dustin oberloh commented on LIBCLOUD-539:
-----------------------------------------
Mac OSX doesnt have a gai.conf. I did a bit of research and I see that mac
prefers v6 over v4 in a query that returns both. Which api.linode.com does. I
am going to try to figure out how to set a local entry that will resolve to the
right v4 address. If you would like me to show the output from any commands let
me know and I can put them in this bug.
> Libcloud linode driver is extremely slow due to v6 curl call

> Key: LIBCLOUD-539
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-539
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 0.14.0-beta3
> Environment: macOSX
> pycharm 2.7.3
> Reporter: dustin oberloh
> Priority: Critical
>
> When I attempt to use the Linode driver. Things like list_nodes and
> list_images are taking FOREVER. From what I understand, curl uses v6 by
> default if it can. So I tried a couple things:
> After turning debug on, I tested the vanilla output:
> curl -i -X GET -H 'Host: api.linode.com' -H 'X-LC-Request-ID: 4492557272' -H
> 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate' -H 'User-Agent: libcloud/0.14.1 (Linode) '
> --compress
> 'https://api.linode.com:443/?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxx&api_responseFormat=json&api_action=avail.distributions'
> And then the same curl except with the v4 flag:
> curl -4 -i -X GET -H 'Host: api.linode.com' -H 'X-LC-Request-ID: 4492557272'
> -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate' -H 'User-Agent: libcloud/0.14.1 (Linode) '
> --compress
> 'https://api.linode.com:443/?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxx&api_responseFormat=json&api_action=avail.distributions'
> There is a drastic difference in the time it takes to execute the call.
> Linode driver should use the -4 flag for all calls.
