Quite outside of the speed of RT, what database are you using as a back-end? How long has it been since you did some care and feeding of your database? How big are your tables? If you are using mysql or postgres have you used their tools to examine your database, especially the indexes and statistics? This may be an issue with indexes needing to be rebuilt, or asking the database to gather new statistics for the queries your are running.

Hi everyone,

I've raised this before, but we've had another look at it and still can't see how to improve things.

We put a lot of comments/replies in our tickets. Often there can be 50-100 entries in a ticket, mostly plain text. Loading such a ticket can take 10-20secs.

We don't have any slow queries - all the time seems to be in the code rendering the history of the ticket. We've had a go at stripping functions out of ShowHistory, ShowTransaction and ShowTransactionAttachmments but not had much success.

FWIW our RT runs on quad 3ghz Xeons with 8gb of ram.

I'd like to try and determine if we're just slow, or if this is just how long RT takes. Maybe perl is just slow.

Can anyone shed any light on how long it takes them to render long tickets in their systems? If you look at the page source it gives you a value e.g.

<span>Time to display: 24.996907</span>

Can anyone share some numbers from theirs for longer tickets? It would be really appreciated.


Thanks,

Justin
