If you notice that Cameo Collaborator performance has declined, it may be that Alfresco Community uses too much memory space for indexing. To increase the performance, we recommend configuring Alfresco Community to create fewer indexes this way reducing the memory usage. You can perform the procedure described below both for fresh and for running installations of Alfresco.
 

To configure Alfresco Community to create less solr4 indexes

  1. Stop Alfresco Community servers if they are running.
  2. Go to <Alfresco Community installation directory>\solr4\workspace-SpacesStore\conf and open the solrcore.properties file for editing.
  3. Remove hash mark symbols from the following lines:

    • #alfresco.index.transformContent=false
    • #alfresco.ignore.datatype.1=d:content
       
  4. Save the file.
  5. Go to <Alfresco Community installation directory>\solr4\archive-SpacesStore\conf and open the solrcore.properties file for editing.
  6. Repeat the steps 3 and 4.
  7. If you have performed this procedure right after installing Alfresco Community, the configuration is finished. If you already use your instance of Alfresco, proceed with the procedure and perform the following steps:

    1. Go to <Alfresco Community installation directory>\alf_data\solr4.

      Note

      Please pay attention to the folder path. This is a different solr4 folder from the one mentioned in the previous steps.

    2. Delete all sub-folders of the solr4 folder.
    3. Start Alfresco Community servers and give them some time to re-index.


Alfresco Community is now configured to use less memory space for indexing and you can continue your work as usual.
