Topic: General slowness

Hello everyone

We are using GLPI in a standard instalation. No special issues.
Apache+MySQL…

Our database has in this moment 22 entities and 322 users, 21 mailgates that
take mails by imap. We are using it with either internet explorer 8, firefox or
chrome.

The problem is that we cannot work properly because the application freezes really often and we have to wait till it comes back.

Example:

Using firefox, after manually registering a ticket it freezes. Any other user can work in the meanwhile, it just freezes for one user. But if this user opens the application on another browser it works fine.

It usually happens when you perform some actions in a row. If we create a new entity and we begin entering users, it will freeze every 4 or 5 users.

We find the application highly interesting and we are looking forward to use it, but this problem is really annoying sometimes.

Thanks for reading and if you need any further information please do not hesitate to ask.

Cheers

Re: General slowness

GLPI Version is 0.72.4.

We fetch emails from 21 different folders of an IMAP mailbox. Mail and GLPI are on different servers but on the same LAN.

These processes keep growing to a certain point keeping the app frozen and then they finish themselves and the application comes back to life

@ Carsten

The freeze is random, and usually longer than 15 seconds

Re: General slowness

On my glpi installation I had these 15 seconds timeouts when imap server was contacted via cron. Take a look in your glpi cron.log. You will see

mailgate task was done (15.41s)

I fixed this by appending /norsh option to the connection string in field 'hosts' in glpi table glpi_mailgate. Like

{my.imap.server/imap/novalidate-cert/notls/norsh}

Maybe one of the devs can put the /norsh option into the mailgate setup page.
