Re: [xwiki-users] Performance Frustrations
I would also check the speed of retrieving a simple/plain wiki page without the surrounding UI elements: /xwiki/bin/get/Space/Page If this is still slow then the reason must be a background task as Thomas suggested. If it's fast then it means some of the UI elements slow down the view mode. It may be a panel for instance.

Re: [xwiki-users] Performance Frustrations
Hi Thanks for the responses. Page you mention below just loaded a blank page (I assume that's the intention). CPU jumped to about 80% for that one request. That being said, performance has been a bit better today for some reason. There are a couple of extra tweaks I did this morning were: 1. Limited the activity plugin on the dashboard to only show the last 10 changes with 2 changes. 2. Disabled the image for one of the user's avatar. I have been happily adding documents today and it has been fairly acceptable. But that's just one active user. We'll see how it behaves when it has 10 users on at the same time. I might come back with more questions.
