Slow response times sometimes in the last few days

Hello,
I am running an Elixir app with two shared instances (FRA, CDG). In the last few days there were times were the response times were really high (up to 30s). I couldn’t see an unusual amount of traffic during that time.

The last two days (CET):

Are you aware of something in those regions? As I am using shared instances, could it be that the instance was utilized by another customer too much that I was impacted like this?

Thank you.

I could observe it today again. And again there wasn’t much more traffic nor much load on the system…

Do you see anything noteworthy in the app’s VM logs?

Hi,

no, just the longer response times, but nothing else… And there is always just one instance impacted.

PS: I removed the lines with the beginning of the request like POST /my/path as that’s basically the same path all the time (API).

This looks like the app itself is slow to send a response.

Are you connecting to a Postgres database with this app by chance? That looks like something that might happen if the fra Elixir app isn’t reading from the right replica.

Yes it’s connecting to a Postgres in FRA. But every instance reads/writes to the master PG.
The whole Postgres cluster is in FRA (without read replicas at other locations). IMHO CDG should be close enough for using the remote PG. Not all API requests need PG, so I wanted to have at least some location redundancy.
Until my last post there weren’t any further issues. But I could keep everything in FRA for some time to see whether I have the issue again.

As there were extreme long response times in the CDG region today starting at 4pm UTC, I disabled that region and only keep one instance in FRA where the DB cluster is.

Also here I saw some very long response time in between:

That’s the same API endpoint and function. Nothing special. What can I do on this case? Seems like a Fly issue from my POV.

And it happened again suddenly - out of nowhere. Not higher traffic than usual, only on one instance (CDG region again).

@kurt
To be honest, it seems that Fly is not ready yet to serve production traffic. I can’t explain to my customers all the issues we saw in the last weeks. I mean, alone Network issues in FRA and AMS - #12 by kurt was a big disaster: one region was off for hours without a real explanation. I understand that it was night for you at this time. But at the same time you’re operating a global hosting provider, that shouldn’t be an issue.

I understand that there are incidents from time to time. But I lose more and more trust when I see how issues and incidents are handled. It’s sad as I had big hopes in your platform. But I need to have a more stable platform.

I do not think these slow requests in the logs are related to our infrastructure. Those are app logs, and I’d like to understand more about what you’re actually doing + logging there.

The Frankfurt issue last week manifested as slow TLS handshakes, it happened before it hit your app process. An app that logs ~30s to send responses is experiencing something else. Thats 30 seconds spent in the app process.

Can you add more info to these app logs? Specifically, the fly-request-id header and the fly-region header. It would be helpful to know what part of the world these requests are coming from, and our request ID will let us look at some proxy level diagnostics that may or may not be helpful.

For what it’s worth, I would not run app processes in CDG that have to write to Postgres in FRA.

Unfortunately I can’t add this log right now, but I will do it as soon as possible. Whenever we see that problem again, it will be there then. But all the traffic comes basically from around Washington as we’re a Slack app. So whenever someone does something in Slack we get an event. Or when specific data is changed, we get an event too.

However, I just checked the metrics Fly provides OOTB:

Here you can see the spiking HTTP response times. The interesting one is the last spike around 2:37pm. When I saw the long response times I scaled the deployment down to 1 instance. As the backup one is in CDG, the CDG has been shut down (I verified with fly status). I did that at 2:33pm. That means that the FRA instance had that spike later.

Interestingly we see a high vm service concurrency here, but only for one instance. And no spike for the other instance at 2:37pm :thinking:

How is vm service concurrency defined? My assumption was that the shared vm was utilized too much?! Would a dedicated instance help in this case?

PS: Unfortunately I can’t run multiple instances in the same region currently (no shared state yet for login sessions). But yes, I will fix that soon so that all instances are as close to the DB as possible.

It’s happening again. After I noticed that I started another instance in CDG to keep some requests working until it’s stable again.
Good that I added your requested header already.

I was also checking what exactly is happening when we got an API hit. Basically it’s updating a record IF the information is different. So one SELECT (based on indexed ID) and maybe an UPDATE.

It could be that we get many change events at once. How is Fly handling that? Currently mostly all of the requests are processed by one instance although we have 3 in total in FRA. How does the load balancing work? It’s obviously not round robin… @kurt

If you don’t mind, could you show a skeleton of the SQL statements and logic you use for this.

Reason for asking - have you measured how long it takes to do this conditional update logic if you try this stand-alone, on a test copy of the DB; and if you can perf test your bunch-of-updates scenario to tune the bit of app code (that is potentially writing across regions in each of these rapid-fire calls).

EDIT: Example: If each conditional update takes 1s and you get a rapid-fire of 30 requests, that’ll be 30s. So my above Q is just to see if that process can be tuned.
On searching about conditional update with pg, I came across this.
Sharing just for reference - Conditional update in PostgreSQL (updated!) | by Tamás Polgár | Developer rants | Medium

It’s an Elixir app with Ecto. So I load a record into a defined struct (basically SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = <id>). Then I apply a changeset with the changed data and trigger an Ecto update operation. If there is no change (attributes on struct and changeset are same), we just don’t trigger an SQL UPDATE statement. I’ve checked that already - to be sure.

Actually it’s happening a lot that there is no change on the attributes I am checking.

Moreover I’ve checked the query time and CPU utilization today when I had longer response times. The query time was constant while the response time went up. The CPU utilization wasn’t higher than normal.

And as I wrote above, now all instances are in the same region. No cross-region writes anymore.

Are you running any replicas or only a primary in the primary region?

ignore me. I see the comment above about the primary and everything doing reads and writes there.

I saw something like this, might be related or I could just be adding noise to the conversation, in the Singapore region a few days ago

Communications between my Elixir app (like yours, via Ecto) and the Postgres database was extremely slow. Live Dashboard was telling me that queries were taking ~1s to complete when hitting the database. As a result, I was seeing 15s+ load times on pages that made a substantial amount of calls to the database.

Over time, the performance has improved to drop the average query time down to the 7ms mark as shown in this chart.

@mathiasn do you have GitHub - phoenixframework/phoenix_live_dashboard: Realtime dashboard with metrics, request logging, plus storage, OS and VM insights installed in your production environment? I would be very interested to see the query latency charts if you have them (if you need some help installing it, let me know)

I’m terrified the problem is going to come back again :grimacing:

Hey @sam,
yes, I’ve actually used Live Dashboard to check for the query time. But I didn’t see spikes there, it was constant as I wrote in my previous post. But I will check it when it happens again.

@kurt: I have another theory why loadbalancing does not seem to work properly. My Phoenix LiveApp basically consists of two parts: one handles API requests, the other handles a LiveApp. I do see long response times sometimes on the API. When this happens more or less only one instance is hit, no visible loadbalancing. In my fly.toml there is connections configured for services.concurrency as this was recommended for websocket apps. Could this be the problem why loadbalancing of usual requests isn’t working?

The connection between the application and the database is slow, possibly because the application and database are deployed in different regions.

Yesterday I found that the application with the region set to hkg was deployed to the sin (backup region), so I also set the backup region to hkg to solve it.
