Gingerbread released last week, loads have been spiking to well above 300 on the frontend machines, RAM usage has been in the ~20G range (on machines with 16G of RAM), and we've been running an *AVERAGE* of 2000+ simultaneous GIT processes worldwide (normal is in the 100-200 range). Bonus points that we blew a drive on one of the machines yesterday. I don't think anyone was quite expecting the onslaught we have gotten this time around, and I'm going to have to make some changes before the next big release (mainly shifting Android over to the bigger machines) >>> Can you upload the diff-patch (patch-v2.6.37-rc6-next-20101220) to [1] >>> from your local-tree or place it somewhere else? >> >> I cannot upload directly to www.kernel.org, I up load to the same place >> on master.kernel.org and the mirroring system puts it on www.kernel.org. >> > > I could download the diff-patch. > > $ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/next/patch-v2.6.37-rc6-next-20101220.bz2 Running a quick set of stats against the logs we keep from the syncing I'm seeing: All of December: ------------------ Number of cycles: 5848 Total amount of time spent syncing: 1544407sec Average Sync times: 264sec Longest time: 24011sec Shortest time: 42sec Last 10 days: ------------------ Number of cycles: 2144 Total amount of time spent syncing: 845762sec Average Sync times: 394sec Longest time: 24011sec Shortest time: 45sec With cyclical patterns of fast and slow syncs. We seem to be (right now) in the middle of one of the slow cycles with the last few syncs taking a couple of hours each. The culprit, for at least the current sync, seems to be the box with the highest load and the blown drive, which I'm also reluctant to disable since it's still handling it's fair share of the load and dumping all of that onto the opposite US mirror would not be good either. - John 'Warthog9' Hawley -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
