Note 1: When using HSQLDB for example, it's important to NOT cache
prepared statements because HSQLDB
Prepared Statements (PS) contain the schema on which they were
initially created and thus when switching
schema if the same PS is reused it'll execute on the wrong schema!
Since HSQLDB does internally cache
prepared statement there's no performance loss. see

I can only give you a personal feedback : I have a wiki (in production) with Tomcat 6 + MySql 5.1, with db attachments. The wiki has around 15000 pages now, and 1,6Go of attachments content in db (including all versions of course). I plan to move to filesystem attachments, because during the course and upgrades (this wiki started several years ago with version 0.9), some attachments got corrupted for any reason, and it might be easier to avoid/detect/repair with filesystem based attachments than db. Apart from that, it works pretty well. I don't think servlet container will have a big impact on the way big attachments are managed, apart from possible limitations specific to each container if they exist. The link I provided gives you what is supported by xwiki, and with what it has been tested, but we can't decide for you what container or rdbms to choose in the end :-) BR, Jeremie 2013/3/20 Hirji Patel hirji.pa...@akt-uk.com Thanks, Which Servlet Container should I be using?

Re: [xwiki-users] GlassFish + MySQL + Xwiki
Hi, Just installed Tomcat + Xwiki using link below, but it does not tell me to install MySQL? Its telling me to install Nginx, should I be doing this? http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationTomcat#H InstallationSteps This is what I have done so far... Windows 2008 server. Created folder in c:\Tomcat_Home (copied files from Zip) Created folder Xwiki C:\Tomcat_Home\webapps\xwiki (copied files from War file) What's Next.. to get my xwiki going? Install Mysql?

Xwiki will be in production with large files. 15000 Pages... that's a lot of pages... ours will be much less then that. So Tomcat sounds good, but dot sure what you mean by filesystem attachments? How does that work or can that be done at later stage with Tomcat + MySQL?

If you go with Tomcat, make sure you set it to use UTF8 encoding, since the default configuration of Tomcat is not UTF8. The standalone jetty+hsqldb is not good in production/large wikis because it uses an in memory hsqldb database, meaning that all your database is loaded at startup into your RAM memory.
