Hi, 
I work as a Consultant in sweden for a big Magnolia customer stationary in 
Stockholm. 

We have experience som performance issues with our installation of Magnolia 
4.4.2 (bundled with Jackrabbit 1.6.2) under certain load factors. 
Under normal load on the website we have no problem with our load balanced 
magnolia instances, but when we get some extra load (we temporary attract more 
customers to the site by sending out newsletter) we experience some major 
performance issues. 
The page that we send the customers to is only a "normal" page with no extra 
logic/integrations on so Magnolia should be able to handle the request very 
fast. 
When we have approx. 200 concurrent requests to the page we get a mean response 
time on 8-10 seconds
For 500 concurrent requests we have a mean response time on 18-20 seconds

When we pinpoint the location of the bottleneck (by making stack dump and see 
what all the threads are waiting on) we see that there is are a lot of 
synchronization going on in order to retrieve the content node/properties in 
the magnolia codebase and also in the Jackrabbit codebase. 

Questions:

* Are there someone else that has experience some similar performance issues 
and can recommend a solution and/or where we can read more about this? 

* Are there some settings in Magnolia or Jackrabbit that can speed this thing 
up or which of the synchronization, we do not care in these case if there are 
any dirty read on the content node/properties?

* Is this a known problem in Magnolia 4.4.2 or in general with the Magnolia 
4.x.x codebase ?

* Is this a known problem in Jackrabbit 1.6.2 or the  Jackrabbit 1.x.x codebase?

* We read about the Jackrabbit issues noted here, 
http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/releases/4-4-9.html, and have tried to 
upgrade to Magnolia 4.4.9-jr24 (Jackrabbit 2.4.2) but we experience the same 
performance problem or even WORSE performance. 
Is this a known problem in Magnolia 4.4.9-jr24 (Jackrabbit 2.4.2)?

Our installation:
* 2 x  Magnolia 4.4.2 (bundled with Jackrabbit 1.6.2)
* Loadbalancer in front with sticky on ip (-> session)
* db2 database backend for content store
