Performance

Owned by Frank Polscheit (PSIT)
Last updated: Dec 17, 2015

Within your browser, you can see end-to-end as well as loading performance figures. Please proceed as documented below, depending on the browser you are using.

Within an optimized JIRA infrastructure based on high-performance server with fast SSDs, you can load 1.000 issues within less than 3 seconds.
Load times depend on the performance of your JIRA server as well as database server. If your JIRA delivers chunks of issues (by default 50 issues per request, the last one can be less) too slow to the browser, the Gantt-Chart addon cannot display them faster.

  1. Open your browser's console:

    Browser
    how to open the console window
    Google Chromehit  on an Apple MAC / OSX or click on the browser's menu on the top right, select menu item "Tools" and choose sub-menu item "dev. tools"
    Apple Safarihit 
    Mozilla Firefoxuse the free add-on "FireBug" (you have to manually install this add-on into your Firefox)
    Microsoft IE10/11hit keystroke "F12" 



  2. Select tab "Console", which can vary depending on your browser

 

To give you another benchmark for comparing your own JIRA environment with a typical hosted scenario: a virtual server by hosteurope.de needs less than 10 sec. to retrieve and display 1000 issues.

 

The complete console output is listed below: as you can see, the average load time for a chunk of 50 issues is about 2 seconds. To reach the goal of loading more than 1000 issues in less than 10 seconds (almost 9 sec.), I am loading 6 chunks in parallel. Therefore, please ensure that you have enabled connection pooling for your database server and enough parallel requests configured.
