Youtrack Hosted Peformance

Hi, we host our implementation of Youtrack ourselves. Here is the server specs:
8 cores @ 2.0GHz (Intel Xeon e5-2650)
10GB ram

Java settings:
  • Xmx8192m
  • XX:MaxPermSize=2048m


Currently we have version 5.2.2 set up.

With these parameters Youtrack performance at times gets really slow. Pages (serch, blank dashboard or an issue) pull up in 10, 15, 20 seconds, sometimes more. At other times we have better performance when there are fewer users trying to access it.

What can we do to improve performance?

Hello Michael,

Sorry for a short delay!
How many issues and projects are there?
Could you please try to restart YouTrack with
-Dexodus.gc.utilization.fromScratch=true

parameter?
Please note, this parameter should be used only once. It should optimize and collect the database.
Don't forget to backup the database!

Thank you.

We will give that parameter a try in the next couple of days.

Hello Andrey,

Will it be alright for us to pass both of these suggested parameters (Dexodus.entityStore.entityIterableCache.maxKeySize=2000 and Dexodus.gc.utilization.fromScratch=true) at the same time like so:

/usr/lib/jvm/default-java/bin/java -Xmx4096m -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m -Dexodus.entityStore.entityIterableCache.maxKeySize=2000 -Dexodus.gc.utilization.fromScratch=true  -jar /usr/local/youtrack/youtrack-modified.jar 8112


Or should they be performed one after the other restarting Youtrack each time?

Sorry it took us a while to test this. However, unfortunately this parameter didn't seem to help much. It's not all the time, I click one issue, it opens in a second or under, another issue takes couple of seconds, another - 5-6. Very often however I get numbers in 10+ seconds just for opening an issue in the browser. Something like 13 seconds or more.

Can you please suggest something else?
