Hi! I see that the performance of the web page to control my NR are directly connected to the number of messages flowing, for example, as I use "loops" on some functions to introduce delay, I can commit sometimes some mistakes, and as result I've a loop of messages that slowing down the page (not re…

[image] GiovanniG: for example, as I use "loops" on some functions to introduce delay, Can you give an example of how exactly you are doing that?

[image] GiovanniG: for example, as I use "loops" on some functions to introduce delay This is a BAD IDEA. A loop like this will probably cause blocking! *Node.js is a single threaded language which in background uses multiple threads to execute asynchronous code. Node . js is non-block…

Thank you for answer, Yes I use delays and I use them exactly for this reason.. I need to produce multiple outputs from a function, and not all together! Sometime I need fix delay, sometime I need the function pass the delay value. In these cases usually I output a compatible message as the input,…

Another more clear example, here I activate a sequence that ill turn on or off all the lights: [{"id":"f876ce1a.69e488","type":"delay","z":"fef64de3.66c588","name":"","pauseType":"delay","timeout":"220","timeoutUnits":"milliseconds","rate":"1","nbRateUnits":"1","rateUnits":"second","randomFirst":"1…

Do you really want to delay messages? Wouldn't it be better to rate limit them instead - if all you want to do is to ensure that you are not overloading the output? When using the delay node to rate limit, you can see how many outstanding messages are in the q. [{"id":"2381fa66.51b736","type":"del…

thank you guys for support, I formatted it, I didn't know, I'll not do the mistake again. On the PI side CPU level is perfect, very low form 1 to 4% constanly, but from web I'm having some slowness yes.. and usually it is when there are too many messages incoming, i suppose. NR is running on PI3, …

[image] GiovanniG: Any chance to have a real log on SSH of all the messages of the flow? Or a counter somewhere on the web ui? Currently, you need to insert a debug node in the right place and set it to dump to console only which avoids updating the debug panel. You could also add a counter n…

[image] GiovanniG: Any chance to have a real log on SSH of all the messages of the flow? Or a counter somewhere on the web ui? If you enable the metrics option in the logging configuration you'll get a log message for every messaging passing into and out of each node. Just be sure that's what…

[image] knolleary: Just be sure that's what you really want to do. Had to bold that. I've seen unexpected log inflation do some really terrible things. We're talking over $100k in lost revenue per day bad things.
