Liferay DPX Performance – Benchmark Study 2026

Benchmark Study of Liferay DXP

How Far Can Liferay DXP Scale? Now You Have the Numbers.

Planning a Liferay DXP deployment means making sizing decisions with real consequences. This benchmark study by the Liferay Engineering team gives IT architects and decision-makers the hard data they need to plan production environments with confidence.

Tested on a single-node configuration running Liferay DXP 2026.Q1, the study covers:

• Page rendering at up to 28,000 concurrent users within a 2-second response target
• Liferay Objects sustaining ~26,000 concurrent users with near-static performance, making them the recommended default for modern, data-driven applications
• Document management remaining sub-second at the 95th percentile up to 14,000 concurrent users
• Authentication performance with both native and third-party identity providers, including a 55x concurrency improvement with a dedicated IdP

Use these benchmarks as a credible starting point for capacity planning, infrastructure sizing, and architectural decisions.
