      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When creating a link from a JIRA issue to a Confluence Page JIRA makes a normal browser request to the page. This menas that the entire page is rendered by Confluence before the link is created.

      When a page is very large or contains slow macros this can cause time-outs in JIRA as the page isn't rendered on time for JIRA to create the link.
      In JIRA this causes the following error

      ERROR user 947x1047x1 90m4kd /secure/LinkConfluencePage.jspa [plugin.link.confluence.LinkConfluencePage] Invalid response from getting the pageId: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
      

      From the Access logs it shows that JIRA is making a normal GET request to the page directly:

      127.0.0.1 - - [28/Oct/2014:15:47:55 +0000] "GET /wiki/display/ds/Copy+copy+of+Test+Render+Page HTTP/1.1" 200 8184 68133248 "-" "Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.0.1"
