Let Λ = (λ n) be an increasing to +∞ sequence of non-negative numbers, λ0 = 0, and by S(Λ, A) we denote a class of Dirichlet series \(F\left(s\right)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty }{f}_{n}\text{exp}\left\{s{\uplambda }_{n}\right\},s=\sigma +it,\) with the abscissa of the absolute convergence σa = A ∈ (−∞,+∞]. For σ < A we put MF (σ) = sup{|F(σ + it)| : t ∈ ℝ}. The growth of the function F ∈ S(Λ,+∞) with respect to the function \(G\left(s\right)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty }{g}_{n}\text{exp}\left\{s{\uplambda }_{n}\right\} \in S\left(\Lambda ,0\right)\) is identified with the growth of the function \(\left|1/\right|{M}_{G}^{-1}\left({M}_{F}\left(\sigma \right)\right)|\) as σ → +∞. In terms of generalized orders, the connection between the growth of this function and the behavior of the coefficients fn and gn has been studied.
