Performance Tuning in Liferay

Liferay The default is not to turn on tuning parameters, so run slower, we can open some parameters to achieve better performance:

Today I did the following configuration:

(1) The following parameters are configured in the $liferay_home/portal-ext.properties:

Last.modified.check=false

Theme.css.fast.load=true

Javascript.fast.load=true

(2) We've disable all the filters in the $liferay_home/<tomcat_home>/webapps/root/web.xml.

(3) We disable all the infrequently used portlets in the $liferay_home/<tomcat_home>/webapps/root/liferay-portlet.xml.

As a result, our liferay will have good performance.

Performance test:

We use JMeter for performance testing, testing 5,000 concurrent users to access the Liferay home page, you can compare:

Before tuning:

After tuning:

You can see that throughput has risen from 17.7 requests per second to 22.1 requests per second, raising almost 30%
