Another update, but still no smoking gun yet:
* I've made my iterating faster by just running the search tasks, and
reusing the very-slow-to-create fixed-segments index. This could in theory
hide the smoking gun if somehow it is pre-index but that's hard to believe
(some system package somehow caused index to be written in a mysterious
massive-slowdown-while-searching yet passes the smell tests we do (e.g. at
least confirming index has same segment geometry as prior night)). I'll at
least check whether size of index changed.
* One thing I discovered is the JFR profiling we turn on in the nightly
tasks is non-trivial cost: it brings total QPS of each JVM from ~41-42 down to
~37-38, maybe ~7-12% impact. I'll try turning it off once benchy is up and
running again.
* I think I finally got all packages downgraded to rough timestamp of my
whole system update prior to the 1/29 update, and ran again, and things were
still slow. I hit scary problems -- there were some "malformed" PGP signatures
on packages, a known issue that was maybe a tra nsient gnupg issue (I had also
hit this on upgrading, I think on 1/29, maybe prior, as well). I tried the
published workarounds and never succeeded and instead asked pacman to "screw it
and barrel on through" with a scary `/etc/pacman.conf` eidt (ignore the bad
sigs, I know, not secure, but....!). I also hit confilcting files in the
filesystem, some of which pacman knew were a given package, others were
probably my fault hand-rolling Python package installs into the system python
(also not good practice!). Anyway, the system was still slow, but I hadn't
rebooted, so I rebooted and box is not coming back up. I'll try to resuscitate
once I'm home tonite...sigh.
So net/net this remains mysterious ... in theory that last test I did should
be identical to 1/22 config: same Lucene, same kernel, same java, same all
other system packages (but not rebooted -- so maybe something in there cared
about reboot).
