Firstly, what is a large number of roles? I believe GeoServer works fine with tens of thousands of layers, and if you have rather fine granular ACLs, that is a similar number of roles.
However, we currently have around 1000 roles, and while most of the GeoServer GUI is paged and can handle that many entries, one in particular is not: The (relatively new) Security tab, when editing a layer: [image: image.png] I believe this tab really struggles when accessing around 500 roles. Is that a reasonable number? I would appreciate users replying to this email to see the upper limit of what still works for them. Perhaps let's start with anything above 100 roles - that is perfectly manageable, I think. I have captured the issue (and how to reproduce it with the default data config) in Jira: https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-11129 Thanks Peter
