Extreme slowness for unregistered users
Symptoms
For unregistered visitors the Wikka site is very slow while registered (logged-in) visitors don't have any problem.Cause
By default, Wikka does a DNS name lookup for the node an unregistered user is connecting form. If the DNS lookup from the server is slow, this will result in very long response times. For logged-in users such a lookup doesn't take place, so they don't experience such slowness.Applies to
All current Wikka versions.Solution
will follow- I added an email field mandatory for anonymous user when they enter comments and got rid of the php function "gethostbyaddr" in wikka.php. Nevertheless, I didn't add it for new page creation.
