HI all, we've benchmarking pound for 1 month with high load request and we fix a memory leak (we send it to the list), but it seems to be ok.
we put pound in our production environment and now, every random days (from 1 to 7) we found pound not serving pages and it needs to be restarted. Our infrastructure is pretty simple: pound -> haproxy -> n web server. When pound is not responding, we see these information from logfile: > Sep 9 12:08:15 bil1 pound: (4332a940) connect_nb: error after getsockopt: > Connection refused > Sep 9 12:08:15 bil1 pound: (4332a940) backend 192.168.0.10:80 connect: > Connection refused > Sep 9 12:08:15 bil1 pound: (43d52940) connect_nb: error after getsockopt: > Connection refused > Sep 9 12:08:15 bil1 pound: (43d52940) backend 192.168.0.10:80 connect: > Connection refused it seems to be a problem of the service listening on 192.168.0.10 (haproxy), but we write a check script that, in case of failure, try a get from backend to haproxy directly, and it's responding well, so the problem seems to be pound. Another external check found a SSL connection timeout, and not a "service unavaiable" we have to see in case of all backends goes down. Another strange issue: we configure pound to use an emergency backup in case of failure on the primary haproxy: > # SSL section > ListenHTTPS > Address ssl_static1_mng > Port 443 > Cert "/etc/pound/ssl/cert.pem" > Ciphers > "ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:HIGH:MEDIUM:!LOW:!SSLv2:+EXP:!eNUL:!EXP-DES-CBC-SHA:!EXP-RC2-CBC-MD5:!EXP-RC4-MD5:!EXP-DES-CBC-SHA:!EXP-RC2-CBC-MD5:!EXP-RC4-MD5:!EXP-EDH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA" > Client 1500 > NoHTTPS11 0 > > Service > BackEnd > Address 192.168.0.10 > Port 80 > Timeout 30 > End > Emergency > Address 192.168.0.11 > Port 80 > End > End > End And, watching logs from pound we reported before, i didn't try to connect to the emergency backend. Customers using this service are running all the S.o. and all version of firefox/IE (from IE6sp2 to the new ones). What we can do? We cannot debug in a production environment, trying to run pound with valngrid is getting slow and slow, and we cannot have a closed beta-test in this moment. Can anyone help us?
