Allow to generate only specific topics in the compare configuration report

The compare configuration report quickly becomes a very large report which can easily crash the DOORS Next server if sufficient heap is not allocated. But even if enough heap is allocated, the EDG component only has 8GB fixed heap and many reports fail to generate after 3 or 4 hours. To alleviate this problem, and allow for successful report generation, could we request check boxes in the Create Report dialog for this report for the different sections of the report? The user would check which sections of the report are desired to be generated, which would allow us to just report on a particular aspect such as change sets or artifacts. This reduces the size of the report (which for us is 532MB or greater) and also the amount of heap required to generate the report, which can be dramatically different depending on what baseline we choose to compare against. (Choosing a slightly older baseline can easily double the amount of heap required to generate.) Allowing for only some sections to be generated essentially removes from the comparisons.dta template a lot of nested tables etc. that easily cause the report to grow large. I think this behaviour may be due to importing requirements into DNG using ReqIF / CSV / Word. Our 532MB report has 50,000 artifacts and 10-12 users and we compare the current stream with a baseline 18 days old. We cannot generate this in DNG as it requires 10GB heap to process and EDG has 8GB heap. There are 11 sections in the report. Change Sets, Artifact Types, Artifact Attributes, Attribute Data Types, Link Types, REQIF Definitions, Links Constraints, Folders, Tags, Views, and Artifacts.
