Problem

When generating a Time Tracking Report in Jira with a large project, this Jira will consume a large amount of memory causing the system to go into Full GC loops, causing the system to become unresponsive.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have an instance of Jira where a single project has a large amount of tickets
   • In my testing I had created 300,000 issues with no versions defined.
2. Navigate to the Project > Reports > Time Tracking Report
3. For the options available, I left it as:
   • No Fix Version - as my project has no versions
   • Issues All
4. Click Next

Expected Behaviour

Jira will generate the report

Actual Behaviour

• Jira spins and the system becomes unresponsive.
• Checking GC logs we see full GC loops:
