Assignment Uploads Slow in Moodle 2.7

by IronHorse University - Wednesday, September 17, 2014, 2:44 AM

Hello All,

I have a Moodle 2.7 installation running on FreeBSD 10 (64-bit). Currently, everything is running great except for when students upload their assignments to the server (either file upload or online text - same result). The server experiences no increase in CPU/RAM usage during this time but the Moodle software is very slow to respond until the upload is complete. Anyone idea why this is happening? Right now our students (on ironhorseuniversity.com) cannot upload their homework. Thanks in advance for any help offered!

We have "resolved" this by migrating the server to an Ubuntu Server 14.04 install.

I am facing the same issue on Moodle 2.8.1 even though the server is running Ubuntu Server 14.04, does anyone have any idea about this issue?

Are you using Clam AV? I noticed an improvement in file upload speed after changing the path to use the clam daemon on Moodle 2.6, Ubuntu Server 14.04.

clam AV path: /usr/bin/clamdscan
