FishEye 2.1 : Configuring Indexing
This page last changed on Apr 20, 2008 by edawson.
Understanding How FishEye Indexes RepositoriesFishEye's administration interface now allows you to configure the number of threads used for repository indexing. FishEye uses two types of indexing operation:
The number of threads available for these indexing operations is now configurable.
Setting FishEye's Total ThreadsTo configure the number of threads FishEye uses for indexing, open the FishEye 'Admin Screen', then click 'Server Settings'. Now, click 'Edit Details' under 'Resource Limits'. You can increase the number of threads available for each indexing phase independently. Enter the desired number of threads for each process and Click 'Update'. Screenshot: FishEye Multi-threading Configuration Choosing a Thread SettingAs changing the number of threads always involves a trade-off in performance, you should generally change these settings in increments of one, then observe the performance impact. A safe range is from 1-3 threads on both settings. Using more than three threads on either setting is not recommended; the more threads, the busier the server will become when indexing. There is certainly no benefit in having more threads than you have repositories. Adding a lot of threads may impact overall system performance. For more information on managing FishEye's performance, see the FishEye Tuning page.
