Orbeon performance/scalability issues - suggestions?

Vivek Agarwal
We are running Orbeon PE v3.8, and in our very basic usage/load testing, we
are seeing very significant performance and scalability issues. With a
handful of concurrent users (~5-10) and a simple form with a couple of text
fields, we start seeing significant performance issues. Performance degrades
quickly (20+ seconds for basic form loads/saves), and memory/CPU usage
spikes tremendously. We have performed some basic tweaks based on the wiki
tuning notes, but nothing has had any big bang effect. I am seriously
concerned whether Orbeon Forms can come close to handling our desired user
load levels (100s of users).

Broadly speaking (and I have seen some posts from folks asking the same kind
of questions) - on a JBoss server running Orbeon Forms, with 1.5GB of heap
space, on a box with a decent quad-core processor and 4GB RAM, how many
concurrent users should we be able to support with an acceptable response
time of ~2-4seconds? Is this 5 users? Is this tens of users? Is this 100+
users?

Thanks for any advice and experience in setting up Orbeon in a
high-throughput site.

Regards, Vivek.
