I see the same problem: but only in my home network (in a different wireless network, with the very same computer, signing in seems to work reasonably fast).

The suggested fiddling with the MTU value hasn't fixed anything here. I discovered that erasing the cookies made it fast until the next cookie was set. You can reproduce it. I haven't had any problems with other sites except linkedin. So I wonder why a network stack should be changed because linkedin is unable to configure their service correctly. Believe it - it really doesn't work and I'm on Linux since 1996. And believe it, the Web isn't designed in a way to force people to deeply fiddle around in their network settings to make a web site work. I wonder what linkedin feature is causing that harm. Have you spied on xmlhttprequest and javascript to load and transmit things dynamically? Can we isolate the cookie that is causing the issue? -- linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug also affected me. But changing MTU to 1360 fixed it. I was surprised when it worked. I am guessing that HTTP is forwarded over some link with a smaller MTU and "Don't Fragment" set. You can ping the site with packets upto 1500 bytes. But sending HTTP with packets of more than 1400 bytes, gets no response at all, presumably they don't get through to their server.

Hi, Ubuntu Lucid x86_64 here. I experience a similar problem with all sites. No problems with Windows Vista on the same machine. It takes tens of seconds to connect to google (i got 6 Mbit/s cable connection). The problem in my case is in the ISP's NAT that works differently with Linuxes. The MTU value is 1500 in Windows and setting it to 1360 in Linux does not solve the problem for me. I was told that ISP has at least one more Linux behind that NAT with such a problem, but they don't care much because we're just Linux users. I didn't find differences between Windows and Linux IP settings. They are obtained with DHCP and look the same (IP, DNS, MTU and such). A couple of weeks ago the problem was in 40% (when i did ping -i 5 google.com) lost packets and errors when the network is under intensive usage by ISP clients. Now it is just too slow connection to an address all the time.

I just ran some tests on Karmic/9.10 and I really don't see a problem with linkedin.com. I tried accessing the site while connected via Ethernet and Wi-Fi and times seem comparable. I also compared results using the Chromium browser daily build and the FF times seemed comparable. Just to be clear, NM *does* allow MTU to be configured on a per- connection basis.

I believe this affects network-manager more than glibc, as network- manager itself should deal with MTU discovery and setting the right value for the network. That said, NetworkManager already has some amounts of logic to take care of that. I'm also marking it as Confirmed since so many are seeing this issue, and seeing how there is a workaround that seems to take care of the problem for pretty much everybody. To complete this bug, could you please provide the contents of /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases or /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases, if any? The contents of /etc/network/interfaces would also be good to have.

Same problem here. I'm running (K)Ubuntu 9.04, using D-Link router (model no. DSL-G624T), and Firofox 3.0.10. Pages with messages from group members load just fine, but if I want to access someone's profile, it takes forever until pages finally time out. I can't remember which version was available when I switched to Ubuntu last October, but I've always had this problem with LinkedIn. However, lately I've noticed that if I use Konqueror 4.2.2 pages load in the blink of an eye. Kind of annoying, for I prefer using Firefox. -- linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Two different computers behind one adsl, one running XP-pro and SuSE 9.3 other SuSE 10.0, now 11.1. Browsers: XP: IE, Linux-KDE: Firefox, Opera, Konqueror (all in different versions) and Lynx. Neither works. Stop firewall in adsl modem does not help. Neither stop Linux firewall. Not tried both. Did not find the config that Ian Steward mentioned in in modem nor linux. -- linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 314713] Re: linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only
I'm experiencing similar problems with LinkedIn on Ubuntu 9.04 and FireFox 3.0.10. Also happens with Opera on the same platform. When testing with other machines, Mac OSX 10.5 with FireFox 3.0.10 has the identical problem BUT if I run Safari, then all systems are GO. If I use Windows XP SP3 and FireFox 3.0.10, everything works fine. So, it seems to be something common between FireFox and Opera on Ubuntu and Mac. Problem doesn't manifest in any other system, even though they're all running over the same net connection (D-Link DSL 502T) Hope this helps. -- linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 314713] Re: linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only
I've had similar problems, as far as I can tell it's due to the following rule in the router's firewall config TCPMSS tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp flags:SYN,RST/SYN TCPMSS set 1360 I've had problems with this rule before, using a WiFi card with a small MTU. It was actually increasing the MSS and making it too big for the MTU. I'm sure the intention of the rule is to decrease the MSS only. Removing the rule with iptables -D fixes the LinkedIn problem. So far it doesn't seem to have broken anything else. Note that the rule will come back if the router is rebooted. -- linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 314713] Re: linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only
I have progress to report on this issue! The problem seems to be related to transparent proxying of https at my ISP. If I manually specify the proxy server in my browser (on a port other than port 80) everything works correctly. It may have something to do with the router or NAT who knows. But I don't get the problem under windows. I've contacted TPG about this issue also. Hopefully knowlege will grow. I think its safe to say it is not DNS related - I've tested that to death. -- linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

OK... just to complicate this further (or perhaps simplify it) I have now independently installed Arch linux with the latest KDEmod packages from chakra. I.e. I installed from the chakra live CD and then updated everything using pacman. I can report that linkedin seems to be working better for me (using konqeror in Arch) however embedded apps like boxnet still seem to be not loading. Firefox still the same - can't view contacts even.

[Bug 314713] Re: linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only
I think I agree it is something to do with the interaction between router and linux. I have now tried this with konqeror also. It is very interesting in that it has a different failure: It successfully loads linked in pages like my contacts but at some point starts getting addresses *wrong*. It starts for example trying to load google search results as if the links all pointed to google.com. So I still think there might be some DNS caching issue in this also. On my 8.10 machine, 32 bit OS, firefox, the simplest way to trigger this issue is to try and view my contacts. The page loads but the contacts don't - all I see is the spinning wheel. I've grabbed a wireshark trace of this and will have a look over it. So far I can see that the log tails with a lot of TCP retransmission requests from me to 64.74.98.80 (www.linkedin.com). These don't seem to be being answered.

I had the same problem (not with a ubuntu, but an old Mandriva) and the issue disapeared when I disable the router in my ADSL box ... So something linked to NAT. But I have to note that even with that NAT, it is working in windows. I will try to capture some wireshark traces.

the following comment makes this a non Firefox/Xul/Gecko bug: 2. have tried using opera - no improvement Opera doesnt use any of the above it uses QT libs Firefox has not released a QT version for mainstream use we have tried and it failed so we dropped that option from config. This is a site problem.

By way of an update on that... not running any dns caching (nscd, dnsmasq, pdnsd, bind9) disabled firefox's built in dns caching (http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-555-disabling-the-dns-cache-of-mozilla-firefox) manually specified the dns server (TPG .au) also tried name servers from opendns.com Not surprisingly this slows things down in general (so I assume its worked). However I still can't view my linkedin contacts list or invite new contacts. I can at least login now - but its certainly not a solution.

[Bug 314713] Re: linkedin very slow on Firefox Linux only
I'm having the same problem. ubuntu 8.10, fully updated (Apr 09). wired and wireless connections behave the same. Have had no response from linkedin. I have taken some additional "debugging" steps: 1. fully diabled ipv6 - no improvement 2. have tried using opera - no improvement 3. have tried using galeon - small improvement (?) 4. have tried specifying name servers manually - no improvement 5. have checked to make sure there is no local DNS caching... I'm not running a specific process to do this (no named) but perhaps something in gnome is doing this? network manager? LinkedIn has a help page suggesting flushing of the local dns cache as a solution to "slowness". This is my best lead.

I'm experiencing the same problem. Linkedin.com is incredibly slow. The home page loaded fine, but clicking 'Sign in' takes forever. Once I'm logged in, navigating around is works slowly, but if I edit some data and submit the form it often times out. The problem occurs in Firefox 3.0, Firefox 3.1, Opera 10.0.
