Description Tomas Dosek 2014-02-13 14:21:21 UTC
Description of problem:
Customer is reproducing an issue where listing 160 Templates takes around 30 seconds while listing 1000 VMs is very prompt (1 sec).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.3.0 - GA (is32.2)

How reproducible:
100 %

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have 1000 VMs owner by various users
2. Have 160 templates owned by various users
3. Try switching between the VMs and Template tabs

Actual results:
For 160 Templates listing takes around 30
while listing 1000 VMs is very prompt (1 sec)

Expected results:
Template listing should not be any slower than listing VMs

Additional info:
We tried to perform the same with API and the result was pretty much the same.
We tried to analyze the DB query used for particular listings of VMs and templates. Both returned result within 1.5 ms time frame so the database is not a setback here.

No error logs, nothing helpful was found.

Description         | 

This doesn't really seem suspicious on the first sight, however we have to bare in mind customer runs this in environment with more than 1k records in the vm_static table and the all_disks_including_snapshots listing might take really noticeable amount of time.

I'll let the customer do the explain analyze on top of their database to see how fast we can get the result.

Tomas, any reason for UI to expect templates contains disks when returned from search query?
this is weird and i think we should remove it.
looking at rest usage also doesnt seem to expect disks returned with the template

Comment 5 Tomas Jelinek 2014-02-20 14:33:14 UTC
Looking at the code it seems that the result of search query is not expected to contain also the disks.

@Daniel, you know the disks related code better, do you agree?

It seems indeed safe to remove the disks update from search query.
I don't recall any usage of disks in Templates main tab context.
We probably can just amend SearchQuery -> searchVMTemplates method (should be verified though...).

Comment 8 Michal Skrivanek 2014-02-27 15:42:18 UTC
identified issues with editing templates, reopening

Comment 9 Ilanit Stein 2014-03-19 12:51:56 UTC
Verified on rhevm 3.4 av3.1:

Check rhevm 3.3, move from VMs tab (30 VMs), that contain 30 VMs to Templates tab (160 Templates) - It takes several seconds till templates list is displayed.

Check on rhevm 3.4, av3.1, move from VM tab to Templates tab (160 templates) - take around 1 sec.
