AW: BASE performance

Hello!

I have a similar problem. 
I'm using BASE with a postgresql server. When I refresh the start page, BASE needs lots of seconds to load. I have many 
alarms added to the database per minute. 
Do you have any ideas, what I should check oder optimize?

Thank you!

Regards,
Heinrich

Gentlemen,

Thank you for your replies.  It turns out my IDS config is to blame, and address resolution 
(unableto+waitingfortimeout) was leading to the delay/lag.  

For the record, if for some reason you'd like to turn address resolution off, Kevin Johnson advises: "In your 
base_conf.php file I would recommend changing $resolve_IP to equal 0 and try again."

Regards,

Andrew

Can you tell us what optimizing the MySQL database might be, and the procedure?

I do understand that when the alerts are deleted, at least with ACID there are some remains of the alerts left behind. 
Can these be cleaned, and if so, how?

Kindest regards, 
Michael...

We're using BASE / Apache / Snort / MySQL on Win 2k, just recently 
installed.  Many lookups using this front end are very slow, 
sometimes taking 30-50 seconds to load. Our database is new and not 
very large. Processor (1ghz) utilization is between %0 and %3.  The 
inital home pages loads quickly, it's only lookups that crawl.

On the front page, how many total alerts does it report? For databases 
processor is largely irrelevant--how much RAM do you have? Have you 
done any mysql tuning?
