[Bro-Dev] [JIRA] (BIT-1353) BroCtl status/top take excessive amount of time

[Daniel Thayer (JIRA)]

Daniel Thayer commented on BIT-1353:
------------------------------------

I'm not seeing a problem.  As a test, I simulated a slow node by adding a "sleep"
command to one of the scripts that broctl runs on the remote host.
If the sleep is long enough to exceed the timeout, then I see "???" in the status
output (in the "Running", "Peers", and "Started" columns).
Otherwise, broctl status simply gathers information reported by Bro.

> After running a large bro cluster for a few days on a FreeBSD system (FreeBSD 10.1, 28 physical nodes, 81 worker processes), broctl actions that interact with all nodes seem to take excessive amounts of time (>2 minutes for a broctl status). This was not the case right after starting up the cluster.
> If there is any way I can help with more information, please let me know what to do.
