UPDATE: The is only a partly truth, unfortunately - its more the restart than the reindex that improved response times...
UDATE 2: After upgrading the Refined add-on and some clean up - this was resolved. Everything points to a memory leaking add-on.
Since upgrading to Confluence 7, my Confluence has been really slow.
And a lot of GC warning about it taking longer than 2000 ms...
So, I eventually stopped confluence, deleted the index and journal on disk according to
and the result on response time was "craaazy"....
