Performance problems on live server vs local machine.
Hello,
I have noticed performance differences in working on my local environment
(OS X) and on my live server (Linux).
I use ApacheDS to authenticate on my website and to check for second factor
authentication afterwards. In my local environment, everything is fast and
quick (extremely efficient). On the live server (which is a much beefier
machine than my local machine), it is sluggish and takes a long time for a
page to load when there are calls to the ApacheDS involved.
Does this sound familiar to anyone and does anyone have any ideas as to
what might be the problem?
Thanks,
Kevin

That's the correct way to add an index for a particular attribute.
Make sure you're applying the index to the partition where you store this kind of data though.
Here, it's the "system" partition.

Nope. The index is of type "ads-jdbmIndex" which has this object class hierarchy:
"ads-jdbmIndex" --> "ads-index" --> "ads-base" --> "top".
No need to add any extra object class attribute value.

And how specifically do I add new indexes?
I have created a few indexes on a few attributes that I created. One is
below, but I am not sure if it is correct:
version: 1
dn: ads-indexattributeid=cookie-token,ou=indexes,ads-partitionId=system,ou=p
artitions,ads-directoryServiceId=default,ou=config
objectclass: ads-index
objectclass: ads-base
objectclass: ads-jdbmIndex
objectclass: top
ads-indexattributeid: cookie-token
ads-enabled: TRUE
ads-indexcachesize: 100
I am trying to index an attribute called cookie-token, but I am not sure if
this is the correct method to get that done.
This cookie-token is a MUST attribute on my personal cookie-object class.
Should I have added another objectclass line above like this:
objectclass: cookie-object
Thanks,
Kevin

I'm quite sure that this is not an index issue here. I would rather
investigate the network, to see if there is no half-duplex configured
rooter in the middle.
Unless the server is running on a Pentium III ...

in 2.0 you need not run any tool, just restart the server after adding
a new index(es)

If I were to try to add indexes to some of these, how would I go about that?
I found the page
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/91-performance-tuning.html and saw
the part about Indices must be configured before loading data into the
server. Indices configured after loading entries into the server will NOT
work properly unless they are built using the index builder command
supplied with the ApacheDS tools command line program. More information on
this in the Building Indices section below.
I am not sure how to index attributes in ApacheDS v 2.0.0. I found the
ou=indexes in the list and I added my desired indexes. I am curious as to
whether my data will work more efficiently or if I need to somehow reload
all of my current entries.
Please get back to me as soon as possible.
Thanks so much,
Kevin

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by sending direct requests.
I have tried running queries on both servers in Apache Directory Studio and
they are similar amounts of time for each. I thought it might have
something to do with indexes that I didn't have for all of my attributes,
but the indexes don't exist on my local machine either so they should be
the same issues.
Still scratching my head on this one.
Thanks,
Kevin

There is no reason for ApacheDS to be slower on Linux than on a mac.
Have you checked if the server responds fast when you send direct
requests to it ?
