Test it carefully before to use it with a new extension release. See Overview section below for more details. Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require lcatlett/newrelic-guzzle-client ``` That's all! The script is automatically imported thanks to [Composer autoloader](https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#files). ### Without Composer [](#without-composer) ℹ️ You can also copy the file [`NewRelicGuzzle.php`](NewRelicGuzzle.php) and include directly in your project. For example, WordPress sites not using Composer can add this file by adding a `require(/path/to/newrelic-guzzle-client/NewRelicGuzzle.php)` at the top of `wp-config.php`. Overview -------- [](#overview) The [newrelic extension](https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-php-agent) [defines a Php function](https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-php-agent/blob/3f93ee47f80703d46d8fccd53be7d6b80361a594/agent/lib_guzzle6.c#L433-L461), a [Guzzle](https://github.com/guzzle/guzzle) middleware to report some metrics on each requests sent from Php. The current implementation of the New Relic agent extension registers the Guzzle middleware on every new client instance and wraps the request in `curl_exec` rather than `curl_multi_exec` or a stream. This results in performance issues and memory exhaustion as middleware is re-registered on every request which are then wrapped into a single call. Issues seen on Pantheon customer sites include increased memory usage and request times, particularly for requests intended to be asyncronous actually being blocking calls. These bottlenecks can often be seen in the Pantheon application container `php-slow.log` files where `newrelic\Guzzle6` is invoked: ``` [20-Mar-2024 01:14:07] [pool www] pid 10017 script_filename = /code/web//index.php [0x00007f9e4ee17230] curl_exec() /code/vendor/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/Handler/CurlHandler.php:40 [0x00007f9e4ee17190] __invoke() newrelic/Guzzle6:1 [0x00007f9e4ee16ff0] newrelic\Guzzle6\{closure}() /code/vendor/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/Middleware.php:233 [0x00007f9e4ee16f50] GuzzleHttp\{closure}() /code/vendor/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/HandlerStack.php:71 [0x00007f9e4ee16ec0] __invoke() /code/vendor/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/Client.php:351 [0x00007f9e4ee16db0] transfer() /code/vendor/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/Client.php:112 [0x00007f9e4ee16d30] sendAsync() /code/vendor/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/Client.php:129 [0x00007f9e4ee16cb0] send() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api_pantheon/src/Services/PantheonGuzzle.php:92 [0x00007f9e4ee16c40] sendRequest() /code/vendor/solarium/solarium/src/Core/Client/Adapter/Psr18Adapter.php:66 [0x00007f9e4ee16ae0] execute() /code/vendor/solarium/solarium/src/Core/Client/Client.php:846 [0x00007f9e4ee16a30] executeRequest() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api_pantheon/src/Services/SolariumClient.php:61 [0x00007f9e4ee169b0] executeRequest() /code/vendor/solarium/solarium/src/Core/Client/Client.php:817 [0x00007f9e4ee168e0] execute() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api_pantheon/src/Services/SolariumClient.php:49 [0x00007f9e4ee16860] execute() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api_solr/src/SolrConnector/SolrConnectorPluginBase.php:974 [0x00007f9e4ee167d0] execute() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api_solr/src/SolrConnector/SolrConnectorPluginBase.php:938 [0x00007f9e4ee16730] update() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api_solr/src/Plugin/search_api/backend/SearchApiSolrBackend.php:1129 [0x00007f9e4ee165e0] indexItems() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api/src/Entity/Server.php:350 [0x00007f9e4ee16510] indexItems() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api/src/Entity/Index.php:994 [0x00007f9e4ee163c0] indexSpecificItems() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api/src/Entity/Index.php:930 [0x00007f9e4ee16290] indexItems() /code/web/modules/contrib/search_api/search_api.module:116 ``` The above example is when the Pantheon Search API indexes content.
