Trac 0.11 so slow!!!!!

[deni]

Hi,
I've installed trac 0.11.4 and it is too slow, unusable!!!! It makes
around 15 seconds to load a page, more precisely all requests are
granted and the page is entirily visible but it seems that there is
something to wait and the load bar is completely full after 15
seconds.
I use trac with apache2 and fastcgi.
Is there a way to enhance performances? What can I do? Suggestions?

Thanks, in advance.

This is an example of bad performance

This the apache configuration for trac:

# Trac
Alias /trac/chrome/common /usr/share/trac/htdocs
<Directory "/usr/share/trac/htdocs">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

<LocationMatch "/trac/[^/]+/login">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Trac"
AuthUserFile /etc/buildix/htpasswd

Which tool does produce the statistics?
I would like to try the same to compare our values.
It seems, that serving the HTML is the time thief.
Maybe it's the fault of genshi?

Hi,
Any plug-in's? We tried one that added 5-10 seconds.

No, no plugins issues. However disabling the mod_deflate module of
apache the problem disappear!!! I don't know why but I think there are
problems with compression of css, chrome ... Although it's very useful
to compress data over the network. Anybody knows how to configure
apache properly (using also the mod_deflate module) for compression of
only certain types of data???

Thanks

i´m having the same problem with trac 0.11.

have you tried this?

Compress only a few types
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml

Yes, I've tried it but it doesn't work!!! For you, does it work? I'm
using trac without compression data yet now... Somebody else have the
same problem??????????

Hi All,

Can i know that how you configured in apache. It's in CGI or
mod_python option.

I also found trac very slow and after reading what you have written
about it I came up with a solution.

<Location /tracProj>
SetInputFilter None ## This line disable deflate module
only for this site. <---
SetHandler mod_python
PythonInterpreter main_interpreter
PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
PythonOption TracEnv /var/trac/proj
</Location>

Hope it helps.

Hi,

I drive two instances of trac 0.11.2.1 on ubuntu 8.04 with apache. One computer is a Intel Pentium D 2,8GHz Dual Core with  1 GB Ram, the other is a Pentium 4 2.00 GHz and 1 GB RAM. There are no such troubles.
For now i can't say if CGI or mod_python is running - how to check that?
On the other Hand, the trac db is a sqlite 3 and not realy big. Users are only a handfull too. All parameters related to performance how are yours?

My trac installation was very slow as well...
until I did the mentioned "SetInputFilter None"-trick! :)

I'm running Trac on Windows2000 Server/Apache2/mod_python.

Thanks a lot!

Could people having that issue also try the newly released Trac
0.11.5rc1 *without* that trick, to see if the underlying problem was fixed?

(see TracDownload#LatestReleaseCandidate)

I have exactly the same problem. I have tested it with Trac-0.11.4
and Trac-0.11.5rc2 - both versions behave poorly using fastcgi. A
couple of observations:

* This problem does not exist using the cgi script, only with fcgi
* On my system, the problem is resolved by disabling mod_deflate. It
is not resolved using the "SetInputFilter None" trick.

Me too!!!
I've tried to install the release candidates Trac-0.11.5rc1 and
Trac-0.11.5rc2, I used the "SetInputFilter None" trick but the problem
persists. The only (in my opinion bad solution) is to disable the
mod_deflate.
