Issue #13244 has been updated by Oliver Hookins. Status changed from Needs More Information to Needs Decision
---------------------------------------- Bug #13244: Class and stage dependencies lead to expensive graph computation https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13244#change-59054 Author: Oliver Hookins Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.7 Keywords: Branch: It's an odd problem and I'm not 100% on the cause, but I'm throwing it out there in case someone knows for sure it has been fixed (or if it sounds like it could be a legitimate bug), as gathering repeatable data for testing may not be straightforward (it's intrinsically linked to our code which I can't release). We have three classes and three stages which seem to be playing a role: Classes: - common - yum::base - platform::users (has a 'require' on common) Stages: - common (contains the common and platform::users classes) - yum (contains the yum::base class) - main (contains everything else) The stage ordering is this: Stage['yum']->Stage['common']->Stage['main'] When this scenario is in place, we see an extremely long processing time on the client before any resources are run (perhaps 10 minutes). The run itself takes about 45 minutes. When we remove the require from platform::users to common, this problem goes away and the catalog run takes about 20 seconds. For some comparison, in the former case the extended resource graph output size is 11MB and in the latter about 800KB. I can't attach them right now for confidentiality reasons but if a test scenario can be generated of course I'll attach all output.
