Possibility to sort by priority and ranks together for Backlog in boards and possibility change rank

[Oksana Baier]

Hi!
I try to find possibility for Backlog in boards

We have backlog and list of tasks is sorted by rank. We can change drag and drop tasks and change ranks for it

But we need sort by priority and ranks together
And have a possibility toi change ranks too

Can we made it?

Hi @Simon Logan, 

you're right, GC should not be that often. Can you please share some information about the server hosting Jira, specifically the amount of RAM ?

It would be useful to also have a look at what is set for the JVM memory settings in <jira_install_dir>/bin/setenv.sh at the JVM_MINIMUM_MEMORY and JVM_MAXIMUM_MEMORY setting.

You can also have a look at the Atlassian documentation on JVM settings here.

Let me know if this helps,

Hi Alexis,

Thanks for the response.

JVM_MINIMUM_MEMORY="384m"
JVM_MAXIMUM_MEMORY="2048m"

free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available

Does that give you what you need?

Thanks,

Simon

Hi @Simon Logan, 

I have a similarly sized server and the following settings are working fine for me:

JVM_MINIMUM_MEMORY="384m"

JVM_MAXIMUM_MEMORY="1024m"

How big is your Jira instance in terms of number of users, projects, issues ... ? 

[Simon Logan]

Hi @Alexis Robert, 

We've got around 700 active users, around 200 projects and about 50,000 issues.

@Simon Logan I can see this is a fairly big instance, I'd suggest having a look at this page that will provide some pointers on how to size your server memory and JVM.

Based on Atlassian recommandations, I'd suggest bumping your memory from 4GB to 8GB at least and setting the heap size to 4GB.

Let me know if this helps,

Thanks @Alexis Robert will do

Hi,

if you go for 4GB (espessaly 6+GB) you should switch also from paralelgc to g1gc. (set-gc-params.sh/bat).
