Hi,
i have 14 panels in a vew and 5 of them have subsearches, and all these panels are single value panels . i am getting search queued error when the search is loading.. For a single user it is showing this error and what will be the situation if more than one user is accessing it.
I have tried istalling the same in a 2 Quad server. still the message persists ..
please help
Thank you

Look for these options:
max_searches_per_cpu =
