Hello,
We have our website on Azure App Services; Web App and using S2.
Umbraco version 7.4.1.
I followed the instructions in the article "Running Umbraco on Azure Web Apps". However, the site periodically gets high response times (over 20s, sometimes over 1 min).
The additional strange thing is when the response time is high, not many requests coming in. I looked into App Insights and seems issues with Umbraco but can't say for sure since I don't have a lot of experience with App Insights.
Does it make sense to upgrade to latest Umbraco version?
An Umbraco upgrade might help. One thing I experienced was that some pages would take over a minute to load. I eventually found out it was because Azure doesn't like something about how ImageProcessor caches images. Once I configured ImageProcessor to store cached images outside of the web root, pages started loading in a couple seconds rather than over a minute. Might be worth a shot in your case. And that may require an ImageProcessor upgrade.

Nicholas, are you using the Azure storage provider for the media files?
Nope.
@Nicholas Westby, thanks for the response. I'll try to upgrade. Though, wish me luck...haven't upgraded Umbraco before .
@John Berman, Do you have info on setting up the storage provider for media files?
Be sure to backup all the things (code, files, database). Many things can go wrong in an Umbraco upgrade.
is working on a reply...
