2.4.5 High latency and packet loss, not in a vm
-
No idea if this is related, but I tried to add 2 monitor IPs to my v4 and v6 gateways and immediately I had latency and drops. Even when they were removed, I could barely get control of the web GUI. Had to reboot. Below are clips of top -aSH and proc load.
-
@provels That is exactly the bug, yup! Fix at the moment appears to be to drop to one vCPU if you're able.
-
@muppet Thanks. Think I'd rather keep the procs! My Hyper-V host is pretty lame!
-
@provels Then I suggest rolling back to your 2.4.4p3 snapshot.
-
@muppet It's just li'l ole me here. I have 2.4.4-p3, 2.4.5 UFS and 2.4.5 ZFS available on the lab.

I get timeouts when filter is reloading.
Still running 8 core setup and only minor issues. Its not production ready yet since it has timeouts when this happens:

This is all the same thing. We are past the point of 'is this a problem'. It is. Netgate is working on it. They have solicited configuration data and some users have provided that.
The impact of changing gateway configuration (monitor ip, polling freq, averaging time, etc) was reported at least once back on April 4 (look back in this thread) and acknowledged by Netgate.
The simplest way to manage this:
- If you can manage on 2.4.5 without disruption, stay put.
- If not, downgrade to 2.4.4-p3. Adjust the settings in System->Upgrade as needed.
Now we wait to see what happens, at some point 2.4.5-p1 will come out. When? I don't think anyone one knows at the moment.
Not in a passive mood? Open a ticket at Netgate Support and ask what you can provide that they would find helpful.
Just a note: When you post system log data with gateway alarms you might want to obscure your public IP, especially if it's a static IP. Just saying...

Its the monitor IP and not our own systems :)

no problem.Monitor IPs is the only thing that affected my system with 2 procs, all else same.

Yes, that's replicable everywhere I've tried it. The devs working on this are aware.

I have been told that this issue has been replicated in the Netgate lab and they working on a fix.
I would also remind all that are impatient for a fix to this issue that the support and development staff at Netgate have been challenged in ways no one could have predicted a few months ago. A massive surge in the need for remote access across their installed customer base and all that goes with that. They have offered up support to non-paying pfsense users as well as their customers on contract to meet these changing needs.
So, they are on it.
