Catalog synchronization is too slow, although the sync is getting completed

[former_member780897]

I am running catalog synchronization with products, category etc. However, I can see too many logs with the following info:

INFO [SyncWorker<000000S8 2 of 8>] [AbstractItemCopyContext] cannot create item due to pending attributes (..nonmandotory attributes) INFO [SyncWorker<000000S8 3 of 8>] [AbstractItemCopyContext] cannot create item due to pending attributes (..nonmandotory attributes)

The sync is successful, but takes a lot of time to complete. The reason for this log is in ItemCreator.java: if (cannotCreate) { throw new ItemCopyCreator.MissingInitialAttributes("cannot create item due to pending attributes (values " + this.getCopyContext().valuesToString(initialValues) + ")", this._sourceItem); }

This flag is true for all mandatory fields as per my understanding, hence would be called for baseproduct attribute also(logged when base product is picked up). Any inputs on how to avoid this scenario? Can this be the reason for slow sync? Query time looks normal as per jdbc logs

Hello Basil,

Did you find any solution of this? I am facing the same issue after Hybris upgrade to version 2005.

Thanks,

Hi Nirmal,

I was facing this issue as my variant products were getting synced before the base products were picked up. Changes I did:

1. Created a composite cronjob, with two sync jobs, first one that synchronizes the base products, followed by second one that syncs variant products (Added searchrestrictions corresponding to first and second jobs to make sure only base alone is synced first followed by variants).

2. Configured the synchronization to run in legacy mode using synchronization.legacy.mode=true (I am using only products catalog and no content catalogs and my project setup runs fine with legacy mode). Please check feasibility of using legacy mode in your project.

With these two changes my sync performance improved significantly from 1 items/sec to around 80 items/sec
