we have a 7.2.8 installation and we have to upgrade to 7.5 (min. 7.4.3).
Our main challenge is the size of the project (database is > 4GB, XML Cache >60MB) and we are experiencing continuous high cpu load (>35%) (dedicated server should have enough power with 6 cores, 32GB Ram, SSD).
Whats the best way to make a successfull upgrade (we already tried to move on the 7.3, but the database got corrupted).
should we try:
7.3
7.3.8
7.4
7.4.3
(7.5.beta2)
should we delete the XML cache on every upgrade by hand?
we are a bit stuck at the moment and do need some good advice how to get this done.
Have you search the issue tracker for the database errors someone else will probably had similar. You might find an answer/workaround. Alternatively describe the errors your getting?
Failed to save Xml to file.
System.OutOfMemoryException: Eine Ausnahme vom Typ "System.OutOfMemoryException" wurde ausgelöst.
bei System.Text.StringBuilder.ToString()
bei umbraco.content.SaveXmlToString(XmlDocument xml)
bei umbraco.content.
Before i create an issue i will look at this further. At the moment i'm struggling with the cmsContentXml table, despite that upgrade to 7.3.8 looks good. i have to take care on several packages as well.

thx for your help Andreas
Hi Andreas,
Are you following the version specific upgrades guide?
https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/getting-started/setup/upgrading/version-specific
Also which method are you deploying? Nuget or Manual?
You shouldn't need to delete the XML cache every upgrade but it would be worth force building the cache.
You want to force-rebuild the Xml. That can be achieved by hitting /umbraco/dialogs/republish.aspx?xml=true
We are following the upgrade path. We already upgraded several sites without troubles - the sites were a bit smaller ;-)
But in this case, we do get database errors everytime we try. so its a bit annoying at the moment. Its a manual upgrade.
