From 1addcd9245db13a38099dcb370fa6c50a4a82e94 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle M Hall Date: Mon, 9 Aug 2021 13:46:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 28833: Speed up holds queue builder via parallel processing The holds queue builder can take a very long time to run on systems with many holds. For example, a partner with 124,784 unfilled ( not found ) holds, is taking about 64 minutes to run. If we run that same number of holds in 5 parallel chunks ( splitting the number of records as evenly as possible, but *not* taking into account the holds per bib ), it takes 21.5 minutes. If we use 10 loops, it takes less then 14 minutes. Test Plan: 0) Install the Perl library Parallel::ForkManager 1) Generate a huge number of holds ( a few thousand at the minimum ) 2) Run the holds queue builder, use the `time` utility to track how much time it took to run 3) Set HoldsQueueParallelLoopsCount to 10 4) Repeat step 2, note the improvement in speed 5) Experiment with other values for HoldsQueueParallelLoopsCount 6) prove t/db_dependent/HoldsQueue.t --- C4/HoldsQueue.pm | 53 ++++++++++++++----- .../data/mysql/atomicupdate/bug_28833.perl | 9 ++++ installer/data/mysql/mandatory/sysprefs.sql | 1 + .../admin/preferences/circulation.pref | 5 ++ misc/cronjobs/holds/build_holds_queue.pl | 3 +- 5 files changed, 57 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) create mode 100644 installer/data/mysql/atomicupdate/bug_28833.perl diff --git a/C4/HoldsQueue.pm b/C4/HoldsQueue.pm index 052c095121c..3f3f3d22f9a 100644 --- a/C4/HoldsQueue.pm +++ b/C4/HoldsQueue.pm @@ -170,6 +170,7 @@ Top level function that turns reserves into tmp_holdsqueue and hold_fill_targets sub CreateQueue { my $params = shift;
