Very true. From the data we've gathered at tummy, though, I'm not nearly as concerned about throughput as latency. Latency makes every connection to the database or to a proxy server that's not in the local colo much more expensive no matter how large or small the data returned. With tummy, in fact, I know that making fewer requests trumps the amount of data returned by a large margin.latency and throughput measure different things though, we'll have to test multiple things.
The bugzilla script I optimized today to work from tummy changed how I cached data from FAS. Before I was storing people information in a cache whenever a new person was found (This hits almost everyone in cvsextras once and only a handful who are not in cvsextras). The new cache requests all of the people in FAS in two requests (getting different information about all the users from each request). The old script took hours to complete. The new one finished in under 8 minutes. (Even when the script accessed the fas1 database directly it took hours to complete... although that ran from the Red Hat Boston office, rather than tummy).

If we deploy apps at telia it will be essential to minimize the number of requests if we want to keep things fast. -Toshio_______________________________________________ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
