Hi Bram,
Many thanks for this (and for your previous response to my initial questions
and the link to the extended analysis for my repo) ☺

Just to confirm that this looks much better now – it is now showing the correct
Item count for our repository ☺

Thanks again for sending me a link to the extended analysis for our repository
– it all came back looking OK, so that’s nice ☺

And I can confirm that this is also now looking much better from here – our
response time is now showing as around 300ms (down from 2000ms), so that is
also nice to see ☺
Thanks again,
Mike

Hi,
short update after rolling out a few changes directly on
http://dspacecheck-atmire.rhcloud.com/
1. Discrepancy in item count
This should now be fixed. If anyone finds other discrepancies, please let me
know.
2. Extended analysis emails
Emails are still broken, but after entering your email address you will
immediately get the link to the extended analysis in the webUI as a temporary
workaround.
3. Sense and nonsense of my repository speed measurements
Found that my measurement was actually measuring more than just ONE page
request. Changed this so you should get considerably lower response time
reports now.
best regards,
Bram

Hi Michael,
thanks for your feedback on the prototype of this new tool:
1. Discrepancy in item count
Thanks for reporting this, as it will help me debugging. The script retrieves
the item count from the browse-title
page<http://dspace.stir.ac.uk/browse?type=title>, parsing it from the string
"Showing results 1 to 20 of 8509".
Will need to figure out why this is currently not working on your repo.
2. Extended analysis emails
All outgoing emails are broken since earlier this month. I was happily using
Gmail SMTP for this, but it is now rejecting the emails. I will need to make
gmail happy again or move off to a different email provider.
In the meanwhile, I'll send you a personal email with the link that directs you
to the extended analysis of your repository.
3. Sense and nonsense of my repository speed measurements
I need to get a better speed measurement in place and include in the
description that the app currently runs on the redhat openshift cloud in the US.
This means the measurement is obviously biased towards US repositories and will
partially explain why you get a worse result for a repository based in the UK.
For me personally, browsing here from my couch in Belgium, one of the fastest /
"snappiest" repositories is CADAIR:
http://cadair.aber.ac.uk/dspace/
Just clicking around, yours feels *very* fast as well Michael, so I wouldn't
worry about the responsetime reported by my blunt instrument.
Anyhow, if you're interested in this type of analysis, I would recommend to
hook up your repository to New Relic ( http://newrelic.com/ ) that has awesome
and detailed reports and monitoring.
best regards,
Bram

Having just upgraded to v4.1 and done my best to carry out SEO, I thought I'd
have a look at this out of curiosity and have a couple of questions:
- the Itemcount for our repository shows as 7536 items, but the actual number
of items in our repository is 8496 - any ideas where the discrepancy is
creeping in? The sitemap referenced from our robots.txt lists 8626 objects
(which includes Items along with Community and Collection Homepages) so I don't
think it is the case that the Itemcount is being (correctly?) generated from
the sitemap referenced in robots.txt (or is it?!) . . . .
- I wanted to see the Extended Analysis but it is asking for an email address
with the same domain as our repository - as our repository is
dspace.stir.ac.uk<http://dspace.stir.ac.uk> I thought it would be OK with
michael.wh...@stir.ac.uk<mailto:michael.wh...@stir.ac.uk> but I've not received
anything as yet (and the email didn't appear to have been Junked either) -
should I have received anything, or is that email domain not acceptable?
- the response time for the homepage of my repository is generally being
reported at around 2000 milliseconds (I tried it a few times :-)), but the text
on that page says some DSpace sites can serve pages in under 100ms:
"The faster your site is, the better. Some DSpaces can serve pages under 100ms.
If you experience substantially slower loading times you may need to optimize."
I didn't think of our repository as slow, but should I (i.e. does 2000
milliseconds constitute a "substantially slower loading time")? And if so, any
thoughts why our repository is 20 times slower than the potential value noted
on that page (yes, I appreciate this is "why is my bit of string longer than
yours" type question ;-) )? Perhaps it is just a "geographical" issue (I'm
guessing the analysis is being done stateside, so repositories on this side of
the pond might expect longer response times?)? Or maybe, in certain
configurations, DSpace just runs faster/slower (e.g. we are using JSPUI with
Apache in front of Tomcat along with Postgres, all on the same Virtual Linux
box) . . . ? And, if relevant, what is the optimization that is being alluded
to in the text on that page?
Thanks in advance for any insights anyone might have.
Cheers,
Mike
