GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Armitage with a very very slow performance on a non VM box
2. Mouse right clicks takes forever for example to use the stack function
3. Host menu functions take forever to transmit the gui example MFS scans popup 
requiring network segmentation input take a long time to appear.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
This happened in ubuntu meerkat 10.10 Linux ptcasnxpt1079 2.6.35-25-generic 
#44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 21 17:40:44 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
and on a sandbox environment also after performing the msfupdate. After the 
update things got complicated as within the VM BT4Rc2 and within Meerkat Ubuntu.

What version of Metasploit are you using (type: svn info)? On which
operating system?
version  =[ metasploit v3.7.0-dev [core:3.7 api:1.0] +[ svn r12214 updated 
today (2011.04.01)

Which database are you using?
Postgresql

This sounds like an issue with your host computer or guest VM not having enough 
ram.

Never mind, I found the cause. It's Metasploit's April Fools day joke. I guess 
it's on us. Set the environment variable NOFOOL to 1. Try:

export NOFOOL=1

Put that in your ~/.bashrc file. This will disable the April Fools day joke and 
return Armitage's performance to normal. Optionally, wait until tonight for the 
joke to be taken out of the codebase.

^_^, well that explains why the vmstat, iostat, top, snoop, strace and tcpdump 
were giving me the right values.... was like, wtf.....

Thanks again man and congrats for the awesome work here with Armitage. Its a 
nice masterpiece of code. Hopefully ill be able to provide the community also 
with a nice distributed system based for my thesis.
