[Geoserver-users] Help with tuning performances

Hello!

Hope anybody can help in improving the response time for a WMS working on a PostGIS table with 1 million point spread around Italy. The viewer use leaflet and consumes the layer as WMS. The system was developer to display over a website but now I need to display over a 55 inch touch screen completely offline. I setup a Virtualbox machine and use that as a local server. The virtual machine uses 8Gb of the total 16GB, the processor is an i7.

Each point of the layer has the same symbol generated from an image icon. The layer is displayed for layers greater than 12 and the first tile load takes 12 to 15 seconds, then it gets quicker to represent tiles. The points are on a PostGIS layer, spatial index built.
The geometry of the original table is 4326, the display is over OSM.

I tried to follow some of the hints for improving the performance of the server, and it is better than the beginning, but I think there is still room for improvements.

Using precaching might become complicated because the map might request WMS with some filter expression during the requests on that layer.

Any help, idea or suggestion is welcome.

Cheers.

Simone
