Content indexing is very slow in Confluence using MySQL 5.5

XMLWordPrintable

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding bug report.

      Summary

      When running Confluence on MySQL 5.5.x, content indexing takes a significant amount of time compared to when running on MySQL 5.6.x

      After running the same 5.5.46 database with the same driver on Confluence 5.8.15, the reindex takes about 5 seconds with the same amount of content.

      Environment

      • Confluence 5.9.1-OD-2015.39.1-0001
      • MySQL 5.5.46

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Stand up a Confluence 5.9.1-OD-2015.39.1-0001 instance
      2. Fill it with content
      3. Reindex (from scratch or otherwise)

      Expected Results

      In a Confluence 5.9.1-OD-2015.39.1-0001 instance running on MySQL 5.6, indexing from scratch takes about 3 seconds.

      Actual Results

      With this same amount of content (restored from backup) running on MySQL 5.5 the indexing is at 50% after 10 minutes. Each page can take anywhere from 10 seconds to a minute to be indexed.

      We can see multiple threads waiting to run an indexing task:
