Hi, I have a similar question. My layers are loading much faster, about 46 per second. But with ~30000 of them (and growing), it still takes like 10 minutes to start up Geoserver.
My questions are: 1. Is there a way to speed this up, such as not loading a layer until it's needed? 2. We have been storing our Raster (GeoTIFF) images on the file system. Would it have been faster if we store them in a database somehow? Would this be the more recommended approach? 3. During the Layer loading process, we are not able to do anything with Geoserver (such as sending a GET request for a layer already loaded). Is this the expected behavior? 4. I noticed that after Geoserver successfully loaded all the layers, it then goes through a 'Depersisting' process for some of the layers: 2015-10-26 18:30:30,927 DEBUG [org.geoserver.gwc.layer] - Depersisting GeoServerTileLayerInfo from C:\dev\apps\geoserver-2.2.5\data_dir\gwc-layers\LayerGroupInfoImpl--10d71042_1509744aecd_-7ff7.xml 2015-10-26 18:30:30,939 DEBUG [org.geoserver.gwc.layer] - Loaded tile layer 'WV_27893' which took another few minutes to complete. I'm wondering what does 'Depersisting' do and is there a way to turn it off? Thank you very much in advance, Eting -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/GeoServer-startup-time-2h-tp5232511p5232727.html Sent from the GeoServer - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users
