GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 640546
Use cron jobs to automatically process Piwik stats
Last modified: 2012-02-20 09:34:32 UTC
webstats.gnome.org is *dogslow* when accessing stats the first time. For such a big website, on-demand number crunching should be disabled and replaced by a cron job (this is the official method). See: http://piwik.org/docs/setup-auto-archiving/ http://piwik.org/faq/general/#faq_38 To increase perf, it is also possible to purge raw logs older than 30 days: http://piwik.org/faq/troubleshooting/#faq_42
Bump?
Done. I ran archive.sh manually for the very first run (it took some hours) and then setup a cronjob for doing the archiving every hour. Let me know if you need anything else.
