[SOLVED] Netcfg@.service very slow...

Hi!
I was wondering why is [email protected] taking so long to load:
systemd-analyze blame
4206ms [email protected]
2220ms psd.service
685ms systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service
626ms systemd-vconsole-setup.service
252ms systemd-udevd.service
169ms systemd-remount-fs.service
65ms systemd-logind.service
35ms var-log.mount
29ms systemd-sysctl.service
22ms systemd-udev-trigger.service
12ms tmp.mount
5ms systemd-user-sessions.service
1ms sys-fs-fuse-connections.mount
I managed to get rid of consolekit, and i use a psd.timer that makes psd start 20sec from startup. So netcfg is the only thing is slowing my boot process.
The strangest thing is that networkmanager.service takes only 0.7s to load, and it seems very weird to me that network manager is faster then netcfg.
Here it is my "mynetwork" setup:
CONNECTION='wireless'
DESCRIPTION='A simple WPA encrypted wireless connection'
INTERFACE='wlan0'
SECURITY='wpa'
ESSID='my ESSID'
## Uncomment if the supplied ESSID is hexadecimal
#ESSID_TYPE='hex'
KEY='********************'
IP='dhcp'
# Uncomment this if your ssid is hidden
#HIDDEN=yes
I run
systemctl enable [email protected]
Network is working, so it's not a bug somewhere in netcfg, it is only SLOW. Really slow.
Thanks for any help!

Is 4.2secs really slow? I think it may just be kind of nitpicking since with systemd's parallelization it definitely would not boot four seconds faster if you did not enable it.
Oh i know...but networkmanager was really faster...is there a reason?
EDIT: with networkmanager, the overall
systemd-analyze
was 10s, while now is
systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 6769ms (kernel) + 7293ms (userspace) = 14063ms

*SOLVED* - 2D draw very slow, intel / fglrx Xorg driver

Hey all,
My very first support post to the forums
I have an issue on a few computers whereby the 2D drawing in X is very slow. This happens on my laptop with Intel vga and also on a desktop when using the proprietary fglrx driver. I did not have this problem a few months ago when using stable. At that time, I installed testing and discovered the problem, so I went back to stable. Some time later an update to Xorg came into stable and since then the problem is now in the that tree also.
I thought it might be the new GEM stuff for the Intel driver, so I installed the 2.6.28 kernel when it was released - it did not solve the problem. Installing an NVIDIA card into the desktop box does solves the problem (can't do that for my laptop!). Because it's happening with the intel and fglrx drivers, but not with NVIDIA, I think it might be a problem with some Xorg component that the NVIDIA driver performs itself? But I've no idea..
Essentially, I'm using wmii as my desktop, which is a tiled window manager. Creating a new terminal window, switching between them and closing them all is very slow (taking a second or more), when it should be pretty much instantaneous.
When doing these things, Xorg takes up 90% CPU usage. By comparison, on the same laptop under Debian it only uses 10% CPU (and the problem does not exist).
I have created two desktop screencasts of what I mean. In the videos I am quickly opening a bunch of xterms and then later holding down 'switch between terminals', then holding down 'close terminal'. I run htop to show the CPU usage.
Arch, 4.9 MB, OGV - http://christophersmart.com/videos/archlinux-wmii.ogv
Debian, 5.7 MB, OGV- http://christophersmart.com/videos/debian-wmii.ogv
Any ideas?
Thanks a bunch!
Chris
Edit: FYI, the desktop has an Intel Core2 CPU with 8GB RAM and 2 x WD Raptor drives in RAID 0. With an ATI card, wmii is unusable.

Well I first discovered the problem with the 'intel' driver and later when I set up Arch Linux on a desktop I was met with the same issue. I think it might be some part of Xorg that they both share, but it's not just a problem with the catalyst driver.. unfortunately

[SOLVED] Netcfg.service not starting with systemd

I have net-auto-wireless.service enabled and working, but when I try to start netcfg.service, it gives the error:
Job for netcfg.service failed. See 'systemctl status netcfg.service' and 'journalctl' for details.
"systemctl status netcfg.service" gives me:
netcfg.service - Netcfg multi-profile daemon

Am I missing something in setting it up? I followed the netcfg wiki as closely as I could.

Good call, I changed it from "last", to the profile I use in /etc/network.d that net-auto-wireless autoconnects to. It failed for a different reason after changing the NETWORKS in /etc/conf.d/netcfg, because net-auto-wireless was still running.
But it works now, thanks for the help!
I wanted to use netcfg instead of net-auto-wireless because I was unable to find a suitable way to connect to available networks that is non-graphical, and I felt like giving netcfg a try and seeing if it's any easier than running "systemctl restart net-auto-wireless.service" every time I want to reconnect.
Although my question for this thread is solved, is there any way to have netcfg autoconnect to profiles once I am within range?

[SOLVED] Network speed very slow, no apparent reason

Hello, recently I switched from Windows 7 RC1 to Arch on my home machine (I have used Gentoo, Ubuntu, and Fedora 10 on the same machine in the past), and for some reason network speed is very slow.
I have Verizon's 20mbit/5mbit package, and I have always gotten that speed.
Using speedtest.net and 100mb.test from cachefly on multiple computers I have come to the conclusion that it is infact my Arch install that is causing the problem:
- All other machines on my network are getting 20/5 (both wired and wireless)
- I ran a speedtest from 2 other machines using the ethernet cable that this PC is on. Again, full 20/5.
- scp transfer of 100mb.test from this PC -> other Arch box: ~2.8MB/s.
- scp transfer of 100mb.test from other Arch box -> this PC: ~2.8MB/s.
- scp transfer of 100mb.test from this PC -> UK VPS (100mbit line): ~539KB/s
- scp transfer of 100mb.test from UK VPS -> this PC: ~76KB/s
- scp transfer of 100mb.test from this PC -> Chicago Server (dual gbit lines): ~563KB/s
- scp transfer of 100mb.test from Chicago Server -> this PC: ~91KB/s
speedtest.net result:
Upload speed seems to be unaffected.
I have tried disabling TCP window scaling, and appending my hostname to /etc/hosts.
What is weird though is that the other Arch box has an identical network config, I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work.
My NIC is an integrated Realtek something, I can get the exact model if needed.
Last edited by whipsch (2009-06-05 18:29:21)

Hi, whipsch
Can you try ethtool to see if your ethernet card is actually negociating and using a 100Mb full duplex link on your LAN ? If not you can try to force the link parameter with ethtool. Also maybe the driver of your NIc has options related to link negociation.
Hope this helps,
JF

[SOLVED] Pacman is very slow inside VirtualBox

Hello everyone, I've used Arch Linux for a while now and I never had any serious issue. I've been testing Arch inside VirtualBox recently and it installs fine and all that but when I try to update the system, updating repos is very slow, once the repos are up-to-date, pacman offers the latest packages to download very fast and waits for me to press 'y'. Once I do press 'y', it downloads the packages very slow.
I have a 15 Mbps connection (goes up to 30
Mbps when bandwidth os available).
I'm using a mirror close to
My state NY (rit, umoss, vt, or even gatech).
The /etc/rc.conf and /etc/hosts have the same hostname.
I've tried to test in VMware server but there was a problem with vmware. Fedora 13 also updates really slow as well. Debian and Ubuntu don't have a problem.
I have Arch on my flash drive and I booted it up on my machine and pacman works much faster when not inside the VM. The weird thing is that when I was using and older version of VirtualBox, everything was working great, which makes me think that it's a Virtualbox but.. but then why is Debian working fine but Fedora and Arch slow?
Any suggestions?
Last edited by Cows (2010-08-26 05:34:49)

Alright, since no one has posted, I'm going to assume no one knows how to fix this yet.
I've been messing around for the last couple of days, and I was looking into the network options that VirtualBox has.
From all the options:
NAT
Bridged Networking
Internal Networking
Host-Only Networking
NAT and Bridged Networking seem to make the most sense, but the problem was that NAT requests a new IP from the router and uses it's own driver to do the networking, I saw this as that the VirtualBox NAT driver might be messing up how the traffic flows (including the speed) in Arch Linux and possibly in Linux in general.
For Bridged Networking, the VM uses the physical adapter of the host, and that shot me right away. I told myself, why use an intermediate driver to communicate with the router if I can use the physical adapter directly and pull information faster. At the point my statement was theoretical, but once I booted up Arch Linux and tried it... the slowness was gone. Pacman now updates repos and downloads packages much faster. Fedora 13 in the VM also works much faster as well, not only for updating repos and downloading packages, but also for web browsing within the VM.
I think that there might either be a bug or performance issue that's affecting the NAT driver in VirtualBox version 3.2.8 r64453, because you do recall I said that I was using the NAT driver in an older version of VirtualBox and it wasn't slow.
I hope this can help someone in the future.
EDIT: Check this page about Networking options in VirtualBox and what they do:

[SOLVED] Web navigation very slow

I've installed the last version of ArchLinux (archlinux-2009.02-ftp-i686.iso) and the web navigation is very slow. Loading Google's home page in Windows is instantaneous but in Linux it takes about 9 seconds. And the rest of web pages are the same. I've noticed that, when loading a web page, it takes a lot of time in "Looking up www.google.es..." so I guess that it is a networking problem. I've tried several web browser with the same result.
I've tried several changes which I found in Internet:
a) According to http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=61408:
- I included the host name in /etc/hosts
- I deactivated IPv6 in /etc/modprobe.conf with "alias net-pf-10 off"
b) According to http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Qui … ux_Install:
- In /etc/rc.conf, I updated:
gateway="default gw 192.168.1.1"
ROUTES=(gateway)
because my router is in 192.168.1.1 and the page recommended to remove the ! in ROUTES=(!gateway)
- I added /etc/resolv.conf.head:
nameserver 192.168.1.1
These changes improved a bit the performance but I am not satisfied yet. It takes a lot of time to retrieve the 1st page from a server (however, afterwards, the navigation in that server is normal). It looks like there is no cache for DNS names.
Any hint?
Thank you in advance

Glad you found it! One of the first things I do when setting up a system behind the typical soho router, is to put either the isp's primary and alternate dns addresses into the router itself. (I actually prefer OpenDNS addresses - scroll to the bottom right of their web page)
In days of old when soho routers didn't always follow internet rfq's, and seemed to have their internal dns routines tuned for Windows / Mac, doing this helped bypass that nonsense. Now the *nix boxes had no problems with slow dns lookups, and the windows/mac boxes were just fine as well. I suppose soho routers are better these days, but I still do this.

[SOLVED] Netcfg.service always failing.

Hello,
Since systemd got pushed down with an update I decided to jump the ship (even though roughly a week ago I tried it and decided to wait a while, the irony ) With the help of my previous topic and the knowledge that e4rat does work with systemd, I got everything working and it's working faster than ever too. Win/win if you ask me.
There's only one issue: the netcfg.service that I have enabled with systemctl enable netcfg.service always fail on boot and I have to manually connect later. I don't know why it fails, so I hope you can help me tracking the issue.
This is the output of systemctl status netcfg.service right after booting:

Print service very slow to forward the job...

Hi,
On 10.5.1 server, in the system preferences, i created a new printer in LPD (Fiery Z3000).
Then i started the print services ans published this new printer in "Bonjour".
All users can now create this new printer shared by leopard server and print through this serveur but i wonder why the 10.5.1 server keep the jobs a very long time (5-10 mn) before sending it on the right printer.
Do you know how i can setup Leopard server to print the job immediatly when it receives the PostScript file ?
Thank you
Marc

hi,
leopard server SHOULD relay the printing job to the printer immediately (at least it does so on my network). have you seen any log entries in the server admin for Printing or for DNS? Is DNS setup correctly for your printer (lookup and reverse lookup go to the same hostname/address?)?
br,

[SOLVED] systemd services load slow/fail after forcing package install

This is more of a PSA for those coming across this issue in the future. I think people should do more of these.
I recently had problems installing packages where pacman told me several files already existed in the filesystem. This happened when I tried to install an individual official package, not a full system upgrade, so I couldn't find any relevant posts.
I tried to --force install the package, thereby rewriting all such files. But I noticed the next time I rebooted and logged into my system, my Cinnamon session would load extremely slowly (~2 mins) and I had several failed services.
Symptoms of the problem included:
- non-root partitions not mounted on boot
- users and groups added after initial system install were gone (including sudo)
- difficulty connecting to networks
- trying to start/restart services resulted in a Polkit-related error and a timeout
So after a while I found this post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151915
It suggested that the polkit-related user and group were missing and I should check my /var/log/pacman.log around the time of my force installation, which I did. This revealed pacman overwrote several files in /etc including fstab, hosts, passwd, shadow and group.
Luckily pacman backed up all those files under the suffix *.pacorig so I by renaming the backups and rebooting I was thankfully able to return my system to normal.

I have another example of rc.local which is mainly about configuring power saving etc etc on a netbook
hdparm -B254 /dev/sda
grep -q '0' /sys/class/power_supply/ADP1/online && P="powersave" || P="ondemand"

what is the systemd way of doing this sort of thing?
Also where should local units be put so that they can be enabled/disabled etc. If I put them in /usr/lib/systemd/system won't they interfere with pacman?

Java Web Service very slow from Flex when not local

I have a jaxws web service that I am using as the interface layer to a database that I call from a Flex application. All was working well when I was referencing the service from localhost, but as soon as I deployed a version to test against (running on AWS EBS) the service calls dropped to several minutes.
To remove all external factors I could think of, I created a test service, which simply returns a list of 5 strings, therefore there is no DB connection issue and there are no complex objects to be interpreted. I still get exactly the same behaviour, the call is fast when running locally, but an absolute dog deployed.
If I use a web browser to retrieve the wsdl / xsd locally or remotely, they return immediately. If I use soapUI to execute the call both local and remote instances return in less than 500ms.
Using the Network Monitor, the wsdl takes a few hundred milliseconds to be retrieved, the xsd reference however, takes one minute and sometime fails altogether, ditto with the final call for data retrieval. There is no activity on the server at this time.
The Request/Response times in Network monitor indicate that when the calls are made they are taking no more than 1 second to return, but there is exactly one minute between the wsdl retrieval and xsd call, similarly there is exatly one minute between xsd retrieval and data retrieval.
Any ideas?

Hi, I'm not sure I can post my application due to company privacy issues... I'll look into that.
Note that if I execute the function from the test view of the data service (a logical data service) it responds in a reasonable amount of time - it's only when I call the same method through a web service that was generated from the data service taht I have a problem.. it consistently takes around 30 seconds +- 3 seconds.
Your last question... uhh yes... the web service/data service returns a summary of a person which does include address and contact info.
Let me see about attaching the application - I'm thinking the answer will be no, however... is it possible for you to help without having the code? Hopefully the above information helped.

Report with Subreport very slow from SharePoint

HI,
I have a report with a sub-report that runs in about 9 seconds from my PC using the Report Designer with SQL Server 2008R2.
When I run the deployed report from SharePoint it takes 4 minutes. If I remove the sub-report it again runs fine from SharePoint.
The sub-report is pretty simple and links to the main report using 3 parameters.
What would cause this?
Any ideas would be appreciated.

[Solved] Netcfg switches between interfaces

Hello,
I switched to netcfg, to get a pure systemd install.
How ever, sometimes the netcfg can't bring up the interface even though it used that interface before.
It's like netcfg are switching between what interface it can use. Sometimes it's eth0 other times eth1.
So when I boot and don't have any network connection, I change the config files to use the other interface (ex. eth1) and netcfg can connect.
How can this be?

Data Services Designer - Very Slow on VPN

Hello,
Any idea why Data Services Designer is very slow and many a times goes into Not Responding state. I'm using this client tool to connect to the Data Services Repository + Servers via VPN.
It takes few minutes to load the jobs or to save the changes. Some times hangs.
Wanted to know if anyone is facing similar issues, and any workaround/setup changes to eliminate these delays...
Regards,
Madan
Edited by: Madan Mohan Reddy Zollu on Mar 12, 2010 9:24 AM

Data Services Designer is communicating with the repo (to store/retrieve objects) and the jobserver (to execute jobs and get status/log files) so if there is a slow network connection, response time in the Designer could become problematic.
One way to solve this is use CITRIX or terminal services to have your Designer close to the database and only screens are send over the slow connection. In the Windows installation guide there is a chapter that documents how to setupDesigner in a (multi-user) Citrix environment.

Very Slow Broadband and Poor Customer Service

Hi,
Since April we have been having issues with our broadband line dropping the connection and terribly slow speed (around 0.4Mbs). We have had 3 engineer visits changing the master socket, home hub, filter and even work done out in the road. Each one has supposedly 'fixed' the problem, only for it to return to the very slow speeds within a week or so.
Our fourth engineer visit was booked for this morning, and the engineer failed to arrive. I received a phone call to say BT needed to re-arrange the appointment as the reason the engineer hadn't arrived was because BT had decided that it needed to be a 'multi services' engineer not a 'external' engineer.
I didn't even get an apology when I pointed out that I'd taken half a day off work to wait for the engineer when I could have been notified that the visit had been cancelled. Unfortunately we got cut off before I could re arrange the appointment so I called back, only to be told by the next person that in fact the reason the engineer hadn't attended was because of a BT OpenReach outage. After re-arranging the engineer visit I've now been sent 2 confirmation texts one to say they will be coming on Friday, one to say they will be coming on Monday. Hence another 10 minutes of my day calling to confirm when they would actually be attending.
I have also been incorrectly charged the £129.99 Engineer Home Improvement Charge as a result of the 2nd engineer visit due to an ‘admin error’. This was refunded to my account following 3 phone calls (one to ask why the money had been credited to my BT bill when I'd specifically asked for it to be returned to my bank account) but it caused me to go overdrawn in the process incurring bank charges.
I have raised 2 complaints, but no-one has contacted me concerning them (now 2 weeks and counting). When I finally lost it and called to cancel the contract I was told that as I was still in my minimum term I would have to pay £208 for the pleasure. My counter argument that for a total 3 months BT have not been providing the service we’re paying for seemed to fall on deaf ears.
I don't run a business, but I'm pretty sure this is not how to do it...
If anyone has any help/advice it would be greatly appreciated.

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 post the adsl stats from your router you may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or if HH4/5 then go to troubleshooting then logs and you are looking for 2 line together when hub last connected to internet and they will show your connection speed and noise margin or if netgear enter 192.168.0.1). Then 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

Look at Steven Chan's JVM tuning blog:
http://blogs.oracle.com/schan/2007/03/01#a1258
Apply ATG.H RUP 4. Have about 1 oacore JVM per 100 self service users. Upgrade to the latest 1.5.0_10 JDK for the middle tier if you have not already.

[SOLVED] Netcfg@.service very slow...
