mongodb find query getmore operation hangs - mongodb

We are running MongoDB 3.0.2 on Linux.
The "getmore" operation for a find query periodically hangs.
The operation is available currentOp(), and one item I cannot explain is that all the acquireCount values in lockStats continue to grow while the query hangs (for Global, MMAPV1Journal, Database, and Collection).
This is the operation in question, at this point running for more than 1000 secs, returned by db.currentOp() :

"threadId" : "0x2a99ee0",
"connectionId" : 60,

Any insights would be much appreciated ! Thank you in advance.

MongoDB performing slow read-queries under load

I'm running a MongoDB on my VPS. Two instances of the same python bot are constantly reading and writing documents. Essentially, they continously repeat the following steps infinitely:
Get a document using find_and_modify() (no i cannot use find() here)
process data fetched in step 1 (takes 10-60 seconds)
update document using find_and_modify() (no i cannot use update() here)
This worked flawlessly until I deployed a REST API web server to view the results in the browser etc. Now whenever the bot instances and the web server are running at the same time, the bots slow down by minutes and a request to my web server takes 2 minutes. When either the bots or the web server are/is running, they both query the database within milliseconds.
Before I think about upgrading my VPS' RAM and CPU, I would like to understand what exactly causes this. I assume the problem lies in the database being overwhelmed with the amount of requests from the 3 clients (2 bot instances, 1 web server).
I found the command currentOp(), but I'm having issues understanding its return.

As you can see there are two operations in the pipeline. The one with secs_running: 123 is the web server, the other one is one of the bot instances, which takes about 10-20 seconds when the web server is running in parallel.
What could be the cause for my problem and how can I solve it? Thank you in advance.

MongoDB stuck creating index with "Index Build: draining writes received during build" message

I have 4 rows in the test collection:
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f4ce50e19b13337216dd477"), "test" : 1 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f4ce50e19b13337216dd478"), "test" : 2 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f4ce50e19b13337216dd479"), "test" : 3 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f4ce50e19b13337216dd47a"), "test" : 4 }
After running db.test.createIndex({test:1},{background:1}); to create an index, it just hangs. It was hanging for at least a few hours. Here is what I found in the db.currentOp() about this operation:

This Index Build: draining writes received during build makes no sense since there was no read/writes to the test collection during index creation.
Also index creation hangs only in non-empty collection. Index creates successfully in empty collection.
What might be an issue in this case? I'm out of ideas.
Finally figured it out with the help of MongoDB team.
The node can't communicate with itself so it will hang trying to commit the index build. This was the reason. Adding keyfile fixed the issue:
rm -f mongo.keyfile
openssl rand -base64 756 > mongo.keyfile
chmod 400 mongo.keyfile
bin/mongod --config mongo.conf --keyFile mongo.keyfile

How does a Pageable request works?

I have a Pageable request which query for about 1.6 millions documents and each request limit the response to 1000 documents. The query use an index... Well at least it should... I'm using db.currentOp() to look for the request that takes a while to process. When I launched the query (yesterday at 01:00PM) it used the index for each portion of 1000. But it seems that at some point he decided not to use it anymore... And I can't figure out why...
I also have a command operation for the same query and it is using the index.

Mongodb: high acquire database lock

I face a problem which connected with MongoDb performance. Queries are tens of seconds and by means of command db.currentOp() I can see, that all my queries are waiting database lock. For example:
just simple query
"desc" : "conn36316",
"threadId" : "7420",
"connectionId" : 36316,
"client" : "127.0.0.1:34538",
"active" : true,
"opid" : 197242270,
"secs_running" : 190,
"microsecs_running" : NumberLong(190574655),
"op" : "query",
"ns" : "db.items",
"query" : {
"find" : "items",
"filter" : {
"$msg" : "query not recording (too large)"
}
},
"numYields" : 92,
"locks" : {
"Global" : "r",
"Database" : "r"
},
"waitingForLock" : true,
"lockStats" : {
"Global" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(186)
},
"acquireWaitCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(1)
},
"timeAcquiringMicros" : {
"r" : NumberLong(24392)
}
},
"Database" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(93)
},
"acquireWaitCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(53)
},
"timeAcquiringMicros" : {
"r" : NumberLong(60099891)
}
},
"Collection" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(92)
}
}
}
build index query
"desc" : "TTLMonitor",
"threadId" : "12592",
"active" : true,
"opid" : 958,
"op" : "none",
"ns" : "",
"query" : {
},
"numYields" : 0,
"locks" : {
"Global" : "r",
"Database" : "r"
},
"waitingForLock" : true,
"lockStats" : {
"Global" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(4)
}
},
"Database" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(2)
},
"acquireWaitCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(1)
},
"timeAcquiringMicros" : {
"r" : NumberLong("3571165481")
}
},
"Collection" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(3)
}
}
}
As you can see waiting for acquiring lock takes enormous time. For common query it equals 60 sec., and for index it equals 3571 sec.!
My work computer can create similar index much faster that it can be create on server.
My server is virtual machine with 10 cores, 40GB of memory and disk is raid1 array.
I'm using MongoDb version 3.2.6 (WiredTiger).
What could be the problem? How can I diagnose the problem?
My problem was the low speed disk subsystem, the replacement of the ssd according to the official documentation solved the problem

mongodb 3.0 global lock when updating a single document

looking at different mongodb operations i found out that mongodb 3.0 , WT engine, is generating many different locks , sometimes even upgrading to global lock like the following:
{
"desc" : "conn4981286",
"threadId" : "0x113f133400",
"connectionId" : 4981286,
"opid" : -371204669,
"active" : true,
"secs_running" : 0,
"microsecs_running" : NumberLong(377),
"op" : "update",
"ns" : "xxx",
"query" : {
"_id" : ObjectId("56c82738ccb2d079eec4867c")
},
"client" : "xxx",
"numYields" : 0,
"locks" : {
"Global" : "w",
"local" : "w",
"Database" : "w",
"Collection" : "w"
},
"waitingForLock" : false,
"lockStats" : {
"Global" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"r" : NumberLong(2),
"w" : NumberLong(2)
}
},
"Database" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"w" : NumberLong(2)
}
},
"Collection" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"w" : NumberLong(1)
}
},
"oplog" : {
"acquireCount" : {
"w" : NumberLong(1)
}
}
}
},
why would an update generate all of these locks?
thanks!
