What version are you running? Older (maybe about 2 years old or so) versions benefited from nightly or weekly restarts. There's a chance it's stuck in an indexing loop, so just double check it's not always indexing, that can cause crashes as well. ________________________________ From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org <archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org> on behalf of Jessika Drmacich <j...@williams.edu> Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2020 9:04 AM To: Archivesspace Users Group <archivesspace_users_group@lyralists.lyrasis.org> Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] RAM for ArchivesSpace server
Thanks to all that responded. We have an issue where our AS instance slows down considerably after about a month of adding data (new collections, digital objects, a large number of accessions). After our systems person adds more RAM, the system speeds up considerably. I was wondering if we should add more RAM every three weeks. But it seems like, based on your answers, RAM might not be the source of our speed issue (but somehow connected?). Any ideas on what might slow down loading time of records and search speed?

We have 5GB for ArchivesSpace but we rarely touch even close to that except for really big jobs like generating PDFs of some of our massive finding aids (1k+ pages). We have 4 processors available but, again, with a lot of breathing room. That stated, we don't use the PUI.

Will those who maintain your own on-site instance of ArchivesSpace share the memory specifications of your server? Ours is: 16 GB ram, 11 GB assigned to AS. 6 cores (processors) My very best, Jessika Jessika Drmacich Records Manager & Digital Resources Archivist Williams College Libraries Special Collections 413-597-4725 (o) she/her/hers Please Note: Due to COVID-19 library services have changed.
