem is in the executionService.Render method and this method is not part of Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services. This method belongs to the Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer class and is responsible for generating and forwarding report data from the report server. In order to make sure that the problem is with the data forwarding, you can check the export of the report to the presentation on the server itself - the export should occur without delays.
As an option to solve the problem, you can use a different method of receiving data from the report server, i.e. instead of using method

byte[] result = executionService.Render("RPL", deviceInfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

please try using the method

byte[] bytes = reportViewer.ServerReport.Render("RPL", deviceInfo, page);

Hi Andrey,

When We are using executionService.Render method with Aspose the report is taking more time to render in window 2019 but not in 2012 and the same method we are using without Aspose is much faster.

Below is the method using without Aspose and it is taking less time to render in PPTX format.

byte[] results = executionService.Render(PPTX, deviceinfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

Below is the method using with .NET Aspose Reporting Slides and it is taking more time.

byte[] result = executionService.Render("RPL", deviceInfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

@vikash.kumar,
Thank you for the additional information. We are working on the issue and will get back to you as soon as possible.

Please add all this in loop for further update.

@vikash.kumar,
Our developers have investigated the case. We want to focus your attention on the fact that neither method

byte[] results = executionService.Render(PPTX, deviceinfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

nor method

byte[] result = executionService.Render("RPL", deviceInfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);

is in any way related to Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services.

The difference in these methods is only in passing parameters to them. In this case, the transmitted parameters also do not relate to the Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services in any way. This method returns the result of the rendering performed on the report server, and again, neither this rendering itself nor passing the rendering result to the target object has anything to do with Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services. The work of the Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services begins only after the result of the pre-rendering has been received from the server, namely an array of bytes representing the RPL file. All the work of the Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services is contained in the renderer.RenderPage(rplStream) method and what happens before this call is not the responsibility of the Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services.

We recommend you eventually try to reinstall the server.

Do we need to re-install the Reporting Service or Window Server where our reporting service is installed?

Please Confirm .

Hi All ,

Not sure is the right fix or not but we need to keep doing alternatives to fixed it up.

I have seen it from one link in google.

If you have problems with Aspose.Slides for Reporting Services, please create a new forum topic and describe the problems you encountered. We will do our best to help you.

@vikash.kumar,

We think that it will be quite enough to reinstall the Reporting Service.
