# Performance tips
|
|
|
|
The application runs regular maintenance and DB cleanup tasks. If these tasks fail, you might encounter performance issues.
|
|
|
|
Most performance issues are caused by a big database or large log files. Enabling unnecessary plugins will also lead to performance degradation.
|
|
|
|
You can always check the size of your database and database tables under the Maintenance page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> For around 100 devices the database should be approximately `50MB` and none of the entries (rows) should exceed the value of `10 000` on a healthy system. These numbers will depend on your network activity and settings.
|
|
|
|
## Maintenance plugins
|
|
|
|
There are 2 plugins responsible for maintaining the overal health of the application. One is responsible for the database cleanup and one for other tasks, such as log cleanup.
|
|
|
|
### DB Cleanup (DBCLNP)
|
|
|
|
The database cleanup plugin. Check details and related setting in the [DB Cleanup plugin docs](/front/plugins/db_cleanup/README.md). Make sure the plugin is not failing by checking the logs. Try changing the schedule `DBCLNP_RUN_SCHD` and the timeout `DBCLNP_RUN_TIMEOUT` (increase) if the plugin is failing to execute.
|
|
|
|
### Maintenance (MAINT)
|
|
|
|
The maintenance plugin. Check details and related setting in the [Maintenance plugin docs](/front/plugins/maintenance/README.md). Make sure the plugin is not failing by checking the logs. Try changing the schedule `MAINT_RUN_SCHD` and the timeout `MAINT_RUN_TIMEOUT` (increase) if the plugin is failing to execute.
|
|
|
|
## Scan frequency and coverage
|
|
|
|
The more often you scan the networks the more resources, traffic and DB read/write cycles are executed. Especially on busy networks and lower end hardware, consider increasing scan intervals (`<PLUGIN>_RUN_SCHD`) and timeouts (`<PLUGIN>_RUN_TIMEOUT`).
|
|
|
|
Also consider decreasing the scanned subnet, e.g. from `/16` to `/24` if need be.
