Hello- I'm using Scout to monitor a Rails app of mine. What I'm noticing is that all of the pages in the site take a fraction of a second to complete. This is totally acceptable. However, occasionally I'll have a request that takes 189 seconds to complete. It's very consistent. A request takes a fraction of a second 99% of the time and takes either 189 seconds or 3.5 seconds that last 1% of the time. Naturally, that 1% of the time is when clients, friends, family, etc. are viewing the site. The actual page that takes 189 or 3.5 seconds to process varies - sometimes it is the homepage, sometimes it is something like the About Us page.
My server setup is as follows. The server is a quad-core machine with 2GB of RAM running RHEL 5. I'm using Nginx as the proxy and mongrel_cluster running 15 mongrel instances. Other than that, I've got MySql, Sphix, and backgroundRB runnning. The server is under very low utilization, only getting a few hundred visitors a day and never consuming more than 1% of the processor and 50% of the memory. Does anyone have any ideas on how best to troubleshoot this?
