I'm starting to examine Amazon OpsWorks and created a stack with a database layer and 2 custom layers.
I put my cookbooks on a private git repository.
I'm wondering why machines used in my scenario are so damn slow !?
When booting the machines the first time it took around 15-30min until they are ready and even why I just start the task "update custom cookbooks" it takes 4(!!) minutes to fetch them from github.
I already red about creating custom AMIs for reducing boot time but then I have to remove the opsworks-agent.
Would I still be able to use the OpsWorks interface wehen removing the agent?



Do I miss something or is the process so slow for everyone? I'm using m1.small intances for testing purpose.

    It's very slow for me too, I've asked a similar question on the AWS forums and got no response :( You can look through the logs for a run and see the breakdown by time, but there's nothing obvious consuming more time than it should. Otherwise OpsWorks is great!

  • Probably depends on your target OS that you're trying to setup. I imagine a Windows-based system would take far longer to setup than something from the Linux realm.

Because ruby is compiled during the running_setup to run the opsworks-agent if you are using an O.S. without ruby 2.0.0 by default. (i.e. the Amazon Linux AMI has ruby 2.0.0 built in, so is faster than ubuntu for provision).
