Google Search SLOW in a Private Window

Post by therube »

(First instance, generally, of a) Google Search is SLOW in a Private Window

Haven't really looked into it, yet, but has anyone else noticed this?

Have google.com as your search engine
Open a new Private Window
Search for something, anything, say, 'basilisk'

SLOW, as in 126793 ms slow.

Code: Select all

Blocked:        0 ms
DNS resolution:   63028 ms
Connecting:       63283 ms
Sending:        0 ms
Waiting:       76 ms
Receiving:     406 ms
I do my searching from the Location (URL) bar.

?

Code: Select all

https://www.google.com/search?q=basilisk&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial

This is a fairly new, oh I don't know, say week old, behavior.
No changes on my end, that I am aware of, to account for this.

New Profile does the same.

New Profile
Open SeaMonkey
Open a Private Window
Paste "https://www.google.com/search?q=basilis ... unofficial" into the Location bar & hit return


Ah, it is not Private Window specific.
It looks to be more, the first google search from opening your browser.

Unable to duplicate on a different computer, different location, same ISP (Comcast), different OS (Win7 vs XP).
SeaMonkey 2.49.3 vs 2.49.4, x86 vs x64.
New Profiles in all cases.

Modem, no router.
Wired connection.

Suppose I could change DNS servers.
(Current, XP, 75.75.75.75.)

Ideas?

Changing DNS server made no difference.

IPV6 it looks like.
Wonder why? Wonder why all of a sudden? And wonder why it is only (seemingly) SeaMonkey that is affected?

Disable IPV6 &... 550 ms total:

(Shush, FF60 ~100 ms total.)

I would, but just I spent 450 ms more of my life then I could have, so now I'm upset, curled up, contemplating my next action?
(I think I'll go vote :-).)

No, actually not.

Current computer, XP, no IPV6.

So I tried a (cough) Win10 computer, on this line - with IPV6.
IPV6 & SeaMonkey (on Win7, akin to FF52) & also FF52 (on Win10, Gecko 52) are both SLOW, as described.

Disable IPV6 (in Control Panel in Win7, in about:config in SeaMonkey in Win10), & both are fast.
Likewise, FF57, Win10, with IPV6 is also fast.

So seems something with earlier Mozilla & IPV6.
I'll have to check other browsers (Pale Moon & Waterfox)...

---

Both work equally well in Win10:

ping -4 ipv4.google.com
ping -6 ipv6.google.com

(Quickly....)

Pale Moon 27 & 28 (FF 38 & 52 based-ish) look to be unaffected.

(And that said PM 27 is slower then SeaMonkey - with IPV4, with PM 28 more in line with FF 60.
PM 27 ~1000 ms, PM 28 ~100 ms, give or take.
Last attempt SeaMonkey - with IPV6, 84,663 ms, wow!)

Waterfox 56.2.1 (x64, with e10s enabled, FF 56 based) looks to be unaffected.
Not seeing the same "requests" (the specific GET, maybe it has scrolled off the screen?) but 10 requests, various items loaded during the search is, oh, in the 600 ms range.

FF 38 looks to be unaffected.
~500 ms.

FF 52, getting mixed results.
Most are decent, ~200 - 300 ms, but every 5th or 6th attempt, I'll hit a longer one, ~6000 ms.
But still nowhere near as long as with SeaMonkey.
(And different from what I was seeing earlier on a Win10 system. Currently on Win7.)
(Figures, the attempt after writing the above ws 22000 ms.)

How is 2.53 doing here? Maybe just needs a backport and would be easier to spot if only between 52 and 56

dslreports thread: Slow IPV6 1st. time connections to google.com

-------

SeaMonkey 2.53

IPV4, rather slow, ~1000 ms.
IPV6, not seeing SLOW (like SeaMonkey 2.49), but still rather slow, ~1000 ms.

But then FF 61 is doing rather poorly at the moment, ~800 ms.
And FF 52 is doing rather well, ~250 ms.
Waterfox is doing 14 requests in ~850 ms.
PM 28, 100 ms, 14 requests in 1.19 s.
PM 28, immediately following... 42000 ms, 15 request in 22.14 s, go figure! (First time I've caught anything like this in PM.)
& then another 42000.
& Waterfox is still fine.
253 still ~1000.
& PM 28 pulls another 42000.

Now how is any of this making any sense?

On the Win10 units, 1 is on 1803, 1 is older, both exhibiting the same behavior.
