Thread: www.postgresql.org - current status
Morning Marc, OK, here's what's going on on the website: 1) Came in this morning to svr4 running slow to the point of timing out on web requests. 2) Disabled rsyncd which was using about 40% CPU on 4 connections. 3) Limited FTP connections to 10, and updated the message pointing to the mirrors page. 4) Barred a bandwidth hog who was mirroring the ftp site using about 20 connections at once. None of these made much difference, so I setup a primary server on borg.postgresql.org, and Magnus did one on eastside.wirebound.net. We can't update DNS so I added an Apache redirect to borg from svr4. That improved matters slightly, but borg was soon running like a dog. Setting the access_log to /dev/null made an incredible difference. The same change has also been made to www now, not that that makes much difference now. **** So, as soon as you get up, please update the DNS so that www.postgresql.org is a round robin between borg.postgresql.org and eastside.wirebound.net **** Thanks, Dave. PS, is your pager borked?
'k, DNS updated to point to all three servers, instead of just two, and apach config on svr4 updated accordingly ...

I've reenabled rsync on svr4 as well to make sure that the mirrors don't get expired. Regards, Dave.
