What is the best way to manage multiple projects (12) across 3 teams/backlogs?

[kevin yanders]

Hello!  I am a SM with some Jira experience but previously had an administrator who took care of setting up our environments.  I now have 3 teams working in 3 backlogs across approx. 12 projects for a large company.  We have members who do not like the current set up and would like to have better visibility into each project independently.  They suggested a separate board for each project but we all can agree that would be messy in many ways.  Looking for more potential ways to solve this dilemma than I currently have the Jira knowledge to do so with and have not found a thread on this particular topic.  Thanks!

It's extremely slow after a cache clear event. My profiling show it's proportional to the number of field configs * number of fields, and also number of projects * number of roles, as there will be a db query for (N projects * M roles).

After you have loaded the dialog once, it should then be much faster . Is it?

yah, it is fast once the dialog loaded once,

any suggestion, how to over come this?

• Get atlassian to implement com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.layout.field.AbstractFieldLayoutManager#loadFieldLayout in a more efficient manner
• Reduce the number of field configs
• Reduce number of projects/role - probably too difficult
• Try to find people who call: com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.FieldManager#refresh. The comment notes this: "If you add any calls to this method in JIRA I will hunt you down and subject you to a Spanish inquisition." I wish they would. Greenhopper is a culprit here.

And btw you're lucky, it takes around 90 seconds for that dialog to popup after the caches have been cleared on my instance...

How many projects and issue types do you have? It is directly dependent on that.

[RambanamP]

projects will be around 360 and issue types will be around 50

butwith same projects and isuuetypes test instance created and we are not seeing this issue

Hey there, Rambanam.

Perhaps you can try to check on the following documentation to narrow down the possibilities that could cause the performance degradation in your instance

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/Crashes+and+Performance+Issues+Troubleshooting

Since there are many possibilities, take time to look into one by one and hopefully, you are able to find the reason behind this.

Warm regards,
