Best practice for DBAs is really to just treat ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB like any other user database. Caches of report results are stored in the ReportServerTempDB database and I/O performance can become an issue here. Unlike the system database tempdb, ReportServerTempDB is not recreated at startup.

The key metric for measuring the sustainability of a digital product is its energy usage. This includes the work done by the server, the client and the intermediary communications networks that transmit data between the two. An obvious metric here is CPU usage, but memory usage and other forms of data storage also play their part.
