Limitation on number of files in a space?

fschnell

Dear all,

is there a limitation for the number of files in a space? I am not
looking for a technical limit, but rather a limit from when on using
the system becomes awkward.

I noticed that it may take ages (minutes) to open folder which contains
1000 files or more.

Do you experience the same issue?

The general rule-of-thumb is to try to keep it to less than 2000. This is dependent on hardware and memory allocation so if you're experiencing slowdown with 1000 objects in a particular folder/space, then you will need to tune your JVM (see http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/JVM_Tuning) and/or reduce the number of objects in a given folder. Also make sure you're using a "real" database as opposed to the embedded Java databases (HSQLDB or Derby) that we include for evaluation purposes.

Yes, we are using a real database (Oracel 9iR2). Our systems integrator (Alfresco partner) claims, we should stay below 300 files per space for accaptable performance, and that the web interface would be considerably faster than the CIFS interface. Any views on that?
