Slow communication when using Boncode with Wildfly 10.1.Final

[ljack]

Hi, We upgraded our system from JBoss 4.2.3 to Wildfly 10.1.Final. After the upgrade we noticed that communications through IIS->Boncode->Wildfly takes minimum of 1 seconds for every request. Even request for resources that don't exist. If we communicate directely to Wildfly (port 8080) the response time for on existing resource it 32ms.

Wildfly has a large list of configurable parameters for network IO (https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY10/Undertow+subsystem+configuration).

• Tried configuring PacketSize, no difference
• Tried configuring Boncode to use connection pool but it always failed after a while. Must be some kind of configurational issue.

Any advice?

I would have to look into this. Cannot see an obvious reason for the delay. What OS is running Wildfly?

Not getting the slowness. Can you provide a little more detail on the environment. I used a standalone Windows server machine for everything.

Windows 6.3.9500 / Windows Server 2012 R2. IIS 8.5, IIS and WildFly both in the same machine. IIS is configured to do "Automatic Integrated Windows Login" with AD.

BonCodeAJP13.settings:

<Settings>
    <Server>localhost</Server>
    <Port>8009</Port>
    <EnableRemoteAdmin>False</EnableRemoteAdmin>
    <EnableHeaderDataSupport>True</EnableHeaderDataSupport>
    <ForceSecureSession>False</ForceSecureSession>
    <AllowEmptyHeaders>True</AllowEmptyHeaders>
    <EnableHTTPStatusCodes>True</EnableHTTPStatusCodes>
    <MaxConnections>0</MaxConnections>
    <WriteTimeOut>2000</WriteTimeOut>
    <LogLevel>1</LogLevel>
    <PacketSize>16384</PacketSize>
    <LogDir>C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\BonCode</LogDir>
</Settings>

Ah, It seems the slowdown was caused because we're using localhost and Wildfly was only listening ipv4 network. So this was the classical ipv6-ipv4 delay problem.
