KOHA technical upgrade question
Dear List, In the Fundamental Scientific Library, we use Koha version 25.05.03.000, on the Xeon® Processors E3-1240 v6, RAM 32GB, HDD 1+1TB. Also, active circulation is functioning. Our catalog consists of 536,000 records with ca. 900,000 items. Our Koha is operating slowly, and we think that the technical parameters of our server are not enough for satisfactory performance. Can anybody recommend what server to use? Thanks, Erlanda

I would say that's a good enough box. Did you enable Plack? Without Plack, Koha is not really useable. And/Or: are you maybe "attacked" by AI crawler bots? We had a lot of problems with those recently (as they do not honor robots.txt or any sane web crawler behaviour). See for example: * https://openfifth.co.uk/fighting-the-ai-bots/ * https://www.koha-support.eu/using-anubis-with-koha/ Greetings, domm -- Thomas Klausner domm https://domm.plix.at Just another ( Perl | Postgres | Koha | Bicycle | Food | Photo | Vinyl ) Hacker Installing DarkPAN modules via gitlab [ 2025-09-07 15:00 > https://domm.plix.at/perl/2025_09_install_darkpan_gitlab.html ] Today we saw an European pond turtle while taking a stroll through Lobau.
