topic Performance degrades in clustered setup in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/performance-degrades-in-clustered-setup/m-p/242653#M195783 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have setup a cluster of two Jboss nodes and I am using apache web server as load balancer. I have depoyed Alfresco 3.1 on both the nodes of the cluster and they are using a common database. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have observed that clustered setup of Alfresco is slower than standalone setup. I tried checking in around 20 files in a given folder and same operation takes twice the time on clustered setup as compared to standalone setup. Initially I thought&nbsp; that since I am creating new content and one node of Alfresco must be notifying the other node about the content creation, so that is an additional overhead.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>So I tried reading properties of files I have created. Even the read operation i.e. getting all the properties of a given file in cluster was taking around twice the time in cluster as compared to standalone Alfresco.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>My all three machines i.e. two cluster nodes and the standalone alfresco machine are identical in terms of configuration i.e. Java Heap space, perm space and CPU speed.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I thought that bottleneck in speed could be due to load balancer. So I tried to access one node of cluster directly and even there performance was slower by around a factor of 2.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I tried the above steps for a single user so it couldn't be an issue of load on server.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Do I need to make some additional configuration in my clustered setup to improve performance? </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Right now "dir.root" property on both the nodes point to a shared network drive and "dir.indexes.backup" and "dir.indexes" properties point to local directories on both the nodes. I have set "alfresco.jgroups.defaultProtocol" property as TCP and "index.recovery.mode" as AUTO.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 08 Feb 2010 14:01:28 GMT unknown-user 2010-02-08T14:01:28Z Performance degrades in clustered setup https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/performance-degrades-in-clustered-setup/m-p/242653#M195783 Hi,I have setup a cluster of two Jboss nodes and I am using apache web server as load balancer.
