There's nothing interesting in the logs during the spikes of high response time (and shortly after/before).

I've also been looking at the apache2 log. At the time of the 1st and 2nd spikse there are many thumbnail requests. However, I don't think it is enough to explain the problem. They're about job 11075965, 11063307 and a few other jobs. So that's actually not just the job mentioned in the job description. I dared to open a few of those jobs they're actually just small ones. The problematic job 11085729 is actually not logged often about in the logs. Maybe because it gets stuck loading even before all the individual thumbnails are loaded.

Slightly before the 2nd spike many requests were made by the qem-bot. Again, that's nothing I think that would have caused this alone - especially because most of those requests were actually slightly before.

I've also been checking the PostgreSQL logs. I've been spotting the following problematic query:

However, that's before the relevant timeframe and thus not related.

It looks like someone was hammering the database at some point via COPY statements:

The longest of those queries took 6.59767745 minutes but that's of course still not long enough to be part of the relevant timeframe. I'm still wondering who's doing those expensive queries. Maybe they're just part of our backup?

I've also been looking at the full journal. Considering all the velociraptor messages, e.g.

May 10 15:00:11 openqa velociraptor-client[12948]: [INFO] 2023-05-10T15:00:11+02:00 File Ring Buffer: Enqueue {"header":"{\"ReadPointer\":260,\"WritePointer\":2990,\"MaxSize\":1073741874,\"AvailableBytes\":2626,\"LeasedBytes\":0}","leased_pointer":260}

it is hard to spot what's going on. I think the raptor is just very verbose and not necessarily the culprit (considering this highly verbose log message seem to be logged all time). There's definitely room for improvement, though.

Good. So I'm resolving the issue.
