I have a am trying to figure out why the online assignment (approximately 300 words per submission) for about 80 students is taking so long to load. I have
My suspicion is that I need to configure something in Apache or MySQL to allow for more memory but I am not certain. It seems that once the page loads if I want to view a group or sort the page that the reload is pretty quick provided it takes place within a short time (couple seconds) of the original load. For example, if I do a CTRL-F5 (hard refresh) right after loading the page I can get the performance info down to (2.618101 secs RAM: 2.8MB Included 28 files ticks: 262 user: 22 sys: 4 cuser: 0 csys: 0 Load average: 1.95)
Any suggestions as to how I might go about improving the performance of loading this page or where I might look to improve things?Ubuntu Linux (6.06), Apache 2.0.55, PHP 5.1.2, MySQL 5.0.22 - Moodle 1.6.3+ (2006050530).
running happily on a 3.0 GHz system with 4G of RAM. We have about 1000 students with about 30 concurrent users most of the time and performance is usually not an issue; however, when I go to grade the online assignment (http://moodle.jesuitcp.org/mod/assignment/submissions.php?id=10697&group=0), I get significant delays in loading times as demonstrated by the following from the performance info obtained from the bottom of the page (28.827939 secs RAM: 3.2MB Included 38 files ticks: 2883 user: 1138 sys: 7 cuser: 0 csys: 0 Load average: 2.15).
