Hi Thorsten,

<Connector URIEncoding="UTF-8" acceptCount="100" address="tomcat1" connectionTimeout="20000" debug="0" disableUploadTimeout="true" enableLookups="false" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxSpareThreads="75" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" port="8080" redirectPort="8443"/>
and
<Connector URIEncoding="UTF-8" port="8009" address="tomcat1" enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" protocol="AJP/1.3" />
the http-connector is only for testing. We only use the AJP-connector.

Yours
Arne

Hello Arne,

thanks for youre usefull informations. I will test it in the next week. Can you 
also give me your Connector parameters from the server.xml file? This settings 
are very important. The Tomcat default Values for acceptCount and thread are to 
high. We have reduced it to the follow:

<Connector URIEncoding="UTF-8" acceptCount="40" connectionTimeout="20000" description="non-SSL HTTP/1.1" disableUploadTimeout="true" 
enableLookups="true" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxSpareThreads="24" maxThreads="40" minSpareThreads="10" port="11121" protocol="HTTP/11" 
redirectPort="11123" />
Thanks and a nice Weekend
Thorsten

Betreff: Slide (2.1) - tuning. Make it faster and more stable.


Hi Thorsten,
we use Tomcat 5.5.23 and java version 1.5.0_10 and slide 2.1 with a Tx-filestore using openSuSE 10.2 . Now everything works fine (~2000 User a day / ~10 Gb Transfer / ~20000 hits). But in the beginning we had the same problems.

I try to give some hints to increase the stability of slide:
1. You have to patch the slide-kernel. There is a bug with concurrent access. In the file jakarta-slide-server-src-2.1/src/share/org/apache/slide/store/ExtendedStore.java at line 149 an ordenary HashMap is used. You have to change line 149 to:
    private Map suspendedLocks = Collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap());
To build the project use a build.properties
# ----- Compile Control Flags -----
compile.debug=on
compile.deprecation=off
compile.optimize=on
compile.target=1.4
build.compiler=modern
After that just change the slide-kernel-2.1.jar in the distro of slide that you are currently using. (Look at http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/installation.html) 2. Next turn off the "sequential-mode" in the Domain.xml. This causes slide to wait with the next transaction until the current is done. We had some dead lock with that. To turn it of open your Domain.xml search for <parameter name="sequential-mode"> and replace it with
           <parameter name="sequential-mode">off</parameter>
3. If you use clustering always and ever use the udp protocol (its default). Look (linux) with from time to time with lsof -p PID how many files the slide-tomcat has open. 4. Use Jconsole to monitor memory and thread management of the tomcat. To do so start tomcat with the option -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote (no needed for java 1.6). After that start jconsole (an X-Server is required) and connect to your tomcat. In the case of a problem you are now able to only restart slide in a running tomcat: Go to the MBean-tab and navigate to Catalina->WebModule->//tomcat/->none->none then use tab Operations and press the Button reload. For more information of the jconsole look at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/management/jconsole.html 5. To make umlauts work use UTF-8 everywhere and use a tomcat 5.5 and slide 2.1. 6. Use apache2 with mod_jk and the ajp protocol. You than are able to use slide within a load-balance -worker. It is easy to configure. But look 3. ! And configure the clustercacherefresher properly. If you make a mistake your store will be lost.

Thorsten, I hope this will help. More things may be done, but I don't remember.

Is anyone out there who has a problem with my hints or has other good slide-tunings. Make a post. I'm curious

Yours
 Arne
