Space Deletion process should not be able to crash Confluence

      When deleting a space within Confluence, the process should not be able to spike CPU or overload the database with requests. There should be a limit on the deletion process to ensure that the application does not crash when deleting a space.

            The problem is that the space deletion process is greedy and uses all available threads, thus taking down Confluence. The space that we were trying to delete was ~18GB and the problem is reproducible for any large space on Confluence 6.4.

             

            Separately, we ran into the same issue today (all available threads being utilized to delete a large space which was ~81GB).

             

            This bug should really be fixed as it impacts all users when Confluence administrators are performing these clone/delete operations on large spaces.
