Search Service 1.4.2.1 - Out Of Memory

[mathiasen]

Hi,

I am currently trying to migrate our Alfresco 5.2 CE to Alfresco 6.2 CE, the mirgration requires a full solr reindex. During the reindex process the search service fails with a OOM exception, I have tried to adjust the memory settings, increase heap space, but still it fails, just takes a little more time before it fails.

According to this issue https://github.com/Alfresco/SearchServices/issues/233 this could be related to the use of secondary assocs on folders which we use. Is there anything we can do as a workaround  ? Any idea of when this issue will be fixed ?

The following versions is used, running in a AWS EKS environment

• alfresco-content-repository-community:6.2.0-ga
• alfresco-search-services:1.4.2.1

Thanks

Can you perform a test disabling the CascadeTracker?

We're currently investigating a problem related with this feature.

Setting alfresco.cascade.tracker.enabled=false solves the problem, no memory issues.

Any idea of a time frame for a fix ?

Thanks for testing that.

We'll release 1.4.3 version with the patch in the next days.

@angelborroy  have just performed a full re-index of my repository with version 1.4.3 and it just works fine, no OOM problems.

Thanks.
