[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Extreme sluggishness with classifications

We are in version 2.6 and have similar sluggishness with some of our classifications (the largest has about 4,991 linked resources).  It takes 1.9 minutes to load our classification with 4,991 linked records.

We don’t have many classifications set up right now, in part because we don’t use the PUI, and also I’m not certain if the classification module has an upper limit on # of linked records – is 4-5000 linked records already too many?  We’d like to use the classifications to do more to connect related resources, but need it to scale to large numbers of records.

Olivia,

We had reported this problem back in release 1.5.4 (https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-652<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Farchivesspace.atlassian.net%2Fbrowse%2FANW-652&data=02%7C01%7CKennedyN%40si.edu%7C0d380b68e00e46a5d4fc08d7d7dda336%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C1%7C637215219275834553&sdata=Oc1WKltoUBTeK%2FVD%2FTD%2Fb%2FW1HzauKLdAca67WinYJkA%3D&reserved=0>), and some work was done. However, performance did not improve significantly and we were forced to abandon classifications. We would have preferred to use classifications, though, and would love to hear about what others have done to deal with the slow load times.

Best,

Hi all,

Has anyone else experienced extreme sluggishness with loading and displaying classifications/ classification terms? We are experiencing sometimes minutes-long lag time for search results, autocomplete functionality when you are trying add a classification/term in a resource or accession record, and in saving a new classifications/terms.

In our case, we are using classifications for 2 main buckets: collection strengths and subunits — administrative divisions or umbrella collections we have at the Briscoe Center. Each has about 15 children. Some of the children have a few hundred associated records. So two main tiers. The classifications and, one level down, their children.

We are using version 2.4.1. Why might we be experiencing such sluggishness?

Thanks!
Olivia
