[all game worlds] General Performance Issues

[EN] Today's patch also included another batch of small performance tweaks. Please let us know whether performance changes for you...no matter which direction.

[DE] Der heutige Patch enthielt auch wieder ein paar kleinere Performance-Optimierungen. Bitte lasst uns wissen ob sich die Performance für euch verändert hat...egal in welche Richtung.

Aspern has quickly fallen behind by 12 minutes and growing. :( Sorry.

I will add that it seems to be locked on "Flight Instancing", so if that's part of this new system, someone could be overloading it.

That's "just" a bug and not performance related. Looking into it.

Gatow hat immer wieder ca. 2 min Rückstand

Das ist soweit ok. 2 Minuten sind nicht wirklich "Rückstand". Viel interessanter ist, ob das Spiel für Spieler flüssig läuft. Denn das sollte es nach Möglichkeit immer, egal ob die Simulation im Rückstand ist oder nicht.

Stapleton hat einen Backlog von ca. 30 Minuten und die Reaktionszeit ist z.T. extrem lange

Stapleton hat einen Backlog von ca. 30 Minuten und die Reaktionszeit ist z.T. extrem lange

Das ist bekannt. Aspern und Stapleton teilen sich eine physische Maschine und haben sich gegenseitig etwas runtergezogen durch ihr Backlog. Sollte besser werden sobald beide wieder auf dem aktuellen Stand sind.

Stapleton has been sluggish for me basically since the spring cleaning in April, with very few exceptions. :angry: Today was particularly annoying with long lags. This applies to all write operations, not so much to read operations.

N.B.: Large holding with several thousand planes.

Stapleton ist für mich überhaupt nicht mehr erreichbar, seit ca. 20 Minuten. Zum Backlog kann ich da naturgemäß nichts sagen.

naja immer wenn es Rückstand hat geht es extrem langsam

Sorry to say, but Aspern is extremely slow again (only 1 minute backlog), I find it very frustrating to do flight sheduling or route management... Is the hardware still the problem on this server?

i was scheduling some flights at gatow and again i would like to share some observations:

some operations went fast, some took some more seconds.

Everytime it took more than a second i watched the status page and i was surprised to see several times a green status pages with the next operation some seconds ahead.

While the site with the scheduling operation was still loading, i could load a fleet overview and confirm (by maintenance ratio shown) : the operation was already completed. Nevertheless it took more than 10 seconds to load the site, confirming the operation, status page all green.

Thank you for the elaborate analysis. Since you were scheduling flights, it was the aircraft page that took so long to load?

This is the same on Devau. Scheduling takes very long. Each step is slow.

The behavior described by andreamilano does indeed sound a bit strange. I'll add some debug code later today and apply a small patch to Gatow to figure out why this happens.

I have applied a small patch to gatow to display a few measurements about the execution times of writing operations.

So when you, for example, apply new schedule settings, something like this will show up in the footer:

stats (i/e/o/t): 1/18/0/19

If your execution times feel longer than they should, please post these figures here. Since I can't reproduce most of the performance issues in vitro, this will help me to gather some insights. 

Here's mine, took ages when setting up a new flight.

stats (i/e/o/t): 0/48717/0/48717

and

stats (i/e/o/t): 0/17204/0/17204

Thanks, looks like what I expected, but please keep them coming.

Aspern was running very well this morning (around 8:30 AM till I don't remember, sorry). Is there a chance that maybe in the evening (i.e. around 6:37 PM) more players are active (or more traffic in general)? Because now it takes quite some time to check my route management and flight scheduling. I'm no expert in all this, just got me thinking, because in the morning planning was - for the first time in a long time - fun again. Sorry if this is not helping at all :) .
