This shouldn't be the case with 1.14+ and wasn't in my testing. Did you

If yes, can you run some simple systemtap scripts?


I did not upgrade from an older version. I experienced the problems with 
SSSD 1.14. I followed the steps in the performance tuning guide and 
moved the cache directory into RAM. After that I deleted the directory's 
content and restarted SSSD.

This shouldn't be the case with 1.14+ and wasn't in my testing. Did you
remove the cache (really remove, not just expire with sss_cache) after
you upgraded from 1.13 to 1.14?

Did you try all recommended steps or just few?

I think the biggest benefit came from moving the sssd cache into RAM.

btw even after the performance improvements we did in 1.14 we an issue
where even parsing the entries takes too long. What we did in 1.14 was
that if the entries didn't change compared to what is already in the
cache, then we skipped saving the full entry again just to bump the
timestamp. Making the parsing faster is planned for the next version.

(btw there was a bug where on upgrade, this new performance improvement
didn't take effect for objects that were already cached. Removing the
cache is a simple workaround and it's something we should fix soon in
the code..)

I doubt it had anything to do memcache_timeout.
I would say that restart of sssd helped. But it difficult to say
without log files. either sssd logs or at least /var/log/secure

It would be good to know more details. Restarting sssd is not a solution.


sssd_be consumed a lot of CPU and produced a lot of I/O in the sssd 
cache directory. After following 
https://jhrozek.wordpress.com/2015/08/19/performance-tuning-sssd-for-large-ipa-ad-trust-deployments/ 
the problems did nod reappear.

high CPU, IO operations ...

It would be good to know more details. Restarting sssd is not a solution.
