Deactivate performance measures

Is it possible to temporarily deactivate certain performance measures?

I recently added quite a few additional performance measure which seems to slow down the experimenter. Since it is time consuming to set up customized performance measure, it would be great to just deactivate them for certain runs.

Software Version:

FlexSim 22.1.3

You can do the following:

Add a Parameter called "DoPerformanceMeasures" or something like that. Make it a Binary type.
Add these lines of code to any Performance Measure that you want, as the first lines, before any real calculation happens:
```
if (!Model.parameters.DoPerformanceMeasures) {
  return nullvar; 
}
```

This way, a parameter controls whether the performance measure code runs or not.

Give that a shot, and see if it helps your case. If it doesn't, you'll need to post your model so we can better advise on what is actually causing the slowdown.
