Hello- I built a rails app and all of a sudden its performance has plumeted. There''s no specific culprit I have been able to find in my code. Here''s a sample line from my log file: Processing PagesController#faq (for 72.93.100.34 at 2008-10-14 13:04:57) [GET] Session ID: BAh7BzoMY3NyZl9pZCIlMTZlODgxMDE1OTVkNDc5MjBjMDkwOTQwNmE2OTky YmUiCmZsYXNoSUM6J0FjdGlvbkNvbnRyb2xsZXI6OkZsYXNoOjpGbGFzaEhh c2h7AAY6CkB1c2VkewA=--30d9fb5b1b5000e412e76309060148ecf42d8422 Parameters: {"action"=>"faq", "controller"=>"pages"} Rendering template within layouts/application Rendering pages/faq Completed in 8.29165 (0 reqs/sec) | Rendering: 7.91346 (95%) | DB: 0.00000 (0%) | 200 OK From this, it looks like it''s struggling to render the page. The DB% is at zero, so the usual culprit doesn''t seem to apply. Here''s my server setup: Fedora 9 MySql 5.0.51a nginx 0.6.23 mongrel 1.1.5 mongrel_cluster (running 2 instances of mongrel in the cluster) The site does use haml, which I know to be a little slower to render, but still, 8 seconds to render a page seems like an excessive amount of time. I''m not even sure where to start troubleshooting this one. Does anyone have any ideas? Has anyone seen something like this before?

At least at one point in the past if you did queries (or caused queries to be done) from the view then that would count as time spent rendering so this could still be a db problem.

Thanks for the advice. I installed it on our test machine and fired up Mongrel on port 3000 to do some testing. I did not use nginx or Mongrel Cluster. It was much faster. I then fired up nginx and Mongrel Cluster again. The site speed returned to a crawl. Then, instead of pointing to http://localhost:80, I hit Mongrel Cluster directly by going to http://localhost:8000 and experienced the same slowness. Unless someone can point out a flaw in my testing methodology (and there is likely to be a flaw), then I think it looks like Mongrel Cluster is the problem, but it just spawns Mongrel instances, so perhaps Mongrel is the culprit. Has anyone had performance issues with Mongrel. Here''s my mongrel_cluster.yml file: --- environment: production log_file: log/mongrel.log port: 8000 pid_file: tmp/pids/mongrel.pid servers: 3 Am I doing anything wrong? Thanks in advance.

Just so I understand the test box and your browser is on the same machine? Did you test this from a outside ip too? Your config''s look correct. What do you mean by this statement: "but it just spawns Mongrel instances, so perhaps Mongrel is the culprit" With your config you should have only three mongrel processes running on ports 8000-8002. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

For the most recent batch of tests, I just tested from the local machine. I wanted to take network latency out of the question. Plus, I didn''t want to monkey with my firewall settings. What I meant in that statement is that Mongrel Cluster is inlikely to be a problem itself as all it does is launch Mongrel processes. It isn''t much of a resource-consumer itself. I do, indeed, just have three instances running. Do you think I''d get significant information testing from a outside IP?
