Performance benchmarking report
For: ADMINS
We’re running comprehensive performance testing to compare our Long Term Support releases to see how the recent changes have affected Confluence, and to make sure we’re not introducing any performance regressions. Long Term Support releases are always a number of versions apart so changes in performance are much more visible than between smaller, feature releases.
