Change is required. Atlassian engineer's blog

  Today after updating browser, fortunately, my Github account start to use the dark mode, so I am so happy.  Long time ago it was a needy feature to me.  On-Prem: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-63150 Cloud:  https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-63150   So possible solutions, you can find below. Marketplace apps: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?query=dark%20mode Chrome app: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/night-mode-for-jira/nlgcogdbamhmdbpaabmpklojolokodaa?hl=en https://github.com/aalvarado/JiraDarkTheme  via Stylus https://darkreader.org/   And last option is  chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark  , which is my favourite one.  Only one problem during browser upgrade of browser sometimes configs of dark mode can be changed. Fortunately, we can start to see more and more services start to use dark mode.  I hope soon Atlassian products will support and the community will be happy with that small fea...

Also, it's continue of  previous article . One of the instances every night do import files into the  “Insight” app , those asset management includes too many assets around 1 mln, as it’s daily import history of objects can grow as well. Let’s focus only on importing procedure, we had 1 dedicated instance with 32GB heap for jdk8u282-b08 and G1GC. During import find out the next behaviour: # cat atlassian-jira-gc.0.current| grep -i "full" 2021-03-30T21:13:19.462+0300: 934.828: [Full GC (Allocation Failure)  31309M->23165M(32768M), 58.7721842 secs ] 2021-03-30T21:14:31.997+0300: 1007.363: [Full GC (Allocatio...

  Hi!  Gonchik is in touch. Today I would like to get a little bit of help from you related SQL indexes on your Jira installation (Data Center, Server edition does not matter).    I would like to share a story about  PostgreSQL  and  Jira 8.13.3  ( JSD 4.13.3 )  release.  In that post I will be happy if you answer and comment about your instance indexes, as those info can help to improve the existing situation of heavy indexes.  Typically, it starts from improvement of configuration (e.g. using  https://postgresqltuner.pl/ ),  then query analyzing, adding indexes, after removing as heavy one (shortly  https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Index_Maintenance ) :)    I use like this query in PostgreSQL: SELECT s.schemaname,        s.relname AS tablename,        s.indexrelname AS indexname,        pg_size_pretty(p...
