Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knew how to attack this? If say this script when i run it via the web as the only one running it - it then executes and displays the required information in 10 seconds. Now if 20 people or even say 10 invoke this perl program via the web at the same time or within a few seconds of each other then it splits the cpu usage between the 10 or 20 invokations of the perl program. Now where the problem hits is even though the script works in a timely fashion at near 90+ percent cpu availability when mulitple instances of it are invoked and it is only gettin 8 or 10 or 15 or even 20 % per invokation the execution time is enormous as much as 3 minutes to complete and display. Whats even worse is most people become impatiant and hit reload cause even more cpu splitting between the scripts slowing it down even more? Now how do you attack something like this? Example: 6:40pm up 8 days, 19:22, 1 user, load average: 2.52, 1.90, 1.76 79 processes: 72 sleeping, 7 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 96.0% user, 3.9% system, 0.0% nice, 0.0% idle Mem: 257408K av, 165968K used, 91440K free, 55132K shrd, 49504K buff Swap: 265528K av, 1996K used, 263532K free 69040K cached PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM CTIME COMMAND 16787 nobody 20 0 2584 2584 1188 R 20.0 1.0 0:01 prog1.pl 16786 nobody 20 0 2920 2920 1220 R 18.2 1.1 0:01 prog2.pl 16785 nobody 20 0 2560 2560 1220 R 18.0 0.9 0:01 prog3.pl 16791 nobody 20 0 2584 2584 1188 R 16.4 1.0 0:00 prog4.pl 16781 nobody 16 0 2464 2464 1220 R 15.8 0.9 0:05 prog5.pl Thanks, John [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Perl-Unix-Users mailing list.
