WEBSPHERE PORTAL V6.1 TUNING GUIDE
WEB CONTENT MANAGEMENT TUNING
In general, the same tuning that was used for the Base Portal Scenario was used for the
WCM authoring, rendering and API Scenario. The main differences are to the cache
tuning settings: WCM increases demands on the portal access control component
which requires a different set of cache tunings to accommodate and WCM has an
internal set of object caches that can be tuned as well. On top of cache tunings, WCM
can require more Web Container threads and JCR data source connections than the
Base Portal Scenario, especially for heavy authoring workloads. The differences in
tuning are mentioned below.
Application Server Tuning
•
Web Container Thread Pool – we used 60 threads for both the minimum
and maximum value
•
Data Source Connection Pool – We used the following values:
Data Source Rendering Value
(min/max)
Authoring/API
Value (min/max)
JCRDB 10/150 10/150
