We use Win911 which uses OPCUA, realtime tag providers, and alarms journals to provide an alarm management solution. The problem is that its slow and gets slower over time. We have a dedicated gateway with the 60 remote tag providers and 1 database alarm journal. Its a very powerful ignition gateway and memory and CPU usage isn't an issue. What settings do you think I can adjust or try out to increase the performance? ---

I'm not sure you've described your architecture, how Win911 fits in, or even what "its slower and gets slower over time" even means - what gets slower? Please go into much more detail. ---

Unfortunately there is extremely little I know or Win911 knows about their software so I will do some more digging.
