I recently found a machine of mine that was still running puppet 0.24.x, so I upgraded it to 0.25.4 (from the debian git repo). Now, puppet takes ages and ages to launch.
On a machine that's only ever had puppet 0.25.x installed: s...@newer$ puppet --version 0.25.4 s...@newer$ time puppet -v /dev/null info: Applying configuration version '1269437981' real 0m1.355s user 0m0.780s sys 0m0.456s Compared to this machine that started at 0.24: r...@older# time puppet --version 0.25.4 real 0m41.683s user 0m0.352s sys 0m0.152s r...@older# puppet -v /dev/null info: Loading facts in virtual info: Loading facts in acpi_available info: Loading facts in interfaces sh: Syntax error: Bad fd number sh: Syntax error: Bad fd number info: Applying configuration version '1269437572' real 9m13.255s user 0m0.616s sys 0m0.516s Granted these machines are different, but this is beyond what I can reasonable account for. I get pretty different looking things with --debug added. But on the slow one, most of the time is spent before any output is printed. And those "bad fd number" lines remind me of a 0.24 bug. So I wonder if there's some droppings left from 0.24? Or if there's some way to approach debugging this? Anyone have a suggestion? seph -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to puppet-us...@googlegroups.com.
