M3th0s 14 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Hello There's currently an issue with emby not playing nice with ombi. Ombi devs are saying that there were some API changes and therefore ombi is not playing nice anymore. The crux of the problem is that the moment it starts a sync job with emby, emby will slow to a crawl. https://github.com/tidusjar/Ombi/issues/2230 I'm more than happy to spin up my ombi and provide logs if it'll help resolve this. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbc0 61 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 @Luke made me aware of this yesterday, disabling my Ombi docker seems to have resolved the issue, wonder if the problem lies with Ombi or Emby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 It sends a large number of requests to your emby server over a short period of time. I would make sure it's not doing that during your primary usage hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would make sure it's not doing that during your primary usage hours. Just to update, no slowdown at all since stopping my Ombi Docker, I re-enabled all plugins listed in my previous post yesterday. I have messaged tidusjar on Discord a couple of days ago but no response yet. I guess this slowdown does not affect everyone? maybe due to large libraries?

M3th0s 14 Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 I think it depends on how large your library is. With smaller libraries it'll probably finish scanning quickly, therefore not impacting performance. I tried reaching out to tidusjar but he's adamant the issue is on emby's side and their apis.

ShadowKindjal 19 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 When are you guys experiencing this issue? I have an Emby library of about 100 TB but I'm not noticing any slowdowns with Ombi connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceb0610 0 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 The second I start the Ombi docker, page loads in Emby slow down and video takes longer to load. Overall responsiveness takes a dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37009 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 The truth is that the answer is probably a little bit of both. For the amount of data that's being pulled, some collaboration is likely needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastrmind11 717 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) hammering an API indiscriminately is not the API developers problem, it's the hammerers problem. this is coming from an API developer. i guess emby could rate limit API requests if you want to absorb some blame as well.

softworkz 3326 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I think the problem is that OMBI tries to be nice to Emby by querying data subsequently - only 200 items at a time, then processing the results, then querying the next 200 items . Unfortunately, this has just the opposite effect, as Emby doesn't have an in-memory cache for the results from which it would just need to return another 200 items on each subsequent call. Instead, each call for 200 items causes Emby to run the data query again, which is surely less expensive than a single query for all items, but just not in total. Example: With 20,000 library items, OMBI will need to make 100 API calls to get all items. And those 100 API calls are by far more expensive than a single API call for all items or maybe 10 API calls for 2,000 items each. My suggestion to the OMBI developer would be to use a significantly higher value like 5,000 or 10,000 items. This will improve things a lot. The described performance degradation will still happen, but unlike now, it won't last long anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
