[Archivesspace_Users_Group] performance issues

This is a default install of aspace running Jetty.
The last test migration was a few weeks ago, so I would have thought all indexing was finished long ago. 
We have a local mysql: mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.38, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.2
We have 27G disk available on the 4-core/4GB Ubuntu KVM VM.

More details below. Thanks very much for looking into this!

Hi Douglas,

Some quesitons: what is the heap space settings? are you running with jetty or tomcat?  and have you made any tweaks to the default setting?

What your seeing in the logs indicates that the system is indexing the records. Did you do a migration recently? 

b,chris.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] performance issues

I've not found the aspace interface to be fast enough for production use. Some of the retrievals it does while browsing take long enough that I wonder if I'm accidentally running in some sort of debug mode. Does such a thing exist? The VM our pilot is on is a 4-core/4gb instance which should be overkill for the six users we have during the pilot. Log spam in general is pretty bad with aspace, another reason I wonder if I'm running in some kind of debug mode.

Frequently I notice that java claims all the cores and the machine really begins to lag. I looked at the solr interface without really knowing what I'm looking for, is there some info there which would help me figure out what is locking up the java process?

At present the system is making log entries like "Indexed 12325 of 37427 archival_object records in repository University Archives" but I didn't delete the index to force a new one and I'm not sure why re-indexing would take so much processor time when we aren't changing anything.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions as to how to diagnose the poor performance.
