I mentioned in another thread that I've seen a big performance slowdown after upgrading from Fedora Core 1 to Fedora Core 5.
I've finally tracked it down to an update to the Perl package. Check out the results of this simple performance test. The test: Start up a fresh copy of the server and click on Browse Artists (with 2425 artists). Time how long it takes the page to refresh. The results: *perl 5.8.8-4*: 4 seconds *perl 5.8.8-5*: 64 seconds Holy cow. Something changed in the update to 5.8.8-5 that causes it to run 16X slower in this test! There's a Fedora bug against this, but it doesn't look like they'll be doing much about it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196836 So I'll be sticking with the older package! -- dem Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dem's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2504 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25559 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
