• Download the test-x.sql.gz file corresponding to your major version of DSpace and restore into postgres via:
  • gunzip test-7.sql.gz
  • dropdb dspace
  • createdb dspace
  • psql dspace 'create extension pgcrypto'
  • psql dspace < test-7.sql
• Download the assetstore, containing the PDFs, text, and other bitstreams, then install via:
  • mv assetstore.tar.gz /dspace/
  • cd /dspace
  • tar -xvf assetstore.tar.gz
  • rm assetstore.tar.gz
• Once the database and assetstore are installed, you can start DSpace and create the discovery index:
  • /dspace/bin/dspace index-discovery
  • The search index will consume about 5G when built 
• Note: The database has a built-in admin user: dspace@test, with password test.

To generate your own test data, here's a script that can be used to create test content:

• DSpaceObject Generator: https://github.com/cwilper/dsogen

Environment

(TBD)

Methodology

...

Measurements for each of the following were taken as described below.

Server memory use

• java: jmap -histo:live (total heap)

• node: pm2 (mem column)
• system: free -m (used column, minus buffers/cache)

Server cpu use

• java and node: ps -o %cpu -p
• system: uptime (1-minute cpu load average)

Page load time

• (Undecided)

Browser memory use

• Chrome Devtools' Memory profiler

Test Results

(TBD - goal is to test periodically prior to final 7.0 release)
