Images slow to load?

[beeudoublez]

I'm running Cacti on a dual processor W2K3 box with w/2GB of RAM. I'm using MySQL 4, PHP5, and Apache2.

Everytime I go to a page with graphs, I have to wait about 15 seconds for it to 'load' about 6 graphs. Sitting on the server itself, I can see that it is spawning Command Prompt boxes for each graph.

Is there a way to speed this up? In comparison, I have a 900Mhz Linux box running against the same devices with very little lag.

1) What version of cacti? Do you have the patches installed?
2) What version of rrdtool? Using the latest?
3) Any mods like Zend Optimizer or fastcgi installed?\
4) Can you see what are in the command windows? If you dont want to see any of those, then you need to run the apache service under a different user account than you log into your machine with.

Cacti .086g w/pre-patched files added
RRDTool 1.2.11
No mods


I can't see anything in the command window, they come up really fast, and go away. The screen is blank though, its not like I can't read the text.

I don't mind seeing them, but I'm just noting the correlation between them popping up and the graphing results.

The windows are probably each instance of the rrdtool graph command. Interesting you see those, because with IIS I do not.

You tried running apache under a different user account?
