Info WATO - CONFIGURATION → Global Settings → USER INTERFACE
Don't use 'Enable profiling by for all request'. This option will profile a Multisite request randomly and you and at the most of the time it will be the slowest one.
Install Python module
Code Block language bash root@cmk-VirtualBox:~# pip install snakeviz
Modify the URL to profile by adding '&_profile=1'
Code Block language bash http://localhost/nagnis_master/check_mk/view.py?view_name=allhosts&_profile=1
Now two files are created in ~/var/check_mk/
Code Block root@klappanas:/opt/omd/sites/nagnis_master/var/check_mk# ll |grep multisite -rw-rw---- 1 nagnis_master nagnis_master 100246 Nov 6 13:35 multisite.profile -rwxr-xr-x 1 nagnis_master nagnis_master 155 Nov 6 13:35 multisite.profile.py*
By executing 'multisite.profile.py' you can get runtime statistics about the last processed page
