Bribing pfSense

@Mr.:
Btw: pic1: CPU doesn't update in 10 seconds; it never updates.
Well this is normally fixed by wiping your browser cache. (And no, no idea why, don't ask me…)
-
I have a box with 6 users, me and 5 women doing accounting stuff.
Heh, "accounting stuff"…
I would like to see this box you keep your women in.
-
Can you run any more services on this box?
You need both snort and suricata – really?
Pages on my webgui doesn't even take 1001, going to the main dashboard page with lots of widgets on it from a say the service status page takes 1001, 1002

It once again proves I'm not normal (tell me something new): doesn't solve it (cache gets deleted automatically on browser close). I did notice it is a little bit faster in Firefox, but not that much faster.

Pic1: only when the IRS comes.
Pic2: the empire I'm secretly building.

Yes, look in system/packages/available -> there's many more there (don't tell me you didn't know this, John :o ).

@Mr.:
For those wondering: Snort runs on WAN2, Suricata on WAN1 (testing). Bill said this is no problem.

Not really,

Hmm, from moin point of view I was seeing on an Alix board is was slow, on an Alix APU board it
was faster but not fast and on an C2758 it is really wicked fast. But mostly pending on what you
have all installed, running services, installed widgets and so on.Double IDS/IPS should be narrowing down this also a really bit I think.
I did notice it is a little bit faster in Firefox, but not that much faster.
What kind of services you are running?
Squid, SuidGuard, HAVP, DNS, DPI, VLANs, heavy QoS,…........ -

What do you mean? CPU = 28%, RAM = 1,8GB (13%). That's not shocking I think, and nothing that would prevent the GUI-subsystem from responding.

He means that even when each one deserves ONE NIC, not two, they are still running both at the same time on the box.
These two are cycle eaters.
Slow GUI could mean: you are running out of these cycles.[ Or, other broken stuff like a brainless DNS would do even better ]
Btw: the "updating in 10 secondes" could be the result of a slow GUI problem - OR : you have a browser cache problem, some old Java scripts are still present: nuke browser cache to be sure.
Access your pfSEnse box using the medic entrance : put on your gloves, and SSH in.
When you see the menu, go for option 8, don't worry, it dark in there, that's ok.

It's not a cache problem, cache is cleared on every browser close.

2.3 will have a shiny new Bootstrap-based GUI, so that should at least be different, if not faster. :-)
I admire your efforts, yet I'm still on 2.2.1; upgrading to 2.2.2 gave problems so rolled back; hoping 2.2.3 would skip the 2.2.2 problems so I upgraded that and rolled back again to 2.2.1. I'm afraid to upgrade to any new version, ever since 2.0 every upgrade required a fresh install + days of customizing the packages by hand, as the 'restore configuration' never worked :-[
So I will probably see the new GUI at pfSense 167.2.9 ;D ;D ;D
-
2.2.4 will be out soon (today, probably) and should be even better. Certainly better than 2.2.3 or 2.2.2.
2.3 with Bootstrap will be a few months out yet. Not sure on an ETA, probably sometime this fall.

[/quote]That's strange. I have installs upgrading since 2.1.x to 2.2.x with no issues. Restoring config as well. Could be that there is something in your pfSense setup that is messed up due rollbacks, packages who knows. How big is your backup config?
-
Ok, I saw your 'top'.
snort and squid eat already 45% of your CPU time.
Note that you have some zombies to (8). THis means processes are crashing in your box.
But all this isn't very conclusive for me.This might a be a nasty one: you have a boatload of packages running or your box.
I guess it might be worth the shot to disable them all, enable one by one and see when the GUI (simple web server+ PHP) starts slowing down.It can't be your hardware, you have more horse power in the box as I have, but still, the "software load" bogs it down …

(Bedaankt :-* ).
I may have pasted the top while Snort was updating. Here's another one:

@Mr.:
2.3 will have a shiny new Bootstrap-based GUI, so that should at least be different, if not faster. :-)
I admire your efforts, yet I'm still on 2.2.1; upgrading to 2.2.2 gave problems so rolled back; hoping 2.2.3 would skip the 2.2.2 problems so I upgraded that and rolled back again to 2.2.1. I'm afraid to upgrade to any new version, ever since 2.0 every upgrade required a fresh install + days of customizing the packages by hand, as the 'restore configuration' never worked :-[
So I will probably see the new GUI at pfSense 167.2.9 ;D ;D ;D
[/quote]That's strange. I have installs upgrading since 2.1.x to 2.2.x with no issues. Restoring config as well. Could be that there is something in your pfSense setup that is messed up due rollbacks, packages who knows. How big is your backup config?
Thanks Igor. I just test that, and created a screenshot.
That's ungodly big config backup.
'tIs a feature, not a bug ( ;D ;D ;D ).
I don't know, perhaps it's BB's pfblockerNG tables that are being backupped too? (I don't know :-[ ).

[/quote]Nope, it's not a feature. It's a result of very poor pfSense config. We offer paid support exactly to prevent that : )
