NetSuite Browser Performance

I am helping someone with NetSuite and client side performance is not very good for functions with lots of client data. We are currently using Chrome version 58 but have also tried Firefox.

The NetSuite client client code is quite heavy and it sometimes downloads / caches an honest bit of data, which slows things down on the client side (we verified that the slowdown happens on the client, not the server, not in transit).

I was wondering if anyone has any new extensions or methods to optimize Chrome or Firefox for situations like this, with sites / apps whose pages contain a lot of code and a lot of data. We don't need to open many tabs, but if we can optimize memory and / or processing power and make the most of the browser as a whole, or on a specific window or tab or on a specific page, that can help in performance.

Any suggestions?

Netsuite's user interface is pretty heavy by default. There are several things you can do to improve the general answer in Netsuite:

  • Adjust the list options to display a small number of results and with a minimum number of columns. For example, you can make your default order list display only orders from the last 3 months, and limit the display to document number, quantity, and date only.
  • Customize your forms so captions and optional fields are moved to secondary subtitles. Example. You can move the item sub-list in the sales order to a sub-heading that is not available unless you click on it. This way, the UI won't load this list until you actually click on the subtitle.
  • Minimize the number of scripts running on the page. Do your best to bloat your Netsuite instance. You can use a free SuiteApp called Application Performance Management (APM) to determine which scripts have the greatest performance impact, and then you can remove / disable unused packages / scripts accordingly.


As far as the browser goes, I try to keep a bunch of tabs open, so I have a Chrome extension called "The Great Suspender" to automatically suspend unused tabs and save some memory.
