Performance on third party hardware, not official Netgate

@stephenw10
No. As a matter of fact the "top -aSH" process is first up after the idles:
-
Witch Version of pfSense you use?
Older Versions take long to load the GUI if the Upstream DNS fails, Update Check fails...
Versions after 2.5 don't suffering like that.
-
That top output was taken while the page was failing to open?
It's surprising there are no php processes shown above top there.

Ok, well that's closer to what I expect at least but it's not using any CPU to speak of so the delay is probably something waiting to time out.
Is there nothing shown in the System or GUI Service logs when this happens? -
@stephenw10 No, nothing in either.
-
What do you have running on there? What do you have on the dashboard?

@peterlecki Looks like you're living in the future... 6pm PDT today -- your clock time and time zone are off.
I would disable DNSSEC in DNS resolver, reload the service, and go back to the Dashboard to see if things are behaving.
-
Mmm, given your other post and the fact it shows unable to check for updates the page load time for the dashboard would be expected to be slow. There are a number of things there that try to connect out and have to timeout.
I would not exhaust any more effort on this until the general WAN connectivity issue in your other thread is solved.

@rcoleman-netgate
DNSsec disabled and time corrected. No difference in functionality. -
Is there perhaps a USB to eth adapter used as wan port?
-
@dobby_
Negative, it's native ethernet. I also tried reassigning the interfaces by swapping which was used for LAN and WAN but it made no difference. -
I reflashed the device and now it works fine. No more timeouts/delays and no more weird networking issues we were battling with in another thread.
