Is there any way in nodebb to see the log for each request? I find the ./nodebb log gives rare information.

In a parent category I have plenty of subcategories, larger than 100. If show all of them at home page, It looks ugly.

@xidui said in socket.io log flooding:

I added this config:

"socket.io": {
    "transports": ["websocket"]
}

The flooding error seems less than before. But still need to monitor over several days.

The performance seems better after I applied this change in config.

1. Behaviors before change:

   • Most of the logs are io emit timeout or io emit transport close . Only very rare portion (less than 10 percent) of requests successfully processed.
   • Every time I restart the site it can not response for about 5 minutes or longer even I see in the log that process has already listened to 4567.
   • Some of the socket.io/EIO?xxxx requests failed at client side.

2. Behaviors after change:

   • No io emit timeout was found ever
   • io emit transport close still exists, about 50% or less at peak hour and 10% at valley hour.
   • The site is fast enough at peak hour and it can recover quickly even I restart.
   • None of the requests failed at client side.

@administrators
I think my issue has accidentally and surprisingly solved by this small change temporarily. I wonder why and is this config recommended or ["polling", "websocket"] is better? And do you have some idea on the root cause of the issue when I use ["polling", "websocket"]?

We have made this plugin. Try it and having fun~

@AOKP
Thank you for your offer. After the change in this issue, my mongo db has not went down until now. It seems to be more stable.
