Freedesktop.org uses it side by side with gitweb. I wonder how it would perform on kernel.org... (Almost) every optimization should begin with profiling. Could you tell us which gitweb pages are most called and perhaps which pages generate most load for kernel.org? How new projects are added (old projects deleted)? Do you control (can add to or can add multiplexing) to update or post-receive hooks? Without this data we could concentrate on things which are of no importance. BTW. I wonder if slitting projects_list page would help... -- Jakub Narebski Poland - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
