Advanced configuration

User session timeout configuration

Default session timeout is set to 35 minutes (See User session). This timeout can be configured in WEB-INF/web.xml by changing the value of the session-timeout (time is in minute):

<session-config>
    <session-timeout>35</session-timeout>
</session-config>

For developers, the timeout is defined as a build property and can be customized in filters. See web/src/main/filters/dev.properties#L20

Saxon tree model configuration

By default, Saxon uses the TinyTree model to represent XML documents in memory. This is a compact and efficient representation suitable for most applications. In the case of GN, it can be measured (running edit.xsl transformation), that linked or tinyc tree models are faster than tiny tree model. So Saxon is configured to use tinyc if available, and linked if tinyc not available.

(for saxon 9.1, https://www.saxonica.com/documentation9.1/javadoc/net/sf/saxon/FeatureKeys.html#TREE_MODEL. One can choose his tree model based on https://www.saxonica.com/documentation9.1/sourcedocs/choosingmodel.html.)

One can choose to use tiny tree model by setting "saxon.treeModel" system property to 1 at startup.
