I'm meeting two chaps from OGMK on Wednesday evening. They are curious about how we do things on OGL, and about the OpenGuides community in general, and the big picture.
The plan is to rendezvous at the Head of Steam, 7pm, and go for a curry on Drummond Street.
Anybody from the OGL crew is welcome to join us. Please respond off-list.
My mobile number is 07881 858544.
Ivor.
London's server is apparently being brought to its knees by the OpenGuides
code. I'm taking it offline until we can come up with a solution.
Unfortunately due to an illness in the family and various commitments I am
not able to spend any time on the matter. I will however implement any
suggestions/patches I'm sent as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Earle

Subject: OGL load - ACTION NEEDED
Folks,
I need the OGL devs to implement a bypass for index.cgi and
supersearch.cgi and whatever else that will display a "max load
exceeded; please try later" page when the load gets above a certain
point. I suggest a threshold of 3.0.
Here's the context,
6345 www-data 20 0 8800 8796 1620 R 9.5 0.9 0:00.42 index.cgi
6329 www-data 19 0 16592 16m 2520 R 9.2 1.6 0:00.95 index.cgi

Everyone now and then Pg gets wedged and the load flies up. When this
happens OGL needs to back off.
I would really appreciate this happening ASAP. By ASAP I really do mean
the literal "as soon as possible". Please keep me updated!
(Sys::Load has a trivial interface, btw.)
Thanks, Paul
