Okay... So I removed reference to the bobbobase and the id. Instead I just output text, but otherwise it runs well. I've never counted my objects till now, but it's a nice test to really stress the server when you find out you have 1000+ objects being pulled from the root. Results: The testpage took about 3.5 minutes to load. It by itself takes all of the first processor relentlessly, leaving the second open. When a second request comes in, the second processor kicks in and it becomes more even 60%-30% across 1st and 2nd processor. The second page request takes about 8 seconds rather than a normal call of 8/10th sec. I'm not sure if I can be more explicit with other usefull information. One thing to mention though, I'm on Zope 233 with py152, since it seems snappier than py2. Was this test supposed to be for py2 and Z242? If so, I'll do a quick switcherooni and test again.

Ahaha... Keyword being method. Its one step closer to working now, but I get authorization errors against bobbobase_mod_time. I tried as superuser and owner/manager roles with no avail. Am I missing something?

Maybe you created the method in a subfolder without many peer objects? It should be created at the root. Paul Zwarts wrote:
Well, okay then. I get it. However, since it takes only 80% of 1 second to load the page, its difficult to access another page... LOL.
I've tried the reverse now. Pulling a page that does heavy SQL queries and then refreshing the speeTest page a few times. Adding some time fields, the page only takes .1 second more than before.
I also mention that I built my own mailing list app for our site, and it has run against 8000 emails, and still services me or other users on the site, even though the bulkmailer takes up to 30 minutes to run fully.
So I guess the result is the same. Solaris has something funny, whereas Linux does not.
But as per my first message, I don't think this test works properly because the second IN is never executed, so this dtml doesn't actually do anything to the server that would distract it or load it down.....

The output of the DTML method isn't important, but if you ran it and it took a while (> 5 seconds or so), but then at the same time it was running, you visited a page in the mgmt interface and that operation took .83 seconds, that's the number that's important.. that lets us know
that MP Linux systems aren't "freezing" like Solaris systems. However, if you ran this method, and you couldn't do anything on the system until
it finished, there would be a problem.

But, I don't quite understand the test. At least, what is the dtml doing? I tried it out and I get nothing on the page, except my header/footer stuff. The time reslut from the debug console reveals
.83
seconds, but that is because my interface is quite heavy on SQL and
CST.
Should I modify the code to something else? I suppose the first in-tag is to just create a loop, so can I use _.range() instead?
If the ZopeFind(this(), '', '', '',....) means its looking for '1' as
an
object, it doesn't work either even if I add a method called '1'. With some text in between, I see that the first <dtml-in> works only and
the
ZopeFind returns bunk.
I'm interested in this test, but I;m not techie enough to understand
the
control here.
<dtml-call logic> <dtml-var head> <dtml-var standard_html_header> start<br>
<dtml-in

1,1]"> a<br> <dtml-in "ZopeFind(this(), '', '', '', '', '' , '', '', '', 1)" sort=bobobase_modification_time reverse> b<br> <dtml-var bobobase_modification_time>, <dtml-var id><br>

</dtml-in> end<br> <dtml-var standard_html_footer>
Thanks for help, Paul Zwarts

This "hogging" behavior doesn't show up on a Linux 2.4.2 kernel,

I don't have a Solaris machine to test this on; can anyone else confirm the behavior on Solaris?
Solaris 8, Zope 2.4.1 compiled from source. Save the DTML as a method, 'view' it. Try and do something else on
the same
site .... No-go.
Damn.
