The software DSpace relies on does not come out of the box optimized for large repositories. Here are some tips to make it all run faster.

Review the number of DSpace webapps you have installed in Tomcat

By default, DSpace includes a number of web applications which all interact with the underlying DSpace data model. The DSpace web applications include: XMLUI, JSPUI, OAI, RDF, REST, SOLR, SWORD, and SWORDv2. The only required web application is SOLR as it is utilized by several of the other web applications (XMLUI, JSPUI and OAI). See the Installing DSpace documentation for more information about each of these web applications.

Any of the other web applications can be removed from your Tomcat, if you have no plans to utilize that functionality. The fewer web applications you are running, the less memory you will require, as each of these applications will be allocated memory when started up by Tomcat.
