BLF Site-related Issues

What's that you say? You want another 200 threads? No problem :)

Yeah, it is hurting now. Timeouts are approaching 30%

54

Normally we have more anonymous users than logged-in users, and anonymous users usually get a cached version of the page that takes very little resources to serve up. So this is pretty impressive considering that the static HTML cache is disabled.

On pic heavy threads is usually where it seems to be the slowest for me. On the new server the entire thread and pics load incredible faster. I couldn’t tell you what’s making the difference but they are a huge difference for me. Tried it again just now as the torture test is being run and its about like normal BLF.

Shall I give this a shot. :P

wget -H -r —level=1 -k http://198.199.90.139

Do it!

MariaDB v10 seems pretty nice. Drop-in compatible with mySQL, performance improvements, and free of the shackles of Oracle.

62

Ok, it is now running. :)

Wonder why the threads went down?

64

I opened 33 pages, just refreshing them every few seconds now.
I’m not actually checking the speed of the site though, is it holding up well?

EDIT: scaru, i’m using the easy auto refresh add on, it’s quite good!

65

Honestly, probably because I backed off. Want me to hammer it again?

66

Yes...

67

It’s pretty slow now for me, just click on one link at a time. It’s because the Apache workers are all busy and a long waiting queue. I’m keeping those values fairly low to save RAM.

68

Check it now. I just turned up the heat a bit.

69

Sure! I’m interested to see if the OS will step in or if it will let the DB run it into the ground.

Okay I lowered it to refresh 5 pages every 3 seconds. However it still has about 25 pages to load up first from before.
From where I am in the house I get about 3-6mbps down speeds, so I may not be affecting it much.
