I have one java based application which is having huge line of source code(~1m).Now I am using jenkins with sonar-runner-2.4 to run analysis with code coverage and test cases count.I have upgraded sonarqube server from 5.4 to 6.3.1.Before upgrade this job took 9hrs to complete the whole analysis (still it is very much long time but fine) but after upgrade to sonarqube-6.3.1 same job taking 13hrs to complete the same analysis.
How do I improve analysis time at least my earlier time 9hr ?
EDIT
Here is my JAVA_OPTS for sonarqube-6.3.1 instance
sonar.web.javaOpts=-Xmx6G -Xms2G -XX:MaxPermSize=1G -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
