Actually one of the reasons I use uwsgi for deployment is that I get execution<br>
times 'for free': 'generated 309 bytes in 268 msecs' or 'generated 436 bytes<br>
in 56 msecs' including the uri and all kinds of useful information.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>That kind of monitoring is indeed what we do now, with uwsgi:</div><div><div>{address space usage: 1769336832 bytes/1687MB} {rss usage: 1298124800 bytes/1237MB} [pid: 52669|app: 0|req: 349/9564] 1</div><div>35.252.28.229 () {40 vars in 1686 bytes} [Wed Mar 22 07:39:38 2017] GET /review/ext/cvpsw-review/pull-request/15006/_/c</div><div>vp80 => generated 76111 bytes in 924 msecs (HTTP/1.1 200) 5 headers in 149 bytes (1 switches on core 0)</div><div>{address space usage: 1687105536 bytes/1608MB} {rss usage: 1218387968 bytes/1161MB} [pid: 49555|app: 0|req: 209/9565] </div><div>35.252.28.229 () {42 vars in 1591 bytes} [Wed Mar 22 07:39:40 2017] GET /js/graph.js?ver=0.2.1 </div><div>=> generated 0 bytes in 156 msecs (HTTP/1.1 304) 3 headers in 98 bytes (1 switches on core 0) </div><div>2017-03-22 07:40:09.168 INFO [kallithea.RequestWrapper] IP: 135.224.206.40 Request to /review/ms/sw-review/branches-tags time: 66.745s </div></div><div><br></div><div>But it are these kind of peeks we want to understand on what Kallithea was exactly waiting upon, is it pure disk/io, is it a qeury to the database that took long (postgresql with monitoring with pg_activity)</div><div>Is there anything Kallithea debug info or pythong profiler can provide us (without overloading kallithea itself with all the debug) that we today are not aware of?</div><div><br></div><div>Our database is 'only' 270MB big, so besides inefficient queries, I cannot understand if it would be database access that is causing hickups of more then a minute.

My setup is similar to this:<br>
<a href="https://lists.sfconservancy.org/pipermail/kallithea-general/2015q1/000130.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.sfconservancy.<wbr>org/pipermail/kallithea-<wbr>general/2015q1/000130.html</a><br>
<br>
You may even monitor execution times or graph them or do some statistics work<br>
on them or -- simply put -- correlate higher latency and execution time with<br>
system or I/O load (even simple tools like sysstat/sadc/sar are sufficient to<br>
gain insights in this regard).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I will already have a look at these simple ones, I must admit I didn't use these until now (I did use iowait/top/...)</div><div><a href="http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2011/03/sar-examples/?utm_source=feedburner">http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2011/03/sar-examples/?utm_source=feedburner</a><br></div><div><br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

Hope, this helps...<br>

All the best,<br>
