    Hi,
    Yes, it is.  You can use the operators "FP-Growth" in combination with "Create Association Rules".  If you type "Associations" into the operator search bar you will find those operators as well as other helpful operators for this.
    Hope this helps,
    Ingo

    hi @apzhoney - if you mean tracking the computer resources, yes. Just go to View -> Show Panel -> Resource Monitor:

    Sir , what i'm looking for is the Execution Time and memory taken  by FP-growth algorithm to generate the rules. Is that possible with rapidminer?

    @apzhoney so for execution time, I would suggest using the Log operator before and after your FP-Growth and grabbing the timestamps. Or you can simply examine the log files that are automatically generated (Views -> Show Panel -> Log). As for memory usage, there is no way to easily see this on an operator-by-operator basis from the front end for lots of reasons....
