------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------
The timestamps are our main issue with this bug report. Adding RAM helped most 
of the applications (email is still slow, but it's also going out to an 
external server over the web to get mail via IMAPS.
Where the timestamps are concerned, it doesn't seem to matter what settings I 
try, I can not get timestamps to coincide with the system time. We are located 
in Arizona and it always appears 7 hours hehind the system time for posts in 
the forums, calendar and other areas that show timestamps. Email seems to be 
the only application that shows the correct time and that is probably due to 
the fact that it is hitting an external mail server located elsewhere on our 
domain and not related to (or even running) phpgroupware.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Category:  API - phpGWapi               Bug Group:  0.9.14 release              
Severity:  5 - Major                    Priority:  None                         
Resolution:  None                       Assigned to:  None                      
Status:  Open                           Component Version:  None                
Platform Version:  Linux - RedHat       Reproducibility:  Every Time            

Summary:  Timestamps  & Database issues

Original Submission:  I am running  phpgroupware 0.9.14 and have run the cvs 
update so that groupware will run under Apache 2.0.40 (see bug on registration 
and login pages not working(#1420 I believe) and are still having some problems 
with the system.

1) We have a problem with Timestamps on posts. The whole redhat 8 system is 
synced and set to MST (Arizona) timezone. Redhat and system time work fine 
using ntp. Groupware is setup to use port 13 but we have tried disapled (00) 
and http (80). Setting the timezone offset value appears to work erradically, 
but never stablizes on the same time. I have tried several offset values (-7 
which is MST in several other ntp implementations I am accustomed to) but to no 
avail. It's always right on the minutes, just a wrong hour.

2)Unless DB-Type is set to 'db' instead of PHP4 (for better performance) the 
user session management aspects do not appear to work. The 'current users' 
feature for admins always shows 0 and no session log data is available. 
Incidently, back to the time issue in this section, the login times and post 
timestamp times do both change as setting timezone offset value changes, but 
the two times never correspond with each other) 

3) Speed Issues: It is a relatively small system, roughly 40 users and maybe a 
max of 5 to 10 simultaneous. When getting more than 1 or 2 users, performance 
really drops. Using pgsql 7.2.2-1 on redhat 8. Is there some tuning that can be 
done to pgsql to speed groupware up? The machine is a Pentium class 300mhz with 
256 mb RAM and login times are 30-45 seconds with a single user. Screen changes 
are 15 seconds or so. This drops significantly with more than 2 users.

1) I am not sure about why this is happening

2) At the moment it is not possible to show current users under php4 sessions.  
I doubt the access log will ever show the user activity as it is designed not 
to use the db at all.

3) If you want a lot of activity i would suggest a serious server.  I used to 
run a 2xPIII-866 with 256M RAM and 2x40G HDD RAID 1.  It was slow but with 1G 
RAM it hums.  RAM RAM RAM and a gutsy processor would be my adivce.

Hope this helps
