Details

I'm trying to use sm-selenium01 today and it's unbearably slow. Like, click something wait 30 seconds kind of slow. If I recall, this is on a shared VM - can we make sure that box isn't overloaded? It claims to be a 3ghz CPU (doesn't feel like it?), and a gig of RAM which seems alright. I get the feeling the disk i/o is the problem, but don't have a way to prove that. How hard is it to make this faster?
phong, I don't see this in inventory. Is it a VM that could be moved to faster storage?

I'm pretty sure it's disk I/O. I tried installing vim and after 35 minutes of it churning I left and came back a couple hours later and it was done. On the other hand, if I just leave it alone, it runs Firefox well enough to run the tests we need. So, short story is this isn't a high priority, but I'd like to get it on the radar so we can expand our testing coverage.
This is a VM. I can try to move it to better storage. It also doesn't have vmwaretools installed. This would help the performance. When can I take this down to move it?
How long will the downtime take?
It's only 12GB. Probably about 30 minutes at most.
Oh, sweet. As long as we have notice, any time.
how about now? or do you want to wait for next tuesday during a downtime window?
to be clear, notice doesn't need to be long, just tell us so when our tests start failing we know why.
all done.
