It's just that with the increased budget, the size of each batch sent seemed to have increased too 2011-10-24 20:57:18+0000 <antoviaque> (actually adwords we had very few registrations at all - seem like card stories is a good match for the mindset of users of SU) 2011-10-24 20:57:35+0000 <antoviaque> actually what I'm impressed with is more with the retention we have on some players 2011-10-24 20:57:35+0000 <dachary> hum 2011-10-24 20:57:58+0000 <antoviaque> who keep coming almost every day, despite the complete lack of long-term game 2011-10-24 20:58:00+0000 <dachary> when you pay $20 do you know how fast it will be used ? 2011-10-24 20:58:04+0000 <antoviaque> no 2011-10-24 20:58:29+0000 <antoviaque> you know it will be used during the day, but you don't control when exactly it will arrive, and how many at once 2011-10-24 21:00:25+0000 <dachary> antoviaque: so $20 bought you 400 visitors and there were batches of 100 at a time ? 2011-10-24 21:00:56+0000 <antoviaque> there was one of 100, a few of 50 and 10s 2011-10-24 21:01:48+0000 <dachary> given the non-trivial look of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/cardstories.org i would recommend that you do the following: 2011-10-24 21:01:56+0000 <dachary> run apache on port 8080 instead of 80 2011-10-24 21:02:54+0000 <dachary> run nginx on 80 and add 2 proxypass : one to direct /resource to the cardstories daemon and the rest to apache 2011-10-24 21:03:09+0000 <antoviaque> I see, good idea 2011-10-24 21:03:12+0000 <dachary> this way you don't have to actually translate everything 2011-10-24 21:03:22+0000 <antoviaque> thanks for the tip : ) 2011-10-24 21:03:56+0000 <dachary> what kills you are the long polls anyway, the rest should be handled fine by apache with a fairly small footprint 2011-10-24 21:04:40+0000 <dachary> that being said, if you don't want to disapoint your visitors, I would suggest running a tsung test before doing it with human beings ;-) 2011-10-24 21:04:46+0000 <antoviaque> yep - there is django too, but I'll also tune apache, it must have too many processes for the memory available 2011-10-24 21:04:55+0000 * antoviaque looks up tsung test 2011-10-24 21:05:31+0000 <dachary> antoviaque: http://dachary.org/?p=386 explains how tsung was used to benchmark cardstories 2011-10-24 21:06:19+0000 <antoviaque> "Record one or more sessions: start the recorder with: tsung-recorder start, and then configure your browser to use Tsung proxy recorder (the listen port is 8090). A session file will be created.

For that it would help to reduce the memory of hackit.politis to 1GB instead of 4GB, unless it really needs it ? 2011-10-24 21:13:04+0000 <dachary> It may be overkill but it will help with the current situation. 2011-10-24 21:14:01+0000 <antoviaque> dachary: definitely - farsides doesn't require that much : ) 2011-10-24 21:14:02+0000 <dachary> also you apparently sent mail invitations 2011-10-24 21:14:13+0000 <antoviaque> thanks for this : ) 2011-10-24 21:14:27+0000 <antoviaque> mail notification from the blog yep 2011-10-24 21:14:35+0000 <dachary> I'm on it 2011-10-24 21:15:20+0000 <dachary> antoviaque: permission to reboot hackit.politis.vm.gnt ? 2011-10-24 21:15:38+0000 <antoviaque> let me check 2011-10-24 21:16:21+0000 <antoviaque> dachary: yep np :) 2011-10-24 21:16:27+0000 <antoviaque> thanks : ) 2011-10-24 21:17:20+0000 <dachary> ok 2011-10-24 21:18:49+0000 <antoviaque> btw the bugfix for players who didn't vote seem to work well, happened many times today :) 2011-10-24 21:18:58+0000 <antoviaque> much clearer and fair 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 tartarugafeliz (tartarugafeliz) is now online 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 MCMic (MCMic) is now online 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 dachary (dachary) is now online 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 antoviaque (antoviaque) is now online 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 J-Mad (J-Mad) is now online 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 xrogaan (xrogaan) is now online 2011-10-24 22:00:11+0000 blanchard (blanchard) is now online _______________________________________________ Farsides mailing list - [email protected] Wiki: http://farsides.com/ List: http://farsides.com/ml/ Forum: http://farsides.com/forum/ Ideas: http://farsides.com/ideas/ Chat: http://farsides.com/chat/
