Morning Folks, As most of you know there were a few people who had the following three bugs: * CLOSE_WAIT: Lots of sockets in CLOSE_WAIT state. * 99% CPU: Mongrel''s getting "stuck" pegged at 99% CPU. * LEAK: Memory leak. I''ve successfully fixed these bugs or attributed them to one main cause: pstore. First, the memory leak was because of a bug in how the GC in Ruby

What''s a rule of thumb for guesstimating how many Mongrels to use in a cluster for an app? I have an app that gets about 5000 unique visitors per day. I figured I''d give it plenty of Mongrels -- twenty to be specific. After running out of memory and hitting the swap periodically, I scaled it back to five and it still seems to serve up visitors fine. So, is there some super-secret

Configuration: (2) Dual Core Opterons 8GB RAM Apache used to balance 40 mongrel instances We receive Application 500 Errors. Nothing suspect appears in the log, so we are at a lost as to what to do next. Any advice would be welcome and/or an explanation of what types of things cause Application 500 Errors in mongrel. Thanks! - Jared Brown -------------- next part -------------- An HTML

It appears that part of the problem could be that when logger rolls over the mongrel log file. There is a mutex synchronization issue where the various mongrel instances all try to write to the new log file and block each other. This keeps them in a continual Application 500 Error state. Has anyone run into this problem? With log rotation turned off the problem does not appear. - Jared Brown

Can anyone share any links regarding packages to do Call Detail Record (CDR) analysis from the CDR Master file? Login-distance reconciliation, billback, and data presentation are three primary areas of interest.

I have a couple questions... I am in Indiana and our time zone is changing. I used to choose America/Indiana/Indianapolis as the zone and we are changing to Eastern. Question 1) Is there a command line only way to change my timezone? I dont have access to X to run system-config-time.

Hey all, First off, thanks to Rick Olson and whoever else was involved with this plugin... It''s been amazingly easy to implement. I''ve got a question about the path_info parameter, though... It seems that unless the request PATH_INFO exactly matches the path_info passed in to the plugin at inclusion, it won''t actually trigger Add and add the upload to the list of

Most of my machines have apache+mongrel running but the mongrels are using the localhost. In my production environment, I have 4 boxes. I have setup 2 http servers ( apache 2.2.4 ) and 2 app servers.

Hi! I''ve been following the new mongrel tuneup guide (a huge thanks for that btw) and here are my results.
