Slow Blizzard speed?

[danny91]

Hi sorry to bother you, i'm struggling a bit hopefully someone can help me? The Steam part works fine and maxes out my 80mbit connection. However blizzard's only hits 2.5MB/s (Steam gets ~7). I was wondering if you may know what could be causing this? Thanks.

Talking about the initial download... After that it maxes out the gigabit network on a re-download.

My blizzard error log seems to have lots of errors... Any idea on this? http://pastebin.com/hb6WYC1Q

Hi, thanks for reporting.

Try adding proxy_hide_header Etag; in upstreams/blizzard.conf in the location {} directive, clear the cache using scripts/clear-cache.sh and see if that results in better speed / no error log entries.

Many thanks

Hi, thanks for your reply. That seems to have fixed the error's in the logs. However the speed does not seem to have increased. Still hovering around 2-3 MB/s. Any ideas? Thanks.

I expect it is related to using slice but I do not know the best way to go about tuning this.

Perhaps try increasing or decreasing slice 1m and re-test?

Also, what hardware are you running this on re: CPU and storage?

Thanks

Hi ill try see if changing it works. I5 @4gHz 32GB ram and 30TB zfs array. Nginx seems to only be using 3-6% Cpu so doesnt seem to be bottlenecking CPU wise. Might be to do with storage however it doesnt seem to be being hit too hard.

ti-mo/ansible-lanparty have recently reverted to non-slice for Blizzard, citing an "nginx bug".

More detail than that I don't have. I've commented and hopefully they'll reply.

Hi there,

ti-mo replied to the above linked issue and proxy_hide_header Etag; should have done the trick as mentioned previously.

Are you still having issues?
