performance enhancements

Open katmai opened this issue 8 years ago • 7 comments

hi,

i have been playing with this for about 2 weeks now on a 12 cores xeon server with 64 gigs ram.

is there any way you could like improve the resource usage? when running commands like minicron server start or when i look under the usage this thing works like a pig. i got 2.5 gb ram used to manage some 30 cron jobs.

i really like the interface and stuff but could you optimize the thing a little bit better? the thing is i don't know if this is a ruby thing - i hate ruby but it would be nice if it didn't require a spaceship to run some cronjobs

thanks.

Is that 2.5 GB ram usage coming from the process that is running the server or the jobs themselves?

it's coming from the process running the server. i just looked now and it seems to be going up to 12 gigs. i got 64 gb ram on this server so it's not really causing issues right now, but 12 gb ram for a cron job manager is kinda eek. if i restart it, it will go down and start chewing up ram again, like Chrome. i just left it like this so we can debug or maybe improve w/e.

Does the memory usage steadily increase after a restart? It might be a memory leak as opposed to just general inefficiency.

dang, i missed your reply.

and yes, the memory usage increases slowly after a restart. i restarted it at 12gb 12 days ago, and now it's back at 10 gb once more and going up: 5160 root 20 0 10.486g 0.010t 5256 S 11.0 16.3 934:25.47 ruby

i am running centos 7.2 64bit.

rocking a good 13 gb ram used now:

5160 root 20 0 23.112g 0.022t 4844 S 7.0 36.4 2175:48 ruby went to 23 gb.

do you want to test anything or?

i was checking the db and i noticed that the interface was getting considerably sluggish as the job executions count went up - i had over 600 k and it was working like a pig. so i emptied that table and job_execution_outputs which was hitting 1.5 gb on 11 mil rows and now the thing is speedy
