Performance

Introduction

  • Enabling Local Storage File Encryption will affect performance. Consider not using encryption unless absolutely required.

  • Use SSD disks for storage for running the Server. It will have significant performance boost.

  • Having a large number of CPU cores will help with scaling when there are a lot of incoming requests
     

Optimizing Mongo Database Performance

  • For large databases, MongoDB might require a lot of RAM, so ensure your server running MongoDB has enough RAM.

  • Consider using SSD storage to store MongoDB databases

  • Consider moving MongoDB to a separate server outside of the webserver node. This might improve performance.

Improving Upload Speeds

There are many factors that can affect upload speeds.

  • Your internet connection bandwidth speed

  • Where the storage is location (local to the filecloud server or on the network). Local is faster.

  • Type of storage (SSD vs Hard Disk) . SSD is fastest.

Improving File Synchronization Speeds

  • Use realtime sync for optimum sync performance

  • Offline sync of large network folders will be slow and might severely impact server performance when there are lots of users using the system.
