We have been facing very high impact on performance due to search producing results more than 20000 objects.
I would like to know is there a way to set the minimum number of characters to be used for the global search.
The present scenario is searching with a*, t* etc., - I need atleast 3-4 characters to be used for the search.
Checking with PTC -
The preference below is to have minimum characters for the participant search.
com.ptc.netmarkets.participantPicker.requiredCharacterSearch
Default: -1
Synopsis: This property controls whether the participant picker requires a specific number of characters before executing.
Description: If the property is set to -1 (by default), then the participant picker will execute a search regardless of the number of characters in any of the fields. Depending on the number of participants in the system, an unbound search could cause a major performance delay. Changing this value to an integer will specify the number of characters required in at least one field before executing the search.
