Issue #16581 has been updated by David Carr.
I tried running the manifests on another machine (in this case, Puppet 3.0.0-rc6). Running puppet as a domain user on that machine had a "File" time for puppet_perms.pp of 1.37, which is substantially less than on the original machine, but still more than I would have expected. Looking at the callstacks I posted earlier, it looks like a fair amount of the time is spent in Puppet::Property#safe_insync?, almost all of which is in <Module::Puppet::Util::ADSI>#sid_for_account. It's a total of 64.25% of the time for the domain user, and 15.13% for the local user. Based on that, I think your analysis under Bug #16681 that the slowness if caused by SID resolution performance is accurate... and it may just be that on this particular machine, resolving against the domain is very slow (probably due to issues unrelated to Puppet, but impacting it nonetheless). ---------------------------------------- Bug #16581: Windows file permission management very slow https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16581#change-73712 Author: David Carr Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Josh Cooper Category: windows Target version: 2.7.20 Affected Puppet version: 2.7.6 Keywords: windows file permissions user group sid slow performance Branch: I'm trying to write some Puppet manifests that support both Darwin and Windows. So far, it's been going pretty well, but I noticed that my manifests were running much more slowly on Windows. I believe that the majority of the slow-down is caused by File resources with owner/group/mode specified. I'm able to reproduce a substantial performance difference between a manifest to create a single empty directory with/without permissions specified. Manifests and output from "puppet apply --debug --verbose --no-daemonize --summarize --color=false --onetime MANIFEST" attached. The machine I'm running these on is a Dell Latitude E6500 running Windows 7 64-bit with Puppet 3.0.0-rc7 installed. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
