Technical News and SETI@home daily stats for 29.03.2007.

[Rattledagger]

We never did claim to have totally solved the "slow feeder query" problem plaguing us a month ago (and well before that). The adjustments we made to the database and the way we set up our queries have helped, but last night and well into today mysql fell back into its old habits again. We have a policy to not care about this anymore as we don't have the time, the problem is relatively transient, and we'll be upgrading mysql versions soon enough. My gut tells me this is caused by some kind of mysql housecleaning that gets tickled every so often depending on load.

Aside from that we went ahead with our changes to the science database and employed new solaris versions of the assimilators and splitters. Later (i.e. tomorrow or beyond) we'll install linux versions of the assimilators and validators (thus getting the last remaining backend bits off of kryten). One thing at a time, folks.

The validator queue was growing again. Seems like kryten perhaps needed a reboot to clear its network pipes so I did that. Now the queue is draining. Damn pesky mounts! Soon the validators will run on bruno, i.e. the same machine with the result files. That'll be much better.
