Slow performance and frequent errors.

I have all three logging options enabled and I've been looking all over the place all day for answers to this weird problem we have with WAWS. Every single web site we have has an abnormally high error 500 rate that is completely unacceptable. Based on
the logs it's something to do with FastCGI but the errors are often vague. Sometimes we'll get a status code of 0x00000000 and FastCGI saying that the it executed successfully. Other times it's 0x80004005, or something else. Our performance is also all over
the place, sometimes our sites will respond pretty snappy, other times it takes at least 4 seconds or more before anything happens. Three of our sites are set at scaled to the Shared level, and we've purchased two ClearDB databases to power the sites.
We've switched between both PHP versions, and edited the web.config files to add extra logging but all we get are errors like "The server encountered an internal error" or something along those lines. Is there something we're doing wrong or is this
typical of WAWS? Our client is launching their site pretty soon and we've been stress testing to give them an answer on how much their site can handle but the error rate is just too darn high. Please advise!?

This is not typical. There are ways you can troubleshoot this. See
this blog post for more information.

Dreamweaver CS3 (9) maxed CPU slow performance and FTP issues.

Dreamweaver CS3 (9) maxed CPU slow performance and FTP
issues.
Never mind...I found it.
Of course I have all the firewall, worm, scanning, phishing
filtering, full time protect, and everything else turned off when I
am working on a remote/testing site however I found the Symantec
antivirus email scan being enabled (doesn't it just interact with
my email program?) was getting in the way of DW9 ftp operations,
causing some lagging that was putting DW9 into an unstable mode
during and immediately after (10 seconds) ftp operations.
The CPU still spikes to 99% during ftp functions but DW9
works even though it's likely taxed to the max but when I turn off
email scan DW9 returned to a functioning state during ftp and
remote file view. Whatever it takes huh?
PS: email scanning only never effected DW8.02

Thanks for the response. I managed to Google the 'nobody' account and found the explanation.
As you say, I assumed the 'syslogd' process had to do with system logs. I did check the console and couldn't find anything of particular interest in the logs.
I'll continue to monitor but if anyone has any further suggestions please post.
One thing that might also have an impact... my available drive space is now down to less than 5gb (runs anywhere between 1gb and 5gb free depending on what I'm running). I know this causes problems for Parallels as it keeps moaning at me, but would it cause any problems with OSX?
Thanks again,
Tom

Since the upgrade to 4.0.1, both of my mac osx computers get multiple popups, despite being enable, and slow tracking and frequent freezing

Since the upgrade to 4.0.1, both of my mac osx computers get multiple popups and popunders, despite the block popups being enabled, as well as slow tracking(at regular card game sites, and frequent freezing of open windows.

Honestly I would never run both Win 7 & XP at the same time in a VM. 7 needs at least 4GB to run properly and uses more resources then XP.
I personally use VMware Fusion and XP. At this time there is no software, that I'm aware of or use, that does not run on XP. So for my Mac Win VM purpose I only run XP with the software in need to use in Windows. This work very well for me. I have 2 CPUs and 3GBs of RAM assigned to XP. Leaving the other 2 CPU cores, 4 HT cores, and 5GBs of RAM for OS X.
Not sure why you need, or want, to run both versions of Windows at the same time. I don't see the need as stated above.

Slow performance and org.samba.winbindd.plist problem

Hi -
I'm a newbie to the forum -- so please forgive any mis-steps in etiquette.
My machine has been experiencing hanging that gets progressively worse (more frequent, longer hangs) the more I keep working on it. Spinning beach ball, sometimes frozen cursor -- it resolves itself eventually but performance is so bad it is a major impediment. I have run DiskWarrior, repaired permissions over and over -- that seems to help, briefly, but once I do some work in Word and Safari, the problem re-emerges and builds again. During a visit to Genius Bar earlier this week, we wiped the drive, reinstalled OS, and then restored from Time Machine. The issue came back immediately (I should have played around before the restore to confirm that with clean OS install, things worked).   EtreCheck report is below. I know that Symantec/Norton is likely a source of the problem but I have to have that particular anti-virus software on my machine to connect to work server :-(
I am thinking my next step is to uninstall and reinstall Norton AntiVirus -- and only use AntiVirus -- avoiding the other components of Norton Security. But I would love some input on that. And I am also wondering if the problem might not be caused by the following?
Problem System Launch Daemons: ℹ️
[not loaded] org.samba.winbindd.plist
I've searched for information about what to do when that shows up as an issue but didn't find an answer to that issue specifically.
From what I read in my searches, it seems that having only 2 GB of memory is likely also an issue -- but if that's the case, I don't understand why it hasn't been until now?
Thank you in advance for information/assistance!

I'm replying to myself because I think I found the prime culprit behind my system hanging. Although there are clearly multiple problems in my system, it appears that a somewhat hidden feature of Norton Firewall was pushing it over the edge.
A subsequent rerun of EtreCheck showed this:

I had disabled all of Norton's firewall functions already. But a websearch on symdeepsight-extractor and system problems told me about the following step I hadn't taken. In Norton Firewall, advanced settings, I turned off Norton Deepsight Community Download, and Norton Deepsight Community Submission.
Safari speeded up immediately -- video that wouldn't play earlier played without a hitch -- hanging is (mostly) gone. Hope this info helps someone else even though the subject line is off target!

Cisco RV 120W VERY slow performance and being unreachable

Hello!
I have strange issues with my RV 120W, which I bought after the recommendations from a Cisco/Linksys pre-sales support. I'm using this unit for SOHO environment with two clients (computers) connected and a few mobile clients. Nothing special and nothing complex. I replaced my WRT610N router with this one on behalf of the VPN features, the RV 120W offers.
Before initial setup I upgraded firmware to it's latest (1.0.1.3).
The issues I'm having with this thing are:
- very slow WLAN performance. And I mean - very, very slow. After doing some analysis I'm having a drop from 10Mbit/s to a stable speed of only a few houndrets of kilos per second. Even less. An average, constant speed test show no more than 50-80 kB/s. And I have a 20/20Mbit link.
- very slow WAN - LAN performance. Although not as slow as WLAN, even LAN is somehow slow with an average throughput from WAN to LAN show no more than 15Mbit/s.
- WAN IP address - host cannot be reached. After setting up the router to be able to echo the PING and be remotely managed, I can achive both services JUST for about 20 seconds after the unit reboots. After those 20 seconds, remote management sessions are timed out and the host is unreachable. But If I reboot the router again, I get it to work again - for no more than 20 seconds.
As this is my first (more) professional router, I'm not really sure if I've got my VPN setup correctly. I cannot get it my VPN to work either and I can't tell if these issues are related.
Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks

Hey Juka,
Sorry your having issues with the rv120w.
I seen that you upgraded the firmware on the rv120w when you got it. I always do a factory reset of the device when upgrading the firmware. I will first backup my configs, factory reset the device, then reload the configs.
Try that since you did do a firmware upgrade to see if the device speeds up for you.
The wireless issues you were describing, I would do a wireless scan using a wireless analysis software like INSSIDER or something like it, that way you can see the wireless channels that are being used and set your router manually to a channel that has no or the least congestion.
Try this and let us know what you get.

Imap performance and socket errors

-bash-3.00$ imsimta version
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.2-8.04 (built Feb 28 2007)
libimta.so 6.2-8.04 (built 19:28:07, Feb 28 2007)
SunOS vmpm1 5.10 Generic_141414-02 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V490
We're experiencing imap problems that appear to be load related, and have had to restart mail services several times to restore service. The imap logs show a large number of socket errors. The server load average is in the 1-2 range; there's no apparent memory resource problem. We're seeing 600-1000 simultaneous imap sessions, which is a higher number than in the past. We run JMS & Communications Express on dedicated V490 SPARC server with 8GB of memory. We're planning to add an additional 8GB this Friday.
Our imap configuration settings are as follows:
-bash-3.00$ configutil | grep service.imap
service.imap.enable = 1
service.imap.enablesslport = yes
service.imap.idletimeout = 30
service.imap.maxsessions = 4000
service.imap.maxthreads = 250
service.imap.numprocesses = 1
service.imap.objectclass = top
service.imap.plaintextmincipher = 0
service.imap.port = 143
service.imap.sslcachesize = 0
service.imap.sslport = 993
service.imap.sslusessl = yes
Can you suggest additional troubleshooting steps? Do you recommend any configuration changes?
Thanks.

Questions:
1. Our JMS version info doesn't state whether it is 32 or 64-bit. Therefore, I assume we are running a 32-bit version. Is that correct?Correct. There is no 64-bit version of MS6.2.
2. Is there a virtual memory limit on the 32-bit version of JMS 6.2? Is the limit greater for JMS 6.3?The Solaris OS imposes the virtual memory size limit of ~3.75GB for all 32bit processes on SPARC. 64-bit processes have a much much larger limit.

Workaround for slow performance and poor resolution with RED R3D files in After Effects CC 2014 (13.0)

http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2014/06/red-r3d-problems-after-effects-cc-2014-13-0.ht ml
The After Effects team are investigating a bug in After Effects CC 2104 (13.0) where RED (.R3D) files are very slow and the image resolution is poor, about 1/8 sampling.
The following workaround has been reported to solve the problems in some cases:
Save the project.
Choose Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache.
Please post in this thread about whether or not this workaround helped you.

Intentionally cross-linking threads: this issue was first reported in this thread, which has an ongoing discussion:
AE 2014CC RED R3D files support broken - footages looks bad, everything slow.
The thread you are in now is the comment thread for the blog post. Please post in whichever thread makes more sense for you. I am monitoring both.

Xorg using 30% cpu when idle,slow performance and video problems

I'm having a problem with Xorg, I don't know what it is but I guess it has something to do with configuration problems because in Ubuntu eerything works out of the box.
My problems are these:
1. Xorg is using arround 30% cpu when the computer is idle and very simple animations in kde like minimize a window are performed very poorly.
2. Compiz' performance is very poor and chopy
3. h264 videos are not wachable. it feels like watching 3fps videos.
as i mentioned above, i don't have any of these problems with ubuntu.

Very slow broadband and frequent disconnects

Hi
I have been a new BT customer since April 2013 after moving to rural Scotland. They gave estimated speeds as 8Mb download and 2Mb upload which I was happy with considering location. For about 3 months those were the speeds we were getting until a phone fault which was traced to a loose copper wire at the exchange.
An engineer was sent, the fault repaired and things returned to normal for around 2 weeks until the router disconnected and since then despite untold hours on the phone to BT support, 3 routers and 2 engineers later, the issue remains unresolved. I'm at my wits end now and hope someone on here can help. We do have an Openreach engineer in the village but he takes cables out and doesn't have access to all the test equipment.
Here are my router stats:
ADSL Line Status
Connection Information
Line state: Connected
Connection time: 0 days, 07:59:12
Downstream: 4.063 Mbps
Upstream: 448 Kbps
ADSL Settings
VPI/VCI: 0/38
Type: PPPoA
Modulation: G.992.1 Annex A
Latency type: Interleaved
Noise margin (Down/Up): 8.5 dB / 17.0 dB
Line attenuation (Down/Up): 10.1 dB / 3.5 dB
Output power (Down/Up): 13.9 dBm / 12.3 dBm
FEC Events (Down/Up): 59064 / 0
CRC Events (Down/Up): 1 / 0
Loss of Framing (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Signal (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Power (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
HEC Events (Down/Up): 0 / 0
Error Seconds (Local/Remote): 1 / 0
Btw, that download speed has been 8Mb all the time we've had the router installed but from yesterday which was really bad for disconnects (and you can see it has been off again in the night) it's now suddenly 4Mb.

welcome to the BT community forum where customers help customers and only BT employees are the forum mods
in order for the forum members to help please can you run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems). when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post the results ( do not reset the router).
are you connected directly via a filter to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Very slow speed and frequent disconnection

I have been using BT broadband since 6/09/13 and my speed has been below par so far. I have only received 3mbit/s or less when my line is capable of 8mbit/s. Along with this, I disconnect frequently for seemingly no reason. When I contacted bt support, they assured me that the disconnections was the exchange testing out my connection during the 10 day training period, but even after that the issues persist.
From checking the homehub's event log, I found that this message was being given when the connection dropped: "20:55:08, 20 Sep.(404656.240000) PPP LCP Send Termination Request [User request]"
Does anybody know what this means?

I've been connected to the test socket for a couple of weeks, and I've found that it makes no difference.
I've noticed the downstream noise margin has been very high: "DSL noise margin: 5.90 dB upstream, 17.40 dB downstream". I think this is what BT has set for my line, from my previous ISPs I had a 6db noise margin and my line was fine.
1. Best Effort Test:
Download Speed : 0.82 Mbps
2. Upstream Test:
Upload Speed : 0.76 Mbps
However the speed tester was unable to find my ip profile.

Slow performance and high memory usage

I do website development so I have Firefox, IE, Chrome and Opera, all updated to the most recent versions. However, for as long as I can ever remember, Firefox has always used more system resources.
As an example, I opened up one site in all 4 browsers and here is the memory usage for each one:
Firefox 200,016
Chrome 5,476k
Chrome 33,504k
Chrome 2,008k
Chrome 4,592k

This Firefox had all add-ons disabled. Yet I still use Firefox as my default browser mainly due to a couple of add-ons that I find very helpful for what I do.
My question is why does Firefox have to be so much of a resource hog? Can't programmers write tighter code that executes faster? It's a great browser but when gaming, I usually use one of the other browsers.
I've included the clipboard from the troubleshooting information so hopefully that will help someone pinpoint a reason for this problem.
All-in-all, good work on the version 8.

Have you tried creating a new profile to see if a vanilla profile (with '''no''' add-ons) is also slow for you? One of the things showing in your troubleshooting report is a network printer. A fresh profile without that network printer and with no residual add-on data may be considerably faster.

Very slow downloads and frequent timeouts

Hi,
I've been using the iTunes store with no problems, until about 2 weeks ago. Usual download time for a tv episode is around 40 mins, but now its varies from 80 - 120 hours per episode, that is if it does not time out.
I've been searching around the forums and found something quite interesting under "Using iTunes for windows". A user from japan said that he was getting the same problem, but he used Anonymizer SSL to bypass his ISP and connected straight to the Anonymizer servers in the USA. This, he said, made his download times normal again. The thing is, Anonymizer SSL is only for Windows.
His theory was that iTunes was blocking all foreign IP addresses, so as to prevent their servers from congestion from users outside USA. By using Anonymizer SSL, his IP address was invincible from the iTunes servers, thus allowing him to download at normal speed. Has anyone heard about this yet? I'd like to know if there are any users outside USA who are currently having problems with the US ITunes store. Then, we might be able to really see what's going on.
I'd really appreciate it if someone could lend a hand and shed some light on this problem. I've got hundreds of dollars worth of movies and music that are still waiting to be downloaded.
Thanks in Advance.
Ben
P/S: Anyone know of an Anonymizer software for macs? Cheers!

If you go further down in the discussion forum you will see that there are a few of us who are experiencing the same problem. I live in Greece, and although I have proceeded with all the suggested steps, more times than not in the past week, I cannot connect to the ITS
Apple has not given me any useful tips.
I really cannot understand this

Slow performance and display problems

I've already submitted this question, but thought I would change the subject to make it more descriptive:
I just recently installed Acrobat 8 Professional on an older machine that I have. It is running Windows XP Professional SP3, processor 2.4GHz with 512 RAM. It has only MS Office and Acrobat loaded on it.
I can create a PDF document, but when I pull up the Properties menu, the program seems to have a delayed response and also it has garbled text and you can see everything from the document showing through on the menu so you can't read the menu.
Could this be a memory issue or is there something else that I need to check. Thanks.

Experiment with section module. My i945 is
load "dbe"
load "freetype"
subsection "extmod"
option "omit xfree86-dga"
endsubsection
Try to comment busid in section device and add another section device before your existing one
section "device"
identifier "tommy"
vendorname "unknown"
boardname "unknown"
driver "vga"
endsection
Try the drivers i810 and vesa in section device
My file was created by xorgconfig (run this from the console)

Poor Performance after start up and Frequent Crashes

I have a brand new imac i order a little over 6 months ago, i immediately migrated my old imac's files to the new mac and everything worked great but then slowly began to degrade in performance and now i have nothing but problems that have gotten worse.
The first problem occurred with a slow performance speed after about a month of amazing performance.
Then I noticed the new magic mouse i had ordered with the computer would lose connection with the computer causing it to crash, also the new mouse would not hold a charge for long. My last magic mouse did not have this issue.
My computer would fall asleep and then i could be unable to wake it by using my mouse, even plugging in an apple pro wired mouse would not work, i had to turn the power on and off to restart
My bluetooth was acting funny trying to connect to devices i hadn't authorized
Then came a kernel crash.
Then came apple 3 tired support who after weeks of diagnosis over the phone were stumped.
I tried the following to fix the problems myself:
reset the Pram
Repaired Disk Permissions
Checked the hardware
reinstalled the OS
Checked for and installed all software updates
Reset the SMC
Ran 3rd party software "mackeeper" to optimize my files and check for viruses
Clean up unneeded files so plenty of memory
And finally downloaded a 3rd part program called "idrefrag" to defrag my system files.
nothing worked
I was unable to take additional time to deal with the issue, i work and attend school online and was extremely busy during the summer so i had to just deal with the issues because being without my computer was not an option i had.
After my busy summer ended, the problems had only gotten worse
Now, not only does the mac fall asleep and not wake up and not respond to the magic mouse to wake up or reconnect when the mouse and mac lose signal, but now when i plug in a usb flash drive to my external flash drive port, it's like playing russian roulette, half the time it's fine, the other half the computer freeze upon insertion of the drive. I shouldn't have so much anxiety plugging in a 8gb flash drive.
but now on to the worst part, before the summer when i had to restart after crashes it was normal, but now when i restart, the computer acts like it has to remember how to even be a computer again. Upon restarting after the classic Mac tone:
My mac desktop begins to reload, although the icons on the top right appear then disappear and then appear to load back up very slowly.
Moving files to another folder or tp the trash is painstakingly slow, i get a message saying "preparing to move file" that goes on for 10 minutes.
Simple tasks like trying to copy and paste or access my "places" on the side bar like "movies, "Pictures" etc cause a pinwheel and then each "place" has to load all the files as if it's searching the computer for them all before i have access to them, this can take 5-10 minutes
When i click on an application from the dock to load, it just bounces for a while and then finally starts up but takes 5 minutes or more to be able to access without a pinwheel
Overall the computer basically forgets how to be a computer and has to relearn how to do the simplest tasks, the next 24 hours is plagued by pinwheels and slow performance and then it acts fine again, but i can never shut it down or it start all over again, so i just let it fall asleep when not in use and cross my fingers that when i come back it will respond to the mouse and wake up, half the time it does, the other half, i have to restart by holding the power button down and then pressing it to start up again.
I had to just adapt, so i have a good system down now and so when I restart i run the system disk utility and repair the HD 1 & 2 's permission which always seems to have a lot of issues and that kinda helps speed along the 24 hour relearning process. But i shouldn't have to do all this stuff, i spent 3,000 on this computer, i bought all the upgrades and after a couple of months of amazing performance i was left with a time bomb and 3 tier apple support who have no idea where to go and now wont even call me back despite my paying for 4 years of apple care, I am at a total loss of what to do, i can't afford to send the machine off for diagnosis and repair and frankly think Apple should send me a new machine since not only does the mac itself present problems, but so does the new magic mouse, and the rechargeable batteries and charger i purchased from them as well.
My Mac info:
Mac OS X Version 10.6.8
Model Name:          iMacModel Identifier:          iMac12,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core i7
Processor Speed:          2.8 GHz
Number of Processors:          1
Total Number of Cores:          4
L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
L3 Cache:          8 MB
Memory:          16 GB
Serial -ATA
any suggestions?

Thats a shame, you should be enjoying your mac!, what was the final outcome of the Apple support guys?. I think if it were me and i had tried tried everything that you have including the support tech. i would be pressing for a replacement mac.

Newbie: 6020E (USB) slow performance with mixed digital and analog input

Hi,
I'm using a 6020E to do analog and digital input, and I'm getting very bad performance.
Please note that doing IO in Labview is new to me!
I have read the post about 6020E slow performance, and it says I should do buffered IO.
Can anybody point me to some DOC or SAMPLE that actually shows or explains how one should do this. I need to read several digital IO lines (which I can combine in one port-read), and several analog inputs.
Seeing how slow the reading on the 6020E is, I am amazed there is only one post that deals with this issue.
I would be satisfied to get the 6020E into some sort of continuous read mode so that whenever I need data, I get the latest reading right away.
thanks,
Peter D'Hoye

Hi Peter,
Your cannot do buffered digital I/O with your daqpad. It doesn't have that capability. You can only make direct software calls with digital read/write from/to your port. So your digital IO is completely software clocked and not hardware clocked. The example you are trying is only for specific Simultanuous sampling boards or now also for M-series boards that are able to do correlated DIO.
Use the Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk.vi example for your analog measurements. (NI Example Finder) For your digital IO you can only use the examples like Read Dig Chan.vi, Read Dig Port,...
There are indeed some slow performance issues with single point I/O Operations, that is correct.
Check the explaination below:
DAQPads are offered for the Universal Serial Bus (USB) and the IEEE 1394 (also known as FireWire). Both of these standards use a high-speed serial communication protocol between the computer and the device with a bandwidth up to 12 MB/s for USB and 400 MB/s for FireWire.
During a single point operation, the DAQ device requires a complete set of configuration commands. This is done through serial communication (USB or FireWire), making the process slower than in a PCI-based board. The speed obtained for single point operation in a DAQPad is system dependent; this means that your computer processor, memory, bus speed, and other factors alter the speed at which you can do single-point operations with a DAQPad.
For example, on the DAQPad-6020E, timed non-buffered analog input operations are limited to about 50 Hz. At higher rates, the software may become unresponsive. On a FireWire device, you can expect stable operation around 3,000 Hz. But again, these figures are system dependent.
Regards.
