Yes, both use Keystone with SQL backend

No, i didn't found it.

I have nova-conductor process run on Controller node, but seem nova-compute
don't use this.

Old:
Run 1st time:
real    *0m2.494s*
user    0m0.112s
sys     0m0.040s
2nd time:
real    *0m0.279s*
user    0m0.112s
sys     0m0.020s


New:
Run 1st time:
real    *0m1.687s*
user    0m0.176s
sys     0m0.012s
2nd time:

I can sum up that all services & API are HA-ed using HAproxy, RabbitMQ
Cluster, Database replication, v.v...

This morning, i just do some tuning memcached for Dashboard service (HA-ed
using HAProxy), then my Dashboard become faster significantly.

The questions remain are:
1. Why metadata query so slow? Possible problems? ( "curl
http://169.254.169.254/openstack" took 2.5-5 seconds to complete,
"ec2metadata" took 14-17 seconds to complete - i tested many times.)
2. Why API calls using *-client reduce time from 2nd time on my old Essex
deployment, but not on my new Grizzly deployment? Maybe I need some "cache"
settings?

Thank you very much!
