I am experiencing a very slow ADO and mysqli connection for my production web server. The current software setup is windows 2008 server R2 Standard Edition SP1, Apache 2.4, PHP 5.3.10, MySql 5.5.24, Pear 1.94, Zend Engine version 2.30.
I've profiled the code using XDEBUG and it shows the initial connections taking around 1200ms each (regardless of page being visited), whereas on my local development machine and another test server the connections only takes around 8ms. The code for the website is all in sync through SVN except for the php, pear, mysql, and apache ini and conf files. I've done diffs on these to check for differences and there aren't any. The DB contents are a complete copy as well. Everything for the production server is hosted on the same machine so there aren't any firewall or internet issues.
The first connection profile has the following call stack:
ADOConnecton->Connect
ADODB_mysql->_connect
php::mysql_connect
The second one:
php::mysqli->mysqli
Any suggestions?
