Control Tower performance analysis
Here are the initial steps you can follow to diagnose and resolve performance issues in Control Tower (BP execution time slowdowns, overall slowness):
- Check available resources for the Tomcat server (APP Server). If there are not enough hardware resources, Control Tower performs slowly. Once there is enough RAM on the server but it is all consumed by the Tomcat process, find out the cause—usually some processes retain all memory.
- Check JVM options.
- Check the number of concurrent users. A large number of concurrent users can result in poor Control Tower performance. Ask users to close their browsers once they are done with their task and open it again once needed (not keeping it open and not opening multiple tabs).
- Change the log rotation if
catalina.outis a big file. - Check the list of steps in the Execution queue monitoring topic.
- Configure properties as described in the Configuration properties for performance tuning and troubleshooting.
- The thread dump analysis shows a quick picture of what's going on inside.
- Conduct the heap dump analysis is useful in case of high memory consumption.
