We are using the nsv arrays of aolserver to handle a large load of queries. The application can be seen at
http://results.doitsports.com/lasalle/2004/ With that application, we handled 1.7 million queries in a day (using 5 servers). We put 21MB worth of data into 39 arrays. Under a lot of load, the nsd process swells (just soaks up all available RAM (which is 2G on each box)) and hangs. There is no thrashing going on; the SIZE is just barely bigger than the RSS under top. We are using aolserver 4.0 on Linux version 2.4.25-grsec and having a hard time figuring out what the ideal configuration would be. We have tried adjusting the folllowing paramters: nsvbuckets (we've tried 8, 16, 32, 64) maxthreads (currently 20) We have not tried adjusting: stacksize Does anyone have any idea what the ideal config would be for this app? What should we set nsvbuckets to? Maxthreads?
