[rt-users] Postgresql 4.4.1 slow queries?

Just want to update this, It seems that the issue at hand depends on if user is admin or has more dashboards available, hence most users now will only be users and have few dashboards available, the results of this is very fast performance (no lag or slow queries).

Hahaha, i used mysql syntax first "use rt4;" of course that messed it up :)

Below is the output of EXPLAIN ANALYSE, but I need some help to interpret the relevant information in this :)

Ämne: [rt-users] Postgresql 4.4.1 slow queries?

Hi,

After upgrading to version 4.4.1 i have noticed that the SQL-queries takes significant longer time to produce a result, on average on my system, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Postgres 9.3, Apache with perlmod. 8 gigram and plenty of CPU in a vmware cluster on SSD:s (likely not a hardware issue). We did not experience RT to have been this slow on 4.4.0.

Each query takes about 350ms to give a result, occasionally up to 4000ms have been seen, not a big problem but somethings that needs to be fixed.

Postgres have access to shared buffers = 2048 and effective_cache_size = 4096MB that was modified yesterday but queries still are same speed.

I have read plenty on postgres optimizing but not much seem to make a difference, and the https://rt-wiki.bestpractical.com/wiki/PerformanceTuning seems a bit out of date.

Example of problem:

192.168.2.65 - - [27/Sep/2016:09:06:49 +0200] "GET /Search/Build.html?NewQuery=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 12072 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.101 Safari/537.36"
09:06:52 CEST LOG:  duration: 3362.432 ms  execute dbdpg_p2242_1745: SELECT DISTINCT main.* FROM Users main CROSS JOIN ACL ACL_3 JOIN Principals Principals_1  ON ( Principals_1.id = main.id ) JOIN CachedGroupMembers CachedGroupMembers_2  ON ( CachedGroupMembers_2.MemberId = Principals_1.id ) JOIN CachedGroupMembers CachedGroupMembers_4  ON ( CachedGroupMembers_4.MemberId = Principals_1.id )  WHERE ((ACL_3.ObjectType = 'RT::Queue') OR (ACL_3.ObjectType = 'RT::System' AND ACL_3.ObjectId   = 1)) AND (ACL_3.PrincipalId = CachedGroupMembers_4.GroupId) AND (ACL_3.PrincipalType = 'Group') AND (ACL_3.RightName = 'OwnTicket' OR ACL_3.RightName = 'SuperUser') AND (CachedGroupMembers_2.Disabled = '0') AND (CachedGroupMembers_2.GroupId = '4') AND (CachedGroupMembers_4.Disabled = '0') AND (Principals_1.Disabled = '0') AND (Principals_1.PrincipalType = 'User') AND (Principals_1.id != '1')  ORDER BY main.Name ASC
I'm looking for any suggestions about this, and I'm not an expert on postgresql, but guess that this could have something to do with RT:s "($UseSQLForACLChecks, 1);" or modperl via Apache or simply some index in postgres?

Appreciate any feedback :-)

Regards, Joel
