I’ve done some findings that helped me LEARN MORE ABOUT

get the hybris startup time down to 40-
50%. This article provides several
recommendations on how to make
hybris/Tomcat to start up faster.
All
pieces of advice below are only for the

development environments because Rauf Aliev

most of them have side effects SAP commerce cloud

important for the production system.

Cronjobs: turn them off http://raufaliev.com

In order to disable cronjobs to start 




automatically on the server startup you

need to add
cronjob.timertask.loadonstartup=false
in
local.properties.
  You can also update triggers’
maxAcceptableDelay:

UPDATE
Trigger[batchmode=true];itemty
pe(code)
[unique=true];maxAcceptableDel
 ay

;Trigger;1800

Tenants: Remove
unused
Remove unused tenants in the
local.properties (like the one for junit) if
not needed
#default: installed.tenants=junit,foo,t1,t2
installed.tenants=
Heavy project (2790 custom java classes

local)
load time before changes: 857 sec
load time after changes:   679 sec (-20%)
See the configuration of my laptop
below.

Tomcat: load Host and

Engine containers in
parallel
…The number of
threads this Engine
will use to start
child Host elements
in parallel. The
special value of
«0» will result in
the value of
Runtime.getRuntime
being used.
Negative values
will result in
Runtime.getRuntime
 + value being used
unless this is less
than 1 in which case
1 thread will be
used. If not
specified, the
default value of 1
will be used.
// http://tomcat.apa
7.0-
doc/config/engine.h
However, take into account that hybris
is not thread safe during start-up and
many parallel processes may lead to
unexpected behavior. Even if it works
on local machine (e.g. QuadCore) it
might not work on a production
environment (e.g 12 or 24 cores). So
delete this configuration if you face
any problems. Also take into account
that hybris will eat more cpu with this
configuration.
config/tomcat/conf/server.xml:

Excluding Some Jars

From Scanning
First, you can remove the following jars
from
bin/platform/tomcat/lib
, because websockets seem not used in
hybris:
tomcat7-websocket.jar

websocket-api.jar

The second thing is to remove the

Servlet 3 scanning. For that, you need
to change the following key in
catalina.properties
(by default it is empty in hybris)

org.apache.catalina.startup.Co
ntextConfig.jarsToSkip=*.jar

The last change in this section is

turning off the TLD scanning for all but
a few JARs where we definetely know
there exists TLDs. In the listed jars there
are no *.tld so they can be skipped by
tomcat’s TLDConfig:

All changes explained before have

507 sec
load time after changes:

See the configuration of

If you apply all these

changes..
With all these tweaks in place except
the last one, skipJars-related, I got the
following results:

load time after

See the

I
guess that skipJars-related changes
should speed up the server a bit more,
but the “heavy project” configuration I
played around before is no longer
available for the tests. Anyway, another
configuration shows that these changes
work well.

I recommend this article on the Tomcat

these changes deeper.

Hi Rauf,

Nice article. On quick thing.

Is backoffice working for you

after adding the following
config? I had an issue with
hybris 5.7 in my dev profile
with backoffice after this
change.

org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.jarsToSkip=*.jar

Thanks

Shinu

Agree with Shinu, after first

initialization,
“org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.jarsToSkip=*.jar”
setting will make backoffice
having errors.

Great post!

Btw, like Shinu and Feng,

trying to enter to the
Backoffice I get the
following error:

“java.lang.IllegalStateException:
no tenant active. if you do
not want to use tenants, call
Registry.activateMasterTenant()
to assure the Master tenant
is active.”

Storefront and hAC work

fine.

Any workaround or
suggestion? I’m using hybris
commerce v6.5.0.3
 Thanks!
