The CSPGatewayLatency alert indicates that the latency experienced in the CSP gateway exceeded the predefined maximum value. Here are the details:

  1. Understanding CSPGatewayLatency Alert: CSPGatewayLatency measures the delay involved in processing requests between the CSP gateway and your web server. The alert you received indicates that the latency has far surpassed the maximum allowable value (2000 ms), reaching values exceeding 5000 ms. This suggests a significant performance issue potentially caused by a delay in processing requests made to the web server or server-side resources [1][2].
  2. Relation to Server Response Timeout: While your suspicion linking CSPGatewayLatency to server response timeout is reasonable, these are distinct metrics. The Server Response Timeout is explicitly the maximum allowed time for the target InterSystems IRIS or Caché server to respond to incoming requests. On the other hand, CSPGatewayLatency is broader, detecting higher geometry dash game latency in communication specifically at the gateway level, which could result from multiple latency factors, not just server response time exceeding its timeout [1].
  3. Investigating and Managing This Alert: a. Check logs (e.g., WebGateway Event Log) for more in-depth details about what requests might be causing increased latency [3]. b. Examine server-side performance metrics to identify potential bottlenecks—this could involve queries or processes that exceeded the Server Response Timeout set in your configurations [1][2]. c. Assess current CSP Gateway configuration, such as limits on server connections (max connections restrictions) and adjust as needed [2].

Upon troubleshooting, you may identify that specific CSP requests or load on your server resulted in slow response times. You can address server-side bottlenecks, optimize database queries or increase relevant timeout thresholds cautiously.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. The distinction between CSPGatewayLatency and Server Response Timeout is especially helpful since they often get confused during troubleshooting.

if your VS Code with the InterSystems Language Server isn’t fetching the namespace list, and you’ve confirmed the namespace exists and api/atelier is enabled, the next things to check are usually around connection config +network/auth:

make sure settings.json has the correct server, port, scheme (http vs https), and snowrider credentials. even small typos or wrong case in username/password can block fetching.

try using “Choose Server and Namespace” in ObjectScript Explorer — sometimes the cached connection info trips the extension up.

check for any firewall or proxy on Ubuntu ARM64 that could be blocking the VS Code extension from reaching the web app.

confirm the extension version (2.8.0) is fully compatible with IRIS 2024.3; occasionally newer IRIS builds need the latest language server release.

basically, the extension looks fine, so it’s almost always a config or network hiccup, not a namespace/server issue.

Good troubleshooting checklist. I’ve also seen cached workspace settings cause weird namespace issues, so recreating the connection profile sometimes fixes it immediately.

extended is not the same as unlimited :-)

We're moving from 32-bit block numbers to 40-bit block numbers, which means the max size for a database with 8k block size is 8PB. Obviously, those are huge amounts of data, and we strongly recommend against just stashing that all in a single IRIS.DAT file,, if your file system permits such files at all. Multivolume database support already helps you spread data across multiple physical files (opaquely), and the new Table Partitioning support (experimental in 2026.1) helps you spread table data across multiple databases. 

If you wonder why we stuck with 40 bit numbers rather than a power of 2: we were able to reuse a few available bits in the current block header format, meaning you can transparently and instantly basketball stars upgrade to this Extended Database Format without having to migrate your almost-32TB database to a new block header format. And 8PB is quite large already...

That’s actually a very clever approach. Avoiding a painful migration while extending capacity to 8PB sounds like a practical engineering decision overall.
