Title: Message Title

Chris Webster updated an issue   Puppet Task Runner / BOLT-1528 Bolt returning json data for many nodes causing memory contention and very slow bolt task runs. Change By: Chris Webster Bolt returning json JSON data for many nodes can cause the local system to use an excessive amount of memory. This does not cause the bolt Bolt run to fail but causes the run to stall and take much longer to complete the more nodes being executed on. We have requested that they verify this theory by monitoring memory usage during a bolt task run but have not received a response to that request. As seen with this ticket a local run of the Powershell script completes in 30 seconds. Running with bolt Bolt on 40 servers it takes 20 to 30 minutes and can result in inconsistent errors. Adding more agents only makes the issue whorse worse . Lowing concurrency from 100 to 25 did not have any effect on performance as reported by the client.   ~* Please see Zendesk Support tab for further comments and attachments.~ Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
