WPT monitor does not scale that much. Alternatives ?

[braincracking]

it looks like I'm hitting the limits of WPT monitor.
I have some dozens of scenarios, resulting in something like one test result per second. After 4 months at this pace, I had to raise up the PHP memory limit above 512Mo in order to just display the "reports" page.

I will probably have to dig a bit in the code to find the Doctrine query that pumps up so much memory, or maybe purge the database from old tests results.

I was wondering :
who uses WPT monitor at a big scale ?
are people using WPT coupling it with another monitoring solution ?

Etsy do… Jonathan Klien talks a bit about it here: http://codeascraft.etsy.com/2012/11/09/o...ce-report/

At last years Velocity, Aaron Kulick and Cliff Crocket talked a bit about how Walmart were using it - http://velocityconf.com/velocity2012/pub...ail/24825, slides and demo VM are at the bottom of the page

I know of others but haven't seen anything concrete posted about them.

Let me know if you find the offending code. The few installs I've set up didn't reach the scale you are at.

@andydavis : Saw the Walmart Slides and already applied the export of the monitoring to a Graphite dashboard, to display nice graphics in the middle of open spaces, but the part where one can link a peak in the graph to a specific test can be found only in wptMonitor

@asperkins : I've searched a bit and wrote a fix to shorten the time spent to get all the data from the DB to the PHP process : https://github.com/jpvincent/WPT-server/...hGraph.php
that does not shorten the time spent by MySQL to extract the data, but is enough to fix the PHP memory limit I hit.

Also : I'm maintaining since several months a project that fixes the issues of wptmonitor I found until now, bundled with WPT upgrades (and sometimes fixes) : https://github.com/jpvincent/WPT-server/
