Description of problem:
Publishing more than one content view is consuming servers IO (mongodb process consumes 50 - 200 MB/s). Content views are relatively small - contains 2 - 4 repositories. DB is located on SAN storage.
Publishing takes a long time and ends wit timeout error.
Satellite is running on vm with 16 CPUs and 16 GB RAM.

Issue reproduced by Chris Roberts:
"I am seeing the same issue with iscsi storage with 2 content views publishing with 2 rhel 7 repos:
34369 mongodb 20 0 12.585g 900368 774608 S 122.2 5.5 226:20.70 mongod

37842 apache 20 0 1125776 250672 4740 S 16.7 1.5 15:00.31 celery
"
It seems that external storage is the issue here.
Actual results:
Publishing more content views takes a long time and ends with timeout.
Expected results:
Acceptable publishing time and no timeout.
I think the component of this should probably not be "Pulp", since the fix was for katello to change how and when it queries pulp. Brad, if you agree, can you perhaps find a better component for it?
