SonarQube scans taking long time to complete .NET projects analysis

[anon35261157]

• which versions are you using (SonarQube, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension)
  9.9 LTS Enterprise

• how is SonarQube deployed: zip, Docker, Helm
  Azure App Service PremiumV3 (P3v3)
  

  

• what are you trying to achieve
  Make our analysis faster

I am taking over the SonarQube at our company and want to start with trying to understand how can we make out analysis faster? We have a build pipelines in the Azure DevOps running on our own build agents.

Some additional information from debug logs

SonarQube stats

Hi,

You’ve listed that your SonarQube server is deployed on a ‘premium’ node. How about your build agent? The first answer to this is always to give the build agent more power. The second answer is to look at what’s being analyzed. Are there any generated files or libraries you can exclude?

Also, your title says this is a .NET project, but your analysis log snippet indicates that you’re using the SonarScanner CLI. For a .NET project, you should be using the SonarScanner for .NET. I don’t expect that to necessarily give you faster results, but it will likely give you more accurate results.

And finally, if you have any C / C++ in your project, you can make that part of the analysis, at least, multi-threaded

 
HTH,

Hi @ganncamp,

Thanks for the reply. We are using Azure DevOps pipelines to run the scans as a part of the CI/CD integration. These logs are from the Azure DevOps pipeline run.

We will look into the information provided. Thanks a lot.

BR,
