Nuxeo Quota initial computation freezes Nuxeo

Hi,

I met several issues when using Nuxeo Quota, but I'm not sure what exactly I should report on Jira, so I chose to post my story there instead:

• [MINOR?] After using Nuxeo for a while, Quota counts can get slightly off. I am aware than it also counts documents from the trash*, and already managed to fix the number by running a recomputation from the Admin Center. Are you aware of under which conditions can the quotas become off?

*On a side note, I'm not sure counting trashed documents matches users expectations [IMPROVEMENT?].

• [MAJOR COMBO?] Speaking of Admin Center, unfortunately the recomputation process can take a long time (my Nuxeo instance has 6000+ folders), and while it's indeed done asynchronously, Nuxeo can become slow to the point on being unusable in the meantime. On top of that, because of a lack of polish on the UI, I have no feedback that the recomputation is actually started after pressing the "launch" button, thus encouraging to click a few more times... until I realize that it only makes Nuxeo run the process multiple times, and often complete freeze, or even on one occurrence die with an out-of-memory crash.

PS: The environment is Nuxeo 5.7.1 with Nuxeo Quota 1.1.0.

Thanks

Hi Marwane,

The point is that Nuxeo Quota requires a lot of computation hen you turn it on on a big repository. I understand, we could improve this, but in most use cases :

• initial computation is done only once !
• initial computation is done with an almost empty repository

That's why we did not invest time on that point.
