Global Configuration includes a new configuration parameter named Maximum attachments to process

To improve the performance of the Attachment Table macro, Administrators can control the maximum number of attachments to process in Global Configuration for the Attachment Table macro. Setting the limit enables administrators to reduce the load and avoid Confluence performance issues crashing. (Available since app version 8.7.0).

...

  1. Log in as a user with the Confluence administrator's Global Permission.

  2. Navigate to Manage apps > Advanced Tables for Confluence Configuration > Global Configuration

  3. The page displays the configuration options available. For more information, refer to Configuration - 8.x.

  4. Maximum attachments to process: Select the limit for processing the maximum number of attachments from the Maximum attachments to process drop-down. The default limit is 1000. The configuration also shows the approximate number of attachments available in the Confluence instance.

Administrators should be cautious when increasing the parameter limit. Generating long queries and fetching large attachments compromise Confluence's performance. It brings down Confluence with extreme CPU load and consumes massive amounts of Java heap memory.
Note

Administrators should be cautious when increasing the configuration limit, as this may lead to heavy Confluence usage and potentially result in degrading the performance of Confluence.
