[Mod-security-developers] SecRemoteRules very slow

[Jeremy V. <j.v...@df...>]

Hi all,

 

Since we migrated to ModSecurity 2.9 when SecRemoteRules is set, every
action on httpd are very slow : 

 

For example : 

time service httpd configtest

Syntax OK

 

real    0m17.801s

user    0m1.706s

sys     0m0.513s

 

 

Without SecRemoteRules : 

time service httpd configtest

Syntax OK

 

real    0m0.105s

user    0m0.062s

sys     0m0.029s

 

 

The number of downloaded rules is just 24 : [Tue Jun 14 03:43:24.874377
2016] [:notice] [pid 3123] ModSecurity: Loaded 24 rules from:
'https://dashboard.modsecurity.org/rules/download/plain'.

 

Is there any solution to reduce this time ? Every stop / start take awhile.

 

Thanks,

Jérémy
