Introduction

In this section a number of varied queries submitted in the production infrastructure, along with the response times of the gCube system are recorded. The target is to evaluate the performance of the search functionality provided by D4science services.

When submitting a query from the D4science portal, the procedure that is followed until the first results are retrieved is the following:

  • The Application Support Layer constructs the query according to the SearchMaster Syntax
  • It communicates with IS, in order to retrieve the EPRs for the search master running instances
  • The query is submitted to the SearchMaster
  • SearchMaster finds and returns a ResultSet EPR
  • The results are retrieved

Comments

XMLIndexer
Faster than FTIndex in most cases. Very good in low load. Problem in multiple, parallel invocations in the same node. At heavy loads, it gets stuck for some minutes until some cleaning procedure takes place.
FTIndex
In some nodes it's extremely slow (more than one second). In other nodes it is faster but again not as fast as it should be. This means that there is CPU or memory overload. Further analysis is necessary. FTIndex resources can cope with huge loads.
DIR
Not as fast as it should be. It may not operate in non-blocking mode so its delay may be the result of waiting for the full input RS payload to become available.
