I'm beginning to think this is just the Web UI itself instead of 389
although it is really difficult to tell. I've poured over the debug
logs and didn't see anything that caused me concern.

It's certainly usable, but I just got really spoiled by the
unbelievable quickness of 2.1.3. When your release notes indicate it
should be faster, what are you comparing it to? Maybe this only
happens with upgraded instances and not fresh installs.



It is always possible something didn't get upgraded properly but I've
done
2.1.3 -> 2.2.0 upgrades and haven't seen this. When we say something is
faster we're always referring to the previous version (or versions).


Maybe I was just lucky with 2.1.3. On a first load it might take some
time to load the "frame" as I call it. But the data would load almost
instantaneously from there (certainly no more than 1 s) as you moved
from page to page. Here, even if I return to the same page, the system
acts as if the data is begin fetched for the very first time as it is
no faster than the first load. Maybe that is significant to the
problem?


I think the culprit is Web UI paging capabilities introduced in 2.2. With
lot of users, responses might grow in size. You can check their size and
duration in browser developers tools. I suggest chrome/chromium - press F12
and choose 'network' tab.

This new feature can't be disabled in configuration. To test if the slowdown
is done by paging you can (at own risk) replace line
/usr/share/ipa/ui/facet.js:538

that.pagination = spec.pagination === undefined ? true : spec.pagination;

with:

that.pagination = false;

Note: It will break some other parts of the UI - so for testing only.

I've made the substitution in the code (was line 507 for me-do I have
a different version?). Looking at the time chart in Chrome I see that
the bulk of the time is for /ipa/session waiting. Would "waiting" mean
waiting for the directory server or memcached?

Actually neither, it means waiting for a response from the web server (technically it's making an RPC call via HTTP Ajax). The RPC call needs to go through the web server, memcached, and typically will invoke one or more directory server queries, and run a bunch of Python to massage everything before the RPC returns with the result.

It doesn't look like you've got much difference in times between with pagination on and pagination off. I don't know the pagination code but I suspect it's run after the RPC call returns so the RPC timing is not telling us much with respect to that.

Waiting for up to 3 seconds for an RPC call does seem on the high side. Do you have a lot of LDAP data?

But really, unless we get timing results for each component we're grasping at straws :-(


Here's a portion of the initial load of the Users page:
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 33.94KB 33.10KB 1.57s 1.47s 96ms (1.37s waiting)
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 568.09KB 564.36KB 3.92s 2.95s 963ms (2.85s waiting)
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 556.94KB 553.40KB 3.78s 2.94s 836ms (2.83s waiting)
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 46.93KB 46.38KB 1.87s 1.71s (1.60s waiting)

Now, with the pagination turned back on:
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 33.94KB 33.10KB 1.58s 1.48s 100ms (1.38s waiting)
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365

json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 556.94KB 553.40KB 3.84s 2.99s 855ms (2.88s waiting)
json/ipa/session POST 200 Success application/json jquery.js:7365
Script 46.93KB 46.38KB 1.52s 1.51s (1.40s waiting)
