Here's a starting page for performance tuning. Make sure to look at Postgres there. https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/HowToPerformanceTuneForDspace Of course, this is not specific to DSpace, so you'll probably get more information on Tomcat pages and mailing lists. Also there's no panacea for DSpace memory issues and no generic optimal setting. Monitoring is essential for proper performance tuning, so you might want to watch memory usage in Tomcat over a longer time period to better understand its requirements in your particular usage scenario. I suggest you look at http://www.lambdaprobe.org/ but there are quite a few tools that can do this. That all said, I don't think you need to worry too much with just several thousand items in your repository. But of course it's important to learn it if your repository will grow to hundreds of thousands.
