Subversion (Aug 30 2007)

There's been some download server starts/stops over the past 24 hours as we've been tweaking certain parameters trying to squeeze as much throughput as we can from of our current set of servers. Don't be surprised if this trend continues throughout the weekend. Meanwhile I took care of several chores. Namely we finally unhooked our old gigabit switch, which was a private network containing a subset of our servers in the closet, as opposed to our newer gigabit switch, which currently handles transactions between all the servers. The functionality of this older switch was historic and since rendered obsolete, so it was nice to finally get around to the ethernet un-plumbing and remounting of various network partitions (this explains one of the network traffic dips yesterday afternoon). I also got to permanently yank a half dozen cables out of the closet - reduction makes me happy.

Eric is back in town, so we got together with Jeff and Josh and worked back up to speed on various software projects. We all have a lot of mundane build environment cleanup ahead of us. For example converting from cvs to svn. Somebody asked why we were doing this. Well, svn is better at handling large repositories where we are frequently adding/removing whole directories full of stuff. Plus it folds in much better with various web-based tracking software suites, which will make remote user management much easier and secure. Right now we have a rather wonky setup to allow for secure anonymous downloads of the code via cvs and I really would like to put that system to rest.
