Title: Proxy log viewer extremely slow, takes 8 minutes to display logs! Post by: ttucker on Wednesday 22 April 2009, 03:52:50 am I just setup a new machine with Endian Firewall 2.2 RC3.
Machine is Pentium 4, 1.7 Ghz, 2GB ram, 2-40GB hd in raid array. Everything works, but the proxy logs take up to 8 minutes to show on screen. Anyone have any suggestions?

With 400 users, log takes about 30 seconds or less to load. It looks like you might need a faster processor.
SSH in to your Endian and run the "top" command. Watch to see what's going on while you load the proxy logs page. On mine, logs_proxy.cgi eats 85% to 90+% of the CPU cycles until the proxy logs loads. Make sure to watch it before and after the proxy logs page to see what else might be eating your CPU. Now, I did have to turn off Intrusion Detection System (Snort) because that was eating a lot of my CPU all the time. When IDS was on, the proxy logs took around 1 to 2 minutes to load. That's too slow for me and I don't like having to wait that long. Let us know what your results are! Marc |
