[Bug 1036622] Re: Slow NIS performance with programs such as 'finger'
Are you using finger with the -m option and the username? That's way much faster since it doesn't strcmp all of the entries. Try ltrace finger -m userid compared to ltrace finger searchstring -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036622 Title: Slow NIS performance with programs such as 'finger' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1036622/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1036622] Re: Slow NIS performance with programs such as 'finger'
Well, it is not like I use NIS at home all by myself :p if Ubuntu wont support it, just remove it from distribution then. So it would make the decision of which distro to use in large organisations easier. I checked the packets using tcpdump limited to the NIS server. Ubuntu had 24k lines in the output file Fedora had 2.4k lines in the output file Fedora was accessing port 767 and accessed an additional UDP port 770 and sometimes 938 on the server... while Ubuntu was just accessing 767 only so many more times... I tried disabling iptables on ubuntu altogether and still the results are same. It is just that I am getting the correct info as well and finger seems to be working. I am not sure what might be timing out. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036622 Title: Slow NIS performance with programs such as 'finger' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1036622/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1036622] Re: Slow NIS performance with programs such as 'finger'
I'm not sure how much help you're going to get on this issue since only a small proportion of users use NIS. Five seconds sounds like some kind of timeout to me. Can you use tcpdump to see if there's anything obvious that pops out? ** Changed in: nis (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036622 Title: Slow NIS performance with programs such as 'finger' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1036622/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
