[rabbitmq-discuss] Web Management Plugin Sluggishness

Fri Oct 19 17:41:03 BST 2012

In 2.8.x (and prior), /api/nodes will make an RPC call to each node in 
turn to get the node-specific stats. If one node is heavily loaded or 
slow in responding for whatever reason this will mean /api/nodes will 
take a long time to return.

This has changed on default already, for basically the reason you're 
running into, and the nodes emit stats events for the management DB to 
pick up.

If you invoke:

rabbitmqctl eval '[timer:tc(fun () -> 
rabbit_mgmt_external_stats:info(N), N end) || N <- 
rabbit_mnesia:running_clustered_nodes()].'

(all one line)

then rabbitmqctl will make all these RPC calls and time them (the times 
are in microseconds). That might let you know if you have a problem node.

Cheers, Simon
