<ul>
<li>Replace <code>lzop</code> with <code>xz</code> in log compression cron jobs on DSpace Test—it uses less space:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code># cd /home/dspacetest.cgiar.org/log
# ls -lh dspace.log.2015-11-18*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 tomcat7 tomcat7 2.0M Nov 18 23:59 dspace.log.2015-11-18
-rw-rw-r-- 1 tomcat7 tomcat7 387K Nov 18 23:59 dspace.log.2015-11-18.lzo
-rw-rw-r-- 1 tomcat7 tomcat7 169K Nov 18 23:59 dspace.log.2015-11-18.xz
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>I had used lrzip once, but it needs more memory and is harder to use as it requires the lrztar wrapper</li>
<li>Need to remember to go check if everything is ok in a few days and then change CGSpace</li>
<li>CGSpace went down again (due to PostgreSQL idle connections of course)</li>
<li>Current database settings for DSpace are <code>db.maxconnections = 30</code> and <code>db.maxidle = 8</code>, yet idle connections are exceeding this:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>$ psql -c 'SELECT * from pg_stat_activity;' | grep cgspace | grep -c idle
39
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>I restarted PostgreSQL and Tomcat and it&rsquo;s back</li>
<li>On a related note of why CGSpace is so slow, I decided to finally try the <code>pgtune</code> script to tune the postgres settings:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code># apt-get install pgtune
# pgtune -i /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf -o postgresql.conf-pgtune
# mv /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf.orig
# mv postgresql.conf-pgtune /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>It introduced the following new settings:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>default_statistics_target = 50
maintenance_work_mem = 480MB
constraint_exclusion = on
checkpoint_completion_target = 0.9
effective_cache_size = 5632MB
work_mem = 48MB
wal_buffers = 8MB
checkpoint_segments = 16
shared_buffers = 1920MB
max_connections = 80
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>Now I need to go read PostgreSQL docs about these options, and watch memory settings in munin etc</li>
<li>For what it&rsquo;s worth, now the REST API should be faster (because of these PostgreSQL tweaks):</li>

<li>Last week it was an average of 8 seconds&hellip; now this is <sup>1</sup>&frasl;<sub>4</sub> of that</li>
<li>CCAFS noticed that one of their items displays only the Atmire statlets: <a href="https://cgspace.cgiar.org/handle/10568/42445">https://cgspace.cgiar.org/handle/10568/42445</a></li>
</ul>
<p><img src="../images/ccafs-item-no-metadata.png" alt="CCAFS item" /></p>
<ul>
<li>The authorizations for the item are all public READ, and I don&rsquo;t see any errors in dspace.log when browsing that item</li>
<li>I filed a ticket on Atmire&rsquo;s issue tracker</li>
<li>I also filed a ticket on Atmire&rsquo;s issue tracker for the PostgreSQL stuff</li>
