Key Retention Paths
The Key Retention Paths view shows you a number of retention paths for the instance. More specifically, it shows you only paths that differ from each other most significantly. That's the main difference of this view comparing to other "retention views" which are mostly intended to show you shortest retention paths. Considering the example below: the Key Retention Paths view for the D object will contain only two paths: A > B > D and E > F > G > D. The path A > C > D will be discarded as it is almost identical to A > B > D.
Use this view to quickly see the whole variety of retention ways for the instance. In addition, the Key Retention Paths view can reveal you retention paths that are not shown by other views.
