Perforce sync is slow - Checklist for debugging

Posted on 06:27 by Unknown
Is your Perforce performance is slow while doing sync or some other operations ?


1) Check you client spec’s view (if the repository is large) and if your client has a view of the entire repository, performance will be impacted (or you may have exceeded a maxRowCount error)
2) Modify your client spec (or create a new one) with a very narrow view (for testing, maybe down a single folder)
3) Do you have a firewall setup and preventing this kind of activity?
4) Can you try sync from another machine?
5)Try and play with "p4 ping" by progressively increasing the  message count, receive and transmit lengths (one at a time). If you hit the same wall repeatedly, then this could very well be indicative of some   throttling taking place somewhere
6) p4 -z tag info
7)  p4 -vN sync //depot/path/to/file      where N = 1,2,..9
8)  Network problems  http://kb.perforce.com/article/40/isolating-network-problems
