Slow Performance

[Roberto Pamfil]

Performance seems to be very bad at times. Sometimes it takes up to a minute to load a single page. At times it works instantly but too many times when I click on something, it attempts to load for a long time before it actually does the change. Rather annoying and we think we will drop it for now, at least until it grows more.

The tool has a lot of the functionality we like and need but for now it is back to spreadsheets.

Shame it's heavily based on Python.

Hi Roberto,

Can you tell me what pages have the issue and I can see about making it perform better?

Hi Sarah,

So it is no page specific or time specific. Just sometimes it just takes forever to load for no reason. I tried this in IE, Chrome and Firefox and they all had the same issues. Very random..

One thing though... this was happening when more than one person was using the portal at the same time.

Are you using the standard python in-built webserver? I recommend trying Apache or similar on a webserver and switching to postgresql instead of sqlite if you haven't already.

I'll have a look at performance and see if there are any areas of improvement. I don't notice any issues, but I'm the only one using mine!

If you get any particular pages which have issues let me know.
