icon5.gif   Problem with large entry size, posted by Dimitrios Tsirigkas on Mon Oct 16 16:20:06 2006 
Hi Stefan,

I have posted an entry of approximately a thousand lines (ten thousand words). Posting it took some time, which is logical to a certain degree. However, whenever a user asks for "Full" view of the logbook, the page takes around two minutes to load and the CPU usage on the elog server goes to beyond 90% for all this time. Is this to be expected for an entry of that size or is there something going wrong here?

Thanks,
Dimitris

The problem lies in the ELCode parsing. When you post an entry in ELCode form, the elogd server has to parse every word to see if it's any of the ELcode tags. This is right now implemented in a kind of poor way, such that it takes very long for long entries. I will work to optimize that. In the meantime, it will help if you post such long entries just in "plain" form.

I improved the performance by some factor in SVN revision 1733. Can you give it a try and report your speed improvement? Depending on the result, I can probably do even a bit better with some more effort.

Hi all,
Before all, i would say that ELOG is simply one of the best web-based program
Simple and fast
Just one day to configure it for our firm with multiple groups and so on ^^

So, my last problem is in the Email format
I know the use "use email heading" and other, but i would like to configure the body of the mail, where there is the link, the name of the author, etc.

I wonder if it could be customized
thank again for this soft, and good continuation

Following options can be used to format the email body:

  • Use Email heading = ...
  • Use Email Subject = ...
  • Email attributes = ...
  • Email encoding = ...
  • Email format = ...

Probably the last one is the one you are looking for...
