We believe at this point this problem is fixed, there were a number of changes in the recent version of Jira that improved the performance of reindexing.
Just to name a few:
- Upgrade to the recent Lucene version 7.x
- Optimization for the Custom Fields computation
- Increased number of Jira index threads to 20.
- If you have more powerful hardware, you can fine tune the number of Jira index threads.
That being said, we don't think the CPU is bottle-neck anymore and it can be properly utilized by Jira. Examples that we have some far, show problems related to slow DB performance or slow computation of specific user's Custom Fields, those are not related to Jira directly.
Initial Description
We have a big JIRA instance on a really good hardware:
- ~300k issues
- 48GB RAM
- 32 cores
- SSD in RAID
- PostgreSQL on localhsot
Still, reindexing does not increase the load above 4-5 (out of 32!), database is not under high load nor the filesystem.
Clearly this means that indexing is not properly using the resources in order to index rapidly.
Even with this configuration, a foreground reindex takes about one hour which is too much for a live system, in fact is too much even for a background reindex.

Solution
By default, Jira uses 10 Reindexing threads. You can tune number of jira index threads.
