Issue

When viewing Job Results that are large, the Security Analytics user interface decreases in performance.

Cause

This issue occurs because when Job Results are viewed in the Security Analytics UI, the Security Analytics server fetched the entire result from the MongoDB database before presenting the first page in the user interface.

When the results are large enough, the server will run out of memory and may result in a Loading screen that never completes and the user interface slowing down.

When the server runs out of memory, an error message similar to the example below can be found in the logs.
