Hi All,
I have experienced a similar issue with web2py. Issue:
[sometimes, once every few hits, it loads signifacantly slower
weirdest thing is when you re-click the link it loads instantly, when
you left it working to load on itself, it is slow.. like 4 to
8seconds ] Earlier I reported this kind of issue in a separate
thread.
Some findings ----
Office Env:
My web2py powered site will be up in production soon and I am awaiting
for getting in-house feedback. I am testing this on my local system
with the below config
OS: Win xp professional version 2002 with sp2 (old but works fine)
Machine: Intel P4, 2.8 GHz and 1 GB ram.
Web2py version latest (Version 1.79.2 (2010-06-08 22:45:26) )
I encounter the above said issue every time the system is left idle
for some minutes (Ex: If I start the web2py server and I am using my
web2py application continuously, it works well but if left idle for
some 5 mins or so, it becomes slow as mentioned above)
At home tough:
Home Env:
OS: Win xp professional version 2002 with sp2
Machine: Core2 Duo with 2 GB Ram
Web2py version 1.76.5 (prior to server change)
I deploy the same app and my site in the applications directory and I
never get such delays...
Conclusions:
1- May be its my system setup that could be the culprit
2- May be some thing is wrong with web2py or my code.
One more thing I noticed was (when using executesql the query or page
hit was a tad slower than when using the sql syntax provided by DAL)
so I changed all executesql statements to equivalent DAL statements
and these seemed to perform a bit faster.
Finally, I'll check the existing code with latest web2py version on my
home environment and get back if required.
I just thought that this could help in some way (since I am facing the
same issue) so jumped in between this conversation. Sorry for that
though.
Massimo, Thanks for a wonderful framework.. Everytime I see it and use
it, it keeps getting better and better..
Thanks, Rahul
