• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CPD/PFP_MESSAGES534 - More than 200 objects in watch list; this impacts performance ?

  The SAP error message /CPD/PFP_MESSAGES534 indicates that there are more than 200 objects in the watch list of the Performance Analysis tool (Transaction Code: ST05 or similar). This can lead to performance issues because having too many objects monitored can consume system resources and slow down the performance of the system.
  
  Cause:
  
  Excessive Monitoring: The primary cause of this error is that the system is configured to monitor too many objects (more than 200) in the watch list.
  Performance Overhead: Monitoring a large number of objects can create overhead, as the system has to track and log performance data for each of these objects.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Reduce the Number of Monitored Objects:
  
  Review the current watch list and remove any unnecessary objects. Focus on monitoring only those objects that are critical for performance analysis.
  You can do this by accessing the Performance Analysis tool and adjusting the watch list settings.
  
  
  
  Use Filters:
