Re: Multi-Theading writes to the same 389 Master Server

[Jeffrey Dunham <jeffrey.a.dunham@xxxxxxxxx>]

So following your advice I was able to get some stack traces while the server was hanging/slow to respond.  This is from one of our search hosts.

I have shortened it here considerably because we do have customer data that is present, I can do some more scrubbing later if it will help.

Seems to me to be revolved around indexes, I know we increased our allidslimit pretty high to 500000, I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it.

Out of the 30 worker threads 28 of them are in a state like:

Another thing you might try :

While the server is under stress, run the "pstack" command a few times and save the output.

gdb will give much more detail

If you post the thread stacks here, someone familiar with the code can say with more accuracy what's going on. For example it will be obvious whether you have starved out the thread pool, or you have threads mostly waiting on page locks in the DB, etc.
