Artifact Download Extremely Slow

Hi,

We've just upgraded from Archiva 1.0.2 to 1.1.2 and since restarting
Archiva, downloading artifacts is extremely low - several minutes to
download an artifact of only 1 or 2 KB.

If I browse the repository in a web browser (not through Archiva's GUI
but through the /repository directories) I noticed something
interesting.  Directory listings and some files are served instantly,
yet others seem to take minutes (3-4 on average).  I noticed that .md5
and .sha1 files are instant, whereas .pom, .jar and maven-metadata.xml
are all extremely slow.  I assume the problem is not the server on which
archiva is running because some files are served within milliseconds.

Has anyone encountered this problem, or otherwise know how to debug/fix
it?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Doron

I suppose it could be related to the http/https difference (I hadn't
noticed that).  I never set up any certificates when I installed Archiva
1.0.2 so I doubt I lost any in the upgrade (unless certificates are
created automatically somehow).  I just defined the remote repository,
added the proxy connector and it seemed to work.  It's true that this
was the only remote repository I had defined with https, so perhaps this
explains why it didn't work and all the other remote repositories were
fine.  In my analysis I suspected that it might be because it was a
maven 1 repository, but your hypothesis sounds more feasible.

Hi Brett,

I investigated it further and found that the problem was related to the
proxy connector towards the Maven 1 repository on java.net.  I
previously had this configured to
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/ and it appeared
to work correctly.  After poking around further, I found that this might
be the wrong URL (even though it worked fine up until upgrading to
Archiva 1.1.2).  By changing the URL in the remote repository definition
in Archiva to http://download.java.net/maven/1/, my issue has been
resolved.  I'm not sure which is the "right" URL for this repository or
why Archiva couldn't connect to the other URL (it appears to be valid in
a web browser).

Regards,
Doron

Is it possible it is trying to reach a remote server that is configured
to proxy that is very slow?
