I've been utilizing SharePoint 2013 on-premise, and it had been functioning smoothly until recently when its performance significantly declined. Within the setup, I've configured workflows for task generation and forwarding. Incremental crawling is scheduled daily at 7 PM and typically completes within 5-10 minutes, while full crawling occurs every 4 months. Whenever a task is created or forwarded to a user, an email alert is triggered. Additionally, when an announcement is uploaded to SharePoint, email alerts are dispatched to approximately 70 recipients. The server hosts four sites, equipped with 32 GB of RAM and 2 TB of storage. Currently, the accumulated data consists of around 800 GB of documents/files, totaling approximately 80,000 documents. However, in the past couple of days, the performance has drastically deteriorated. Upon analyzing the log files, I've observed recurring warnings.

    Hi @Muhammad Akram,

    There are a few possible reasons for the performance decline in SharePoint 2013 on-premises. One possible reason is that the server is running out of memory. The context suggests that peak memory usage for the server should be around 9.2-9.4 GB, but the user's server only has 32 GB of RAM. Additionally, the log files indicate that there have been warnings related to memory, such as "something went wrong while displaying this page. error code out of memory". To address this issue, the user may need to consider upgrading the server's memory.

    Another possible reason for the performance decline is that there may be issues with the server's configuration, such as the alternate access mappings not being configured correctly. The log files indicate that there have been warnings related to alternate access mappings. To address this issue, the user may need to review and update the server's configuration.

    Finally, it is possible that the accumulated data of around 800 GB of documents/files, totaling approximately 80,000 documents, is causing the performance decline. The context suggests that scaling out (increasing the number of computers that host SharePoint Server 2013) is an option to consider if more throughput is needed.
