Performance problems with large data volumes

Hi,

So I have what you might want to consider a large set of data.

We have about 25k records in our index, and the disk space is taking up
around 2.5 gb, spread across a little more than 4000 indices. Currently
our master node is set for 6gb of ram. We're seeing that after loading
this data the JVM will eventually crash, sometimes in as little as 5
minutes.

Is this not enough horse power for this data set?

What could be tuned to resolve this?

Hi,
I don't think 24k documents are large data.
What is strange for me is "4000 indices".
This is strange .. how many indices do you need ?

On my cluster i have : Nodes: 8 Indices: 89 Shards: 2070 Data: 4.87 TB

When you are running OOM ? Example query(ies) ? How my nodes ? Some more
info please :slight_smile:

Also, 6GB Heap is not too much, but that depends on your use case

Georgi,

Thanks for the quick reply!

I have 4k indices. We're creating an index per tenant. In this
environment we've created 4k tenants.

We're running out of memory just letting the loading of records run.

So you run OOM when you index data ?
If so :
How do you index the data ?
Are you using BulkRequest ?
Which programming language are you using ?
Are you using multiple threads to index ?

If you are using Bulk request , you should limit the size of the bulk.
You can also tune the bulk request pool in ES.

In general, you are very brief in describing you problem :slight_smile:

Georgi,

I'm indexing the data through regular index request via java

final IndexResponse response = esClient.client().prepareIndex(indexName,
type)
.setSource(json).setRefresh(true).execute().actionGet();

json in this case is a byte with the json data in it.

The requests come in via multiple HTTP requests, but I'm not leveraging any
specific multithreading within the ES client. I hope this helps, I'm not
100% sure what information would help identify.

And actually now that I'm looking at it again - I wanted to ask why I need
to use setRefresh(true)?

In my case, we were not seeing index data updated quick enough upon
indexing a record. setting refresh = true was doing it for us. If there's
a way to avoid it, that might help me here?

Ok .. so it is Java

  1. You are not doing this right .
  2. You should use BulkRequest or better BulkProcessor class
  3. Do NOT do setRefresh ! This way you are forcing ES to do the real
    indexing which will load the cluster a LOT
  4. Set the refresh interval of your index to something line 30s or 60s

Here is a snippet of code using BulkProcessor (it will not run , because i
removed some parts but it will give u an idea)

public class IndexFoo {
private Connection connection = null;

public Client client;
Integer bulkSize = 1000;
private CommandLine cmd;
//BulkRequestBuilder bulkRequest;
BulkProcessor bulkRequest;
private String index;
Set hosts = new HashSet();

private int threads = 5;

public IndexFoo(CommandLine cmd) throws SQLException, ParseException {
this.cmd = cmd;
this.index = cmd.getOptionValue("index");
if (cmd.hasOption("b")) {
this.bulkSize = Integer.valueOf(cmd.getOptionValue("b"));
}
if (cmd.hasOption("t")) {
this.threads = Integer.valueOf(cmd.getOptionValue("t"));
}
if (cmd.hasOption("h")) {
String hosts = cmd.getOptionValue("h").split(",");
for (String host : hosts) {
this.hosts.add(host);
}
}

this.connectES();

this.bulkRequest = this.getBulkProcessor();
}

private void processData(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException {
while (rs.next()) {
//index
bulkRequest.add(client.prepareIndex(myIndex, "mytype",
id.toString()).setSource(mySource).request());

}//while
this.bulkRequest.close();
System.out.println("Indexing done");

}

private BulkProcessor getBulkProcessor(){
return BulkProcessor.builder(client, new BulkProcessor.Listener() {
@Override
public void beforeBulk(long executionId, BulkRequest request) {
//System.out.println("Executing bulk #"+executionId+"
"+request.numberOfActions());
}
@Override
public void afterBulk(long executionId, BulkRequest request, Throwable
failure) {
}
@Override
public void afterBulk(long executionId, BulkRequest request, BulkResponse
response) {
System.out.println("Bulk #"+executionId+"/"+request.numberOfActions()+"
executed in "+response.getTook().secondsFrac()+" sec.");
if (response.hasFailures()) {
for (BulkItemResponse bulkItemResponse : response.getItems()) {
if (bulkItemResponse.isFailed()){
System.err.println("Failure message : "+
bulkItemResponse.getFailureMessage());
}
}
System.exit(-1);
}
}
}).setConcurrentRequests(this.threads
).setBulkActions(this.bulkSize).build();
}

}

Hi,

I doubt the issue is that I'm not using bulk requests. My requests come in
one at a time, not in bulk. If you can explain why bulk is required that
would help.

I can believe that the refresh is causing the issue. I would prefer to
test that one by itself. How do I configure the refresh interval on the
index?

We're running out of memory just letting the loading of records run.

This is strange .. how many indices do you need ?

On my cluster i have : Nodes: 8 Indices: 89 Shards: 2070 Data: 4.87 TB

When you are running OOM ? Example query(ies) ? How my nodes ? Some
more info please :slight_smile:

Also, 6GB Heap is not too much, but that depends on your use case

Hi,

So I have what you might want to consider a large set of data.

We have about 25k records in our index, and the disk space is taking
up around 2.5 gb, spread across a little more than 4000 indices. Currently
our master node is set for 6gb of ram. We're seeing that after loading
this data the JVM will eventually crash, sometimes in as little as 5
minutes.

Is this not enough horse power for this data set?

What could be tuned to resolve this?

Here is how to set refresh interval:

When you force refresh after every document, you are putting unnecessary
load to ES.

Indexing single document in a single call is completely fine, but is also
very slow and inefficient :slight_smile:
This way you are also utilizing the available indexing threads in ES. You
can read the documentation about this here :

If you use bulk request , you can index (tens)thousands of docs per second,
depending on your hardware.

With BulkProcessor class you can set how many threads will run, how may
document will be sent in one bulk.. etc.
It is much more efficient then indexing single document.

Hi,

I doubt the issue is that I'm not using bulk requests. My requests come
in one at a time, not in bulk. If you can explain why bulk is required
that would help.

I can believe that the refresh is causing the issue. I would prefer to
test that one by itself. How do I configure the refresh interval on the
index?

Ok .. so it is Java

  1. You are not doing this right .
  2. You should use BulkRequest or better BulkProcessor class
  3. Do NOT do setRefresh ! This way you are forcing ES to do the real
    indexing which will load the cluster a LOT
  4. Set the refresh interval of your index to something line 30s or 60s

Here is a snippet of code using BulkProcessor (it will not run , because
i removed some parts but it will give u an idea)

public class IndexFoo {
private Connection connection = null;

public Client client;
Integer bulkSize = 1000;
private CommandLine cmd;
//BulkRequestBuilder bulkRequest;
BulkProcessor bulkRequest;
private String index;
Set hosts = new HashSet();

private int threads = 5;

public IndexFoo(CommandLine cmd) throws SQLException, ParseException {
this.cmd = cmd;
this.index = cmd.getOptionValue("index");
if (cmd.hasOption("b")) {
this.bulkSize = Integer.valueOf(cmd.getOptionValue("b"));
}
if (cmd.hasOption("t")) {
this.threads = Integer.valueOf(cmd.getOptionValue("t"));
}
if (cmd.hasOption("h")) {
String hosts = cmd.getOptionValue("h").split(",");
for (String host : hosts) {
this.hosts.add(host);
}
}

this.connectES();

this.bulkRequest = this.getBulkProcessor();
}

private void processData(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException {
while (rs.next()) {
//index
bulkRequest.add(client.prepareIndex(myIndex, "mytype",
id.toString()).setSource(mySource).request());

}//while
this.bulkRequest.close();
System.out.println("Indexing done");

}

private BulkProcessor getBulkProcessor(){
return BulkProcessor.builder(client, new BulkProcessor.Listener() {
@Override
public void beforeBulk(long executionId, BulkRequest request) {
//System.out.println("Executing bulk #"+executionId+"
"+request.numberOfActions());
}
@Override
public void afterBulk(long executionId, BulkRequest request, Throwable
failure) {
}
@Override
public void afterBulk(long executionId, BulkRequest request, BulkResponse
response) {
System.out.println("Bulk #"+executionId+"/"+request.numberOfActions()+"
executed in "+response.getTook().secondsFrac()+" sec.");
if (response.hasFailures()) {
for (BulkItemResponse bulkItemResponse : response.getItems()) {
if (bulkItemResponse.isFailed()){
System.err.println("Failure message : "+ bulkItemResponse.
getFailureMessage());
}
}
System.exit(-1);
}
}
}).setConcurrentRequests(this.threads ).setBulkActions(this.
bulkSize).build();
}

}

And actually now that I'm looking at it again - I wanted to ask why I
need to use setRefresh(true)?

In my case, we were not seeing index data updated quick enough upon
indexing a record. setting refresh = true was doing it for us. If there's
a way to avoid it, that might help me here?

Georgi,

I'm indexing the data through regular index request via java

final IndexResponse response = esClient.client().prepareIndex(indexName,
type)
.setSource(json).setRefresh(tr
ue).execute().actionGet();

json in this case is a byte with the json data in it.

The requests come in via multiple HTTP requests, but I'm not leveraging
any specific multithreading within the ES client. I hope this helps, I'm
not 100% sure what information would help identify.

So you run OOM when you index data ?
If so :
How do you index the data ?
Are you using BulkRequest ?
Which programming language are you using ?
Are you using multiple threads to index ?

If you are using Bulk request , you should limit the size of the bulk.
You can also tune the bulk request pool in ES.

In general, you are very brief in describing you problem :slight_smile:

2014-11-04 17:05 GMT+01:00 John D. Ament john.d...@gmail.com:

Georgi,

Thanks for the quick reply!

I have 4k indices. We're creating an index per tenant. In this
environment we've created 4k tenants.

We're running out of memory just letting the loading of records run.
