So, I spent most of the day troubleshooting a website that drastically slows down when ‘a browser looks at it funny’…
Usually it behaves fine - it’s not the volume of requests, my teammates think it’s something about the kind of requests. But they’re struggling to get the logging properly configured.
I’m an EUC engineer (p.o.s. website requires IE11 and ActiveX controls - yay healthcare!), so mostly helping on the sidelines, but I’m looking for some ‘supportive’ suggestions…
If you have access to the servers backend, run a packet capture and see what requests are coming in.
