Hi, All I'm im doing is reloading a web page that does a couple AJAX requests to my app engine app (Python) and I'm often observing insane latency:
2011-07-29 08:52:20.464 /api/user_info 200 10967ms 26cpu_ms 0kb Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:5.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0.1 10 seconds for a trivial OPTIONS request? class APIHandler(webapp.RequestHandler): def initialize(self, request, response): super(APIHandler, self).initialize(request, response) del self.response.headers['Content-Type'] def options(self): self.response.headers['Access-Control-Allow-Origin'] = '*' self.response.headers['Access-Control-Allow-Methods'] = 'POST, GET, OPTIONS' self.response.headers['Access-Control-Allow-Headers'] = 'X- Requested-With, If-Modified-Since, Content-Type, Cache-Control' + ', ' + VERSION_HEADER + ', ' + AUTHTOKEN_HEADER Note that I have 3 resident instances, nobody is using my app besides me right now, and no, the log does not report the start of a new instance when these very long requests happen. What's more incomprehensible is that I have App Stats running on the server and it reports really low-latency: (1) 2011-07-29 07:48:14.041 "GET /api/status" 200 real=5ms cpu=46ms api=0ms overhead=0ms (1 RPC) (2) 2011-07-29 07:48:13.427 "OPTIONS /api/status" 200 real=0ms cpu=1003ms api=0ms overhead=0ms (0 RPCs) (3) 2011-07-29 07:48:12.537 "GET /api/user_info" 401 real=23ms cpu=27ms api=12ms overhead=0ms (2 RPCs) (4) 2011-07-29 07:48:12.025 "OPTIONS /api/user_info" 200 real=0ms cpu=12ms api=0ms overhead=0ms (0 RPCs) Here are the same 4 requests in the dashboard log: 2011-07-29 08:48:14.053 /api/status 200 133ms 26cpu_ms 0kb Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:5.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/ 5.0.1 2011-07-29 08:48:13.434 /api/status 200 401ms 213cpu_ms 0kb Mozilla/ 5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:5.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/ 5.0.1 2011-07-29 08:48:12.572 /api/user_info 401 190ms 67cpu_ms 12api_cpu_ms 0kb Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:5.0.1) Gecko/ 20100101 Firefox/5.0.1 2011-07-29 08:48:12.068 /api/user_info 200 2446ms 35cpu_ms 0kb Mozilla/ 5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:5.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/ 5.0.1 As you can't see 5~23ms turned into 133~2446ms. What could possibly be happening? The latency clearly comes from outside my handler's code. Thanks for any help. - Pol -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
