Good afternoon,
Below are some settings that we have found to be beneficial (Note: You will need to restart the Gateway once the .properties and .cnf file changes have been made). Depending on the version you are running some may already be in place in the default code. Lastly ensure that you have at the very least 4 GB of RAM assigned to each of the nodes but for higher performance 16 GB is recommended.
1. node.properties
/opt/SecureSpan/Gateway/node/default/etc/conf/node.properties
c3p0DataSource.maxPoolSize=1150
2. system.properties
/opt/SecureSpan/Gateway/node/default/etc/conf/system.properties
com.l7tech.message.httpParamsMaxFormPost=5242880
com.l7tech.http.maxParameterLength=1000000
org.apache.tomcat.util.http.ServerCookie.ALLOW_EQUALS_IN_VALUE=true
com.l7tech.common.http.prov.apache.CommonsHttpClient.maxConnectionsPerHost=1500
com.l7tech.common.http.prov.apache.CommonsHttpClient.maxTotalConnections=3000
com.l7tech.server.policy.assertion.ServerHttpRoutingAssertion.statePool.enable=true
3. my.cnf
/etc/my.cnf
by changing this line:
max_connections=2625
to this:
max_connections=10000
4. ClusterWide Properties
io.httpConnectionIdleTimeout = 5s
io.httpCoreConcurrency = 750
io.httpMaxConcurrency = 1000
5. JDBC connection settings (if used)
Set the min and max pool size both to be a value of 150 on the jdbc connection settings.
We added the following properties to the jdbc connection
maxIdleTime 0 //c3p0 setting
maxConnectionAge 0 //c3p0 setting
idleConnectionTestPeriod 600 //c3p0 setting
EnableCancelTimeout true
Update Important Note: If you disable timeouts and connection max ages, ensure you have 8MB of memory per pooled connection to account for cached query data on top of the amount required for "normal" traffic processing.
Sincerely,
