Slow Performance in Non IE Browsers

I'm struggling with slow performance with non IE browsers (I.e. Opera or Firefox), or connections through a proxy server to an applicaton I wrote. This is what I am using...
JSF 1.2
EJB 3.0
Facelets
RichFaces Taglib
SJSAS 9.1
Anyone have any suggestions where to direct my frusterations?

There is enhancement filed about this issue that you are experiencing. Also, there are a new set of PL/SQL API documentation that is automatically generated and we are checking to see if those have the same issue.
Thanks,
Sue Vickers

  • First off, i think it's sad that i have to use my non apple device to post this question... Why has my iPad become absolutely useless after updating to iOS 8.1? I am unable to use my mini because it crashes, slow performance, major battery drain.

    Restore iPad to Factory Default; do not restore from backup. It may be the cause of the problem.

  • Slow Performance - Java Related?

    This is an old box that I bought used recently, but the system install is recent. The system performs very slowly - about 50% of the speed of comparable Mac's in the XBench database. If I use Xupport to manully run "All" of the system maintenance crons I get some improvement, but it quickly goes back to being slow.
    Looking at my logs I have a "boat load" of Java errors under CrashReporter; there will be a string of "JavaNativeCrash_pidXXX.log" entries - many of them, as follows:
    An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
    Unexpected Signal : Bus Error occurred at PC=0x908611EC
    Function=[Unknown.]
    Library=/usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib
    NOTE: We are unable to locate the function name symbol for the error
    just occurred. Please refer to release documentation for possible
    reason and solutions.
    Many of the line entries that follow, but not all of them, refer to SargentD2OL, which is a Java app, which I installed, but it did not work properly so I removed it. Yet I continue to get Java errors that refer to this now non-existant app.
    I have read that Java apps use a lot of resources, and that D2OL in particular uses a lot of resources. Can my slow performance problem be Java related? If so, any idea of how I can fix this problem?

    Sorry to take so long to respond, but other issues in life have demanded my attention.
    None of the solutions given have had any affect. My Java folder has both a 1.3.1 and a 1.4.2 app - the Java Update 2 will not reinstall because it sees an up-to-date app in the folder. But reading the update file it says the older Java will be removed - but it is still there. Problem?
    On XBench the system scores a 9 to 10, while similar boxes on the XBench database score around 18 to 20. My cpu, memory, and video scores are very low. The HD through-put scores are the only ones that are normal. TechTool Pro 4 finds no problems. I have removed the memory sticks one at a time and retested after each cycle - no difference.
    I have two drives, each with a 10.3.9 install. One works fine, scores around a 17 on XBench, the other scores a 9 to 10. So it appears to be a software problem. The slower install is a drive from a iMac G3 that has been moved to the G4 - are there issues with this?
    My favored drive is the prior G3 one (newer and faster than the other drive that system tests faster in XBench) - it has my profile and all my info on it. It worked fine in the G3 - no problems.
    Thanks for the help,

  • Slow performance on Intel Mac a damaged disk?

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing very slow performance on my Intel Mac 216 Ghz core duo, with 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. Running OS 10.6.8. Have been experiencing reduced performance, can't use Entourage email or Chrome, Firefox browsers at the same time. Ran Utilities to repair permissions, only a Java set of issues. Disk Utilities found no problems with the disk.  Have experienced this issue increasingly for 5-6 months. Using Activity Window i see that Entourage, Word, Safari, Chrome, even System Preferences pane sometimes "Is not responding". Other system services take longer than before.
    Apple support had me get larger RAM chip. Now have 2GB Ram. Upgraded to OS 10.6.8 with no improvement. Ran Software Update several times.
    I have no anti virus software, have disabled Spotlight and any other memory demanding software. I'm on a in-home wi-fi network on an Airport Extreme.
    In addition, at startup it takes 15+ seconds for the keyboard (wired) typing to show in the log on field. Running a single account with Admin access. Screen refreshes slow at times. Currently running is Safe Boot mode but that's not helping much.
    Read on this board discussion 23238910 to use Terminal Window to do a syslog comand. The results in the Text Edit reads

    I need to resolve the issue as it's killing my time!
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    It does not sound good for your disk drive.
    I suggest you backup everything to an external disk drive ASAP.

  • Extremely slow performance with Radeon HD 7870

    Hi,
    I am using a number of Adobe programs on my new Windows 8 64 bit system, with 16 gigs of ram, an Intel Core i5 2.67ghz, and AMD Radeon HD 7870 2 gig. All the programs (including After Effects and Illustrator) work very well with the exception of Photoshop CS6 64 bit, which has extremely slow performance with Use Graphics Processor enabled in my preferences (which Photoshop selects by default). If I turn off Use Graphics Processor, the slow performance vanishes. If I change Drawing Mode to Basic, there might be a slightly detectable improvement over Normal and Advanced, but it's still horribly slow. The refresh rate seems to be just a few frames per second. Everything is slow: brushes, zooming, panning, everything.
    I've tried changing the settings I've seen suggested elsewhere: I switched Cache levels to 2, history states to 10, and tile size to 128k. No effect. Photoshop is currently at the default of using 60% of available ram. Efficiency has remained at 100% throughout all my tests. Also, this slow performance has affected me from the moment I installed Photoshop; it didn't crop up after previous good performance. The problem exists regardless of the size or number of documents I have open. Performance is still terrible even when I create a 500 x 500 pixel blank new canvas and try a simple task like drawing with the brush.
    Photoshop is fully up to date, and so are my graphics drivers (Catalyst version 13.1). Any help would be greatly appreciated; at the moment performance is so bad in Photoshop that it's unusable with graphics acceleration enabled. Thanks in advance for replying.

    Great news!
    I followed your suggestion, Noel, and uninstalled my drivers with the Catalyst Uninstall Utility (which I hadn't used before), rebooted, reinstalled Catalyst 13.2 Beta 7, rebooted, deleted the PS Prefs, started PS, and now the performance is radically improved!
    It baffles me why I would need to do a clean driver uninstall in a new system environment that has only ever had this video card, and is only a few months old, but that action seems to be what's improved the situation. Note that because I deleted the PS preferences, the good performance now occurs with the default Use Graphics Processor enabled, and Drawing Mode set to Advanced (with every feature in the Advanced dialog checked except 30bit display).
    Having no reference point, I can't tell for sure if performance is as good as it theoretically ought to be for my system specs, but using the standard 13px brush is only slightly laggy behind the cursor, even if I become reckless and squiggle on the canvas violently. It wasn't just sluggish response before: Photoshop seemed to be in pain trying to draw the line segments as it laboured to catch up to the cursor. That is pretty much gone now.
    Much more tellingly, zooming and panning the canvas is like it ought to be, responsive and clean, more or less like it was for me in CS4 with my old Nvidia 9600GT. The poor performance with zooming and panning was the most worrying aspect of the issue. It's a great relief to see these working more properly now.
    I have to confess I'm a little embarrassed to have drug you through all this hassle only to discover that something as rudimentary as properly cleaning out the drivers would be the apparent solution. I never would have imagined that doing that, with such a new and stable system, would make any difference, since I don't have a legacy of older drivers dotting my hard drive. In any event, I'm really grateful that you guys took the time to try to help me.
    In the interest of completeness, here's the relevant portion of my system info after doing the reinstall steps I mentioned above:

    As you can see, the Microsoft Basic Render Driver still appears as a Video Card in the list. This presumably has something to do with Windows 8, and I really don't know if its presence here is still a sign that my card is not being used to its optimal capability. I have a hunch that the slight lag that I am still experiencing with the brush when Use Graphics Processor is on -- totally absent with the acceleration turned off -- implies that Photoshop is still unable to take maximum advantage of my card. I would assume that the brush tool should be more responsive with acceleration on than off, in a rig without any issues, but that's just assumption on my part. If you turn off Use Graphics Processor on your systems, is the brush tool more or less responsive?
    But again, panning the canvas with the hand tool is now extremely responsive, without any screen tearing or visible lag, and that's a massive improvement over the total meltdown of performance I was suffering from before.
    Thanks again very much for your help. I'm grateful to all of you who took the time to chime in.

  • Very, very slow performance

    Lightroom's performance on my computer has become, at times, intolerably slow.  After rebooting my iMac and not opening any other programs or browsers, it just took about eight minutes to import 23 files, and a few more minutes to build 1:1 previews.  When things are running fine this might take one minute.  (I always build 1:1 previews on import and this happens with recently imported files as well as older ones, so it's not a question of having to build previews on the fly.)  I've had extremely slow performance ("Loading") just moving from one photo to another in the Library and Develop modules or moving from one module to another, typically up to about 90 seconds, or when LR is "preparing the file" for export or edit in PS.  But not always -- sometimes it's quite zippy -- and there's no pattern that I can see.  Generally when this is occurring, memory "pressure" and CPU usage are normal, but it happens when usage is minimal as well.  Occasionally there is a spinning beach ball but not usually. 
    My catalog has about 30k photos and very few presets of any kind.  Probably 75% of these files have never been edited at all.  I don't make hundreds of local adjustment, rarely more than ten in one image.  I have about 40 Smart Collections with an average of several hundred images each.  I rarely use Smart Previews.  I optimize and back up the catalog every time I exit LR, which is a few times a week.  My file/folder structure is simple and clean:  /Pictures/year/day.
    I'm running LR 5.4 on a mid-2011 iMac, 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, with 16GB of memory.  I have the Lightroom catalog and previews on the main drive, which is a 250GB SSD with about 100GB free.  (Problem happened when my catalog was on different internal drive, too.)  My pictures folder is on an internal drive with over 100GB available.  I have the maximum cache size set to 50GB.  I'm running Mavericks but it was just as slow under Mountain Lion.  It was just as slow in earlier versions of Lightroom, major and minor.  Other programs/apps run just fine on my computer, including Photoshop.  (Generally, LR's performance is the same whether or not PS is running.)  The only performance issue I've noticed since switching to Mavericks is that Finder stalls for several seconds every once in a while.
    I've seen this Lightroom problem referred to on various forums, including Adobe forums, for a long time now -- years -- and I've never seen a definitive fix.  I think I've answered all of the questions that are usually asked.  Is there any solution to this?  I use LR 30-40 hours per week.  I'm tearing my hair out and the option of moving to another program would be the very last resort, but I might have to do that. 

    I don't use your same workflow, and I assume you're shooting RAW. However,  after I have built 1:1 previews in LR (which takes a LONG time), when I click on a file to decide if it's sharp or not, it still takes 5-10 seconds for each file to load. And my computer isn't slow, and I have the same issue on my laptop, which is new and fast. I haven't seen a satisfactory answer to this problem, nor much acknowledgement from Adobe. My files are from a Nikon D7100 with 24 megapixels, so the file size is likely a factor.
    If you are shooting the type of subjects where you use 1:1 previews primarily to determine sharpness, you could consider Photo Mechanic (unfortunately it costs $150) as the first step in your workflow. It uses the embedded jpg files in the RAW file, so it loads 1:1 jpg previews almost instantly. Sports and nature photographers use this product all the time, mostly to delete losers.

  • Extremely slow performance on projects under version control using RoboHelp 11, PushOk, Tortoise SVN repository

    We are also experiencing extremely slow performance for RoboHelp projects under version control. We are using RoboHelp 11, PushOk and a Tortoise SVN repository on a Linux server. We are using a Linux server on our IT guys advice because we found SVN version control under Windows was unstable.
    When placing a Robohelp project under version control, and yes the project is on my local machine, it can take up to two hours to complete. We are using the RoboHelp sample projects to test.
    We have tried to put the project under version control from Robohelp, and also tried first putting the project under version control from Tortoise SVN, and then trying to open the project from version control in Robohelp. In both cases, the project takes a ridiculous amount of time to open. The Robohelp status bar displays Querying Version Control Status for about an hour before it starts to download from the repository, which then takes more than an hour to complete. In many cases Robohelp becomes unresponsive and we have to start the whole process again.
    If adding the project to source control completes successfully, and the the project is opened from version control, performing any function also takes a very long time, such as creating a topic. When I generated a printed documentation layout it took an astonishing 218 minutes and 17 seconds to complete. Interestingly, when I generated the printed documentation layout again, it took 1 min and 34 seconds. However when I closed the project, opened from version control, and tried to generate a printed documentation layout, it again took several hours to complete. The IT guys are at a loss, and say it is not a network issue and I am starting to agree that this is a RoboHelp issue.
    I see there are a few other discussions here related to this kind of poor performance, none of which seem to been answered satisfactorily. For example:
    Why does it take so long when adding a new topic in RH10 with PushOK SVN
    Does anybody have any ideas on what we can do or what we can investigate? I know that there are options for version control, but am reluctant to pursue them until I am satisfied that our current issues cannot be resolved.
    Thanks Mark

    Do other applications work fine with the source control repository? The reason I'm asking is because you must first rule out that there are external factors causing this behaviour. It seems that your it guys have already looked at it, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
    I have used both VSS and TFS and I haven't encountered such a performance issue. I would suggest filing it as a bug if you rule out that the problem is not related to external influences: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en

  • Extremely slow performance with ojdbc6.jar on IBM JVMs (Java 6)

    We are consistently seeing slow performance (easily demonstrable by the simplest of test cases) while using ojdbc6.jar on IBM JDKs. Pefrormance is normal when we simply opt for ojdbc14.jar under the same JDK, same java program.
    Works well
    =======
    JRockit, ojdbc6.jar
    JRockit, ojdbc14.jar
    IBM JDK, ojdbc14.jar
    A lot slower
    =======
    IBM JDK, ojdbc6.jar
    All we had to do was to write a simple JDBC access program and measure time taken around
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcURL, dbProps);
    The first 3 combinations mentioned above return comparable numbers. The 4th combination takes 3-4 times as much.
    We initially saw this during performance test of our software on WebSphere (also supported on Weblogic). Later was able to eliminate WebSphere and Weblogic as the problem areas and narrow it down to the JVM. Reproduce-able on development machines.
    We have been using Oracle/WLS since BEA used to market 'Tengah' servers. This is the worst we have seen as far as the qaulity of support staff goes. We first level support seems clueless. We filed this case and the support comes back tells us that IBM JDKs are not supported for WLS! Oh, we have been running WLS/AIX/IBM JVM combination only for 5+ years.

    A quick solution to test this would be to do the following:
    mv /dev/random /dev/random.bk
    ln /dev/urandom /dev/random
    Note: The quick solution will disappear after a reboot. You could add it to rc.local to automatically make this change, but I wouldn't recommend it.
    The following is from [http://www.usn-it.de/index.php/2009/02/20/oracle-11g-jdbc-driver-hangs-blocked-by-devrandom-entropy-pool-empty/]:
    "Oracle 11g JDBC driver hangs blocked by /dev/random – entropy pool empty
    On a headless (=without console) network server, the 11g JDBC driver used for (java) application connect may cause trouble. In my case, it refused to connect to the DB without any error, trace or log entry. It simply hung. After several hours, it connected one time, and freezed again. Remote debugging done by the development clarified that it locks after calling SeedGenerator() and SecureRandom().
    Reason: The JDBC 11g needs about 40 bytes of secure random numbers, gathered from /dev/random, to encrypt its connect string.
    But public-available “man 4 random” says:
    When read, the /dev/random device will only return random bytes within the estimated number of bits of noise in the entropy pool. /dev/random should be suitable for uses that need very high quality randomness such as one-time pad or key generation. When the entropy pool is empty, reads from /dev/random will block until additional environmental noise is gathered.
    So far so good, now the question arises: Why does this mystic “entropy pool” runs out of gas?
    The answer is as simple as unsatisfying: because too less entropy “noise” was generated by the system. You can check the “filling level” (maybe zero?) of your pool and the overall size of the pool (usually 4096) by issuing
    cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
    cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/poolsize
    Hint: /dev/random will deliver one new random number as soon as the pool has reached more than 64 entropy units.
    So why does my box not generate more entropy noise?
    Because only few drivers will fill the entropy pool, first of all keyboard and mouse. Sounds very useful on a server in a datacenter, isn’t it? Some block device and network drivers seem to do so as well, and I have read from guys on the net changing their network card and driver to enjoy this “feature”! But let’s stop ranting, /dev/random is simply made for high security randomness, and if it can’t make sure that randomness is as good as possible in this deterministic world, it stops. Intelligent people have created /dev/urandom for that, like “man 4 random” clearly states:
    A read from the /dev/urandom device will not block waiting for more entropy. As a result, if there is not sufficient entropy in the entropy pool, the returned values are theoretically vulnerable to a cryptographic attack on the algorithms used by the driver. Knowledge of how to do this is not available in the current non-classified literature, but it is theoretically possible that such an attack may exist. If this is a concern in your application, use /dev/random instead.
    Now let’s get back on our JDBC problem. Oracle JDBC 11g seems to use /dev/random by default, which causes usually no trouble on clients running with console access by a user, because his/her unpredictable :) actions will keep the entropy pool well-fed. But to make it usable on a headless server with a latently empty entropy pool, you should do several things, in descending security order (without warranty):
    1. Involve an audio entroy daemon like AED to gather noise from your datacenter with an open microphone, maybe combine it with a webcam noise collector like VED. Other sources are talking about “Cryptographic Randomness from Air Turbulence in Disk devices“. :)
    2. Use the Entropy Gathering Daemon to collect weaker entropy from randomness of userspace programs.
    3. Talk your JDBC into using /dev/urandom instead:
    -Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urandom"

  • Slow performance after installation of new OS-X

    I don't know if anyone else has been experiencing the same problem as me, but it seemed to occur after I installed the new OS-X.
    My MacBook Pro has gone stremely slow and it seems to be related to MAIL. I thought that the standard MAIL program that comes with MAC was the problem, so I installed Postbox and that seemed to work for a while (1 day or 2) and then it was the same. It's not just email programs that are slow, but all programs.
    Click and wait seconds (10, 20, 30 sec) just for a program to open. Moving between files is so slow. I feel like I'm using Windows again.
    I'm no expert, but when I look at MEMORY usage, out of 4GB I'm using 3.8GB. My Virtual Memory is 4.76GB. See screen shot below.
    I would apprecaite if anyone can help me resolve what the problem is.
    Thanks

    First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.

  • Slow performance in browser and OS -- EtreCheck Included

    Hello all, I'll keep this as short and detailed as possible.
    I bought a Macbook Pro for my wife two years ago, but the machine has been very slow since I got it for her.  I've always been a Windows guy myself and am very familiar with troubleshooting in a Windows environment.  I have almost no experience with OSX, however, and have no idea which applications would be needed for troubleshooting, etc.
    As my wife describes the issue, the OS itself is very slow.  She opens the laptop and a full twelve minutes pass before the system is fully responsive.  She has to keep pressing the power button for anything to work.  The screen will be greyed out and a loading bar will appear at the bottom.  It takes so long to load that the system falls asleep and she has to restart multiple times.
    I have noted that the browser is also slow.  My wife uses Safari almost all the time.  I installed Chrome to see how a fresh browser install would perform in OSX, and the speed was very slow as well.  An internet speed test at speedtest.net results in:
    Ping - 47ms
    Down Speed - 5.96 Mbps
    Up Speed - .89 Mbps
    Included below is the result from an Etrecheck run

    If the machine has always taken 12 minutes to start up, since it came out of the box, then it was and is defective. There's nothing to do in that case but to take it in for service.

  • 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.

  • Slow Performance On Mac Pro 12-Core

    Hello Everyone,
    I just recently purchased a 2012 Mac pro 12-Core and i have been getting unbelievabley slow performance with it. I am using Premiere Pro CS6 and it seems that the footage can sometimes get a bit laggy at times and not play back smoothly, sometimes rendering can take a bit of time as well. However here are the specs of my system:
    Mac Pro 12-Core 2.4GHz (2.67GHz Turbo Boost)
    40GB of Ram
    ATI 5770 Graphics Card
    1TB scratch disk (with a user on the drive that i can boot into)
    OCZ 120GB Vertex 3 SSD OS/APPS drive
    First question i would like to get answered once and for all.. Did i make a bad decision by purchasing a computer with such a slow clock speed (2.4GHz)?? I figured since The new editing software is switching to 64bit it shouldn't depend on clock speed anymore? (i just want to be sure that i purchased a more than capable machine) However i will be buying a Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB SSD Drive for Scratch within the month. (I dont have the budget to buy a Raid controller yet to utilize 6GB/s transfer speeds, so 1 Fast SSD drive will have to do for now)
    I should mention the current SSD drive im on right now only has 13GB remaining, would that affect performance? Also, my 1Tb media drive is filled up with CRAP from my previous computer (Migration transferred EVERYTHING to that drive, only 120GB remains) would that drive with the media im working with affect performance too? Also just as a test, i took some footage from my GoPro Hero 3 camera and put it on my SSD to see if that would eliminate the lag, but still lag was present in Premiere.. (the footage was in a crappy .M4P format, so that may have affected it, but I dont know)
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
    -Thanks in Advance!

    The new editing software is switching to 64bit it shouldn't depend on clock speed anymore?
    Wrong, clock speed is everything.
    I should mention the current SSD drive im on right now only has 13GB remaining, would that affect performance?
    No, not really.
    Also, my 1Tb media drive is filled up with CRAP from my previous computer (Migration transferred EVERYTHING to that drive, only 120GB remains) would that drive with the media im working with affect performance too?
    When fill rates go up, performance goes down. With almost 90% fill rate, the disk performs only at around 50% of a new disk.
    Two disks is absolute bare minimum, and your cores will constantly be waiting for the disks to read or write data, sitting idle most of the time.
    Also just as a test, i took some footage from my GoPro Hero 3 camera and put it on my SSD to see if that would eliminate the lag, but still lag was present in Premiere..
    GoPro material requires a very fast computer, which yours is not with the low clock speed, outdated E5620 CPU's, only two disks, and a non-CUDA capable video card.
    Take a look at the PPBM5 Benchmark and look at the system at rank # 854, which is a MacPro, very similar to your system, dual E5620, AMD video card, less memory but uses three disks.
    So, your system would be around the same rank as the one above, among the slowest 25% of all systems and something like 10 - 15 times slower than a fast system. You tax your system to the extreme with the GoPro Hero3 material, and the consequence is the slow performance you see.
    Sorry, not much you can do, other than get a new system. If you sell it now, it may get you a price, good enough to get a much faster Windows system and maybe even keep the change.  Simply said, you bought a MacPro for € 3.5 K, sell it for € 3 K, buy a PC for € 2.5 K that is around 5-6 times faster and your loss is recovered.
    However i will be buying a Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB SSD Drive for Scratch within the month
    What a pity the MacPro does not have SATA 6G ports, only SATA 3G, because then that SSD will run at almost half speed.

  • Win 2012 shared-nothing live migration slow performance

    Win 2012 shared-nothing live migration slow performance
    Hello,
    i have two standalone hyper-v servers - A) 2012 and  B) 2012 r2.
    I tried live migration on non-shared storage between them. The functionality is alright but performance is low. The copying take a long time with max 200 Mbps.
    I am not able to find the bottleneck. Network a disk performance seems to be good. It is 1Gbps network and when I tried simple copy paste the vhd file from A to B through cifs protocol, the speed was about almost full 1Gbps - it was nice and fast.
    Is it feature? I am not able reach full network performance with shared-nothing live migration.
    Thank you for reply
    sincerely
    Peter Weiss

    Hi,
    I don’t found the similar issue with Hyper-V, Does both of your hosts have the chipsets in the same family? Could you try to switch the three Live Migration Performance
    Option method then monitor again? Or It seems there may have some disk or file system performance issue, please try to update your RAID card firmware to the least version.
