We've left it at 2 for now which is creating a noticeable but moderate load - about 5% more db load. We shouldn't put it back up until we can do so without slamming them. The problem is that with 24 threads, being located in the same data centre as Launchpad, it can DOS Launchpad pretty effectively if it sends API requests as fast as it possibly can.
I'm working on bug 877856 making it do fewer bloody stupid api calls to Launchpad. We should possibly also have a semaphore that limits the number of outstanding requests across all processes. When the importer is mostly busy with its own work 24 may be ok. m _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
