I agree with Pete - the ITRC is abnormally slowwwwwwwwww today - I told you guys it would be better on HP-UX and Apache - but no one would listen - IIS and NT just can't handle it. :)

[Balaji N]

hi dan,
itrc is very slow today (1400-1444 hrs IST).

also some problems while assigning points.

Pete, have you already tried

# speed.pl -d your.log

?

does it resemble my latest speed logs on https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/ sp-20030409.png or http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/sp-20030409.png

Enjoy, have FUN! H.Merijn

[Pete Randall]

Merijn,

De opgevraagde pagina bestaat niet op deze webserver !
Mail de link naar onderstaand adres ter correctie.


Pete

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

re-put and checked. Should work.

Enjoy, have FUN! H.Merijn

[Pete Randall]

Merijn,

Much better!

I hadn't bothered with the graphs because I frankly find the raw output easier to digest. The graph is "busy".


Pete

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

If you like a single line, just grep a single day out of your log into another file and use that

# grep '^2003-04-07' speed.log >xx
# speed.pl -d xx

or

# tail -140 speed.log >xx
# speed.pl -d xx

(??140 entries is a day)

Enjoy, have FUN! H.Merijn

Dan,

It's been slow all morning but somebody just hit the stop button around 11:20 AM EST. It took 560 seconds to open this thread. Procura stats:

As you can see from the 11:20 and 11:30 entries, "performance" has completely gone to hell. The forums are completely unusable in this state.

Hi Dan:

I can almost set my watch by these slowdowns. I would think escalation of this problem is in order.

Dan,

This looks very much like Latif???s work, but I can???t find his name anywhere near it (??).

http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,,0xef7a19434a69d711abdc0090277a778c,00.html

You ask why it looks like he was involved? I???m sure that I???m not the only one that remembers the thread that he messed up less than a month ago. If memory serves me correctly, it looked a lot like this one.

Any chances of fixing it?



Latif,

Sorry for the cheap shot, it was just too easy ;-)

[Stephanie Jenkins_1]

It would be great to have a search on the subject. There are times I would like to post a question, but spend an enormous amount of time reading postings to be sure the question hasn't been asked.

THANKS!!

[Kurt Beyers.]

Dan,

it's getting boring, but I always encouter problems when trying to reply in the morning. Can you clean up these 2 threads, my answer appeared way too much:

http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,,0x098319434a69d711abdc0090277a778c,00.html
http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,,0x008019434a69d711abdc0090277a778c,00.html

Before these 2 answers, I already submitted an answer without any problems. I don't understand where the problem is.

Dan,

I had such high hopes. It was already after noon EDT and performance had been fairly acceptable all morning (a little spotty here and there but no major stoppages). Then, around 12:15, somebody hit the "whoa" button:

Pete

[Steven E. Protter]

Is this a problem:

Error processing SSI file '/cm/CategoryHomeContent/1,11869,LoggedIn!245,00.html'


Is it me or HP?

SEP

[Pete Randall]

Dan,

Now I'm getting 404 errors. The ssi error that Steven is seeing must be next.


Pete

[Tom Maloy]

Consistently getting 404 errors when I try to access a page for the first time. Refresh finds the page.

[John Collier]

Dan,

Tried to stay out of this today, but I have been getting massive numbers of 404 errors on my first attempt to visit a page today and usually all I have to do is to hit refresh. I have already cleared the cache and history on the machine, but that doesn???t help a bit.

The last error that I got that prompted me to post to this thread is this one:
Error processing SSI file '/cm/QuestionAnswerContent/1,11870,LoggedIn!0x0b8519434a69d711abdc0090277a778c!0!1!0!0!0,00.html'

When that one popped up after all of the 404s, I figured it was time to clue you in on the situation from the US Mid West.

At this point in time, the forums are the next best thing to useless.

[Ron Kinner]

Dan,

I've had it with the slowness on the Networking forum. My monthly complaint has not done any good. As of today I am boycotting the Networking Forum.

If it is not important enough for you to fix the extra 10 second delay (over that of the HPUX and most other forums when they are working correctly) I don't see why I should waste my time there.

Maybe I can get Roger to complain about it since you opened a new Microsoft XP forum right after he asked you and I'd been asking for months.

Ron


PS Now that I think about it maybe we should all boycott the ITRC forums until HP gets their act together. This daily slowdown in the response time of all the forums should not be tolerated. Go to your management, Dan, and tell them you need more capacity because the natives are getting restless!

[Patrick Wallek]

Ron,

Just for grins I just went to the Networking forums and I did not see anything amiss. It seems to load at the same speed as the HP-UX forum for me.

[Kelli Ward]

Hi Dan,
Thought the 404 errors were partly on my end.
I am getting them frequently as well.
They seem to come and go in waves.
One minute, I can connect all over the forum, the next, wham, brick wall. Although with a little brute forcing, (clicking over and over) I can get it.
Thanks,
Kel

[James R. Ferguson]

Hi Dan:

Response time all day today has been SLOW. Now, starting this afternoon, I am seeing 404-errors when I submit a response (yet it *is* taken); and SSI errors on page refreshes. This is truly a sad state of affairs.

Regards!
