Liferay DXP 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 massive concurrent user loads — all within a strict 2-second response target
• Liferay Objects delivering near-static performance speeds while powering fully dynamic, data-driven applications — making them the recommended default for modern DXP builds
• Document management that stays fast under serious enterprise load, across browsing, downloading, and uploading
• Authentication performance with both native and third-party identity providers — the difference between the two will surprise you

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