On the data collection page you can adjust various parameters related to the way Insider collects and process the data retrieved from the servers. You can select the desired refresh rate by either dragging the slider at the top or manually setting the values for rare, medium and frequently updated statistics information

|---|---|
| Manual settings take precedence over the slider i.e. it is the numbers for Rare, Medium and Frequent that will eventually be used |
If a server becomes irresponsive due to high load Insider will automatically increase refresh rate until it gets server responses in a timely manner, overriding user-defined parameters. You can choose to disable this behaviour by unchecking Increase refresh rate on slow response box
To avoid getting occasional peaks in the statistics gathered from the servers we recommend that you smoothen the data by allowing Insider to average the statistics over several measurements. You can choose to select the number of measurements to smoothen your data over or to not use averaging and see the actual data

| High refresh frequency should be used with caution. Setting refresh frequency too high may negatively affect your server performance as well as slow down Insider itself especially if you have configured many items on Enterprise view |
