Karl Wright created DERBY-6011:
----------------------------------
Summary: Derby performs very badly (seems to deadlock and timeout)
in very simple multi-threaded tests
Key: DERBY-6011
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6011
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 10.9.1.0, 10.8.2.2, 10.7.1.1
Environment: Lenovo laptop with SSD's, Windows 7, 64-bit, Sun JDK
1.6.xx
Reporter: Karl Wright
The Apache ManifoldCF project supports Derby as one of its underlying
databases. Simple tests, however, demonstrate that Derby is apparently
deadlocking and timing out repeatedly under multi-thread conditions. This
problem is long-standing, and is not exhibited by any other database ManifoldCF
supports, and makes a simple test take between 6x and 12x as long.
There is a trivial test with demonstrates the problem vs. other databases.
Please do the following (once you have java 1.6+, svn 1.7+, and ant 1.7+
available):
(1) Check out https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/manifoldcf/trunk
(2) Run the following ant target to download the dependencies: "ant
make-core-deps"
(3) Run the Derby test: "ant run-rss-tests-derby" . Note the time required - at
least 180 seconds, can be up to 360 seconds.
(4) Run the equivalent HSQLDB test: "ant run-rss-tests-HSQLDB". This test
takes about 31 seconds to run.
The output of the Derby test can be found in the directory
"tests/rss/test-derby-output". Have a look at manifoldcf.log, where all
long-running queries are reported. Derby.log is also included, which shows
only that during the test's cleanup phase the database is deleted before it is
shutdown, which is not pertinent to the performance issue.
I am available to assist with ManifoldCF, if that seems to be required.
