Description
After the latest stable update we have seen significant increase in poller times to Juniper MX104 devices. Before the upgrade the poller took about 100 seconds to complete and after the upgrade it takes about 260 seconds.
I made rollback to previous release (r11678) and the poller times are down to what they used to be.
Juniper MX104 routers are running version 19.4R1.10
Related issues/data
Large QFX virtual chassis fabrics (>2 members) are seeing jumps in polling times after ports_separate_walk was forced on for JUNOS after 17.x (r11719). Will test again by forcing ports_separate_walk enabled to see if that helps in this case. Small QFX Virtual Chassis (2 members) actually improved performance with ports_separate_walk disabled.
Enabling ports_separate_walk lets us work around a bug with JUNOS EVO 20.4R3 on PTX1000[13] where GET'ing multiple OIDs in a single request causes some counters not to increment between polls.
