As minimum requirements, we recommend 2 GB of RAM for the Web App Search docker. Some search settings (SEARCH_FETCH_DELAY_BETWEEN_PAGES, SEARCH_FETCH_ITEM_PER_PAGE, SEARCH_MAX_FILE_SIZE) are interrelated and must be edited consequently so as to correctly manage available RAM and avoid Search Docker RAM overload. An Out Of Memory issue on the docker can lead to Web App slow-down or complete unresponsiveness.
As shown in the above table for System Settings, default search index parameters will load 25 objects per page every 1000 Milliseconds. Each object of the page will be loaded into RAM while indexing. With a default maximum file size of 20,917,520 Bytes (20 Mb), this means there is a maximum potential RAM load of (25 objects * 20 Mb) 500 Mb occupied by a search index. This will leave ample space for adequate search performance during indexing without substantially affecting the total total time period required to fully index the specific environment.
We highly recommend that any combinations of these parameters not exceed half of the allocated RAM for the search docker. For safe measure we have defined them to occupy 25% of recommended RAM. If you wish to adjust any of these three parameters, especially “SEARCH_MAX_FILE_SIZE’, RAM for the Search docker may need to be adjusted correspondingly.
Use this formula to ensure safe use of search settings:
(SEARCH_FETCH_DELAY_BETWEEN_PAGES * SEARCH_FETCH_ITEM_PER_PAGE * SEARCH_MAX_FILE_SIZE) <= (0.5 * Allocated Search docker RAM)
