FAQ
Hello,
I'm triyng to understand waht make some pages slow at some points of the
day. I am gathering the server side loading time. For example, I get:

[2010/02/18 17:08:18] "GET" request for
"latest/383192/euro-pro-shark-multi-vac" from "207.111.235.33"
[2010/02/18 17:08:18] Request took 8.274028s (0.121/s)
.------------------------------------------------------------+-----------.
Action | Time |
+------------------------------------------------------------+-----------+
/begin | 0.001262s |
my begin | 0.000213s |
- user info | 0.000583s |
- facebook api parsing | 0.000245s |
0.000093s |
/latest/bargain | 0.227671s |
-> /bargains/bargain | 0.227286s |
mysub | 0.226919s |
- processed arguments | 0.000202s |

- Get votes | 0.100351s |
- Find similar items | 0.006513s |
- Items from same store | 0.001060s |
- Added to favorites? | 0.108573s |
- Ads | 0.007552s |
- fill out template | 0.000162s |
/end | 0.007238s |
-> Bargain::View::TT->process | 0.006157s |
'------------------------------------------------------------+-----------'

The time don't add up. Form the timing under Action. it took less than 1
second. But the line before says 8.27s. Does it mean 7+ seconds were spend
doing something else? Doing what?

Thank you
Julien

    There are two things that spring to mind:

    1. Time spent reading the request from the user (after the connection is made
    but before the full request is received) is accounted to the "Request took"
    time but not to any action. Normally this should be a very small amount of
    time for a GET, but in case of very bad network conditions it could be longer.
    This wouldn't be any indication of the performance of your app.

    2. Your system could have had a major I/O stall between the beginning of
    request handling and the beginning of action dispatch, or between the end of
    action dispatch and the end of request handling. You would probably know if
    this was happening. :)

    3. Any other suggestions?

    Or something that qualifies as both. My immediate first suspicion
    in such cases: check your DNS lookup machinery.

    Hello,
    I don't have any DNS lookup in my application. Does catalyst make any
    reverse DNS lookup in debug mode?

    Thank you
