Yonik Seeley updated SOLR-207: ------------------------------ Attachment: find_maxdepth.patch Updated patch: - switches back to "ls", - tries to determine if "maxdepth" is supported for the cleanup scripts that need to find -mtime - in snappuller, make the master find the latest snapshot instead of sending the complete "ls" across the network. This has not yet been tested. > snappuller inefficient finding latest snapshot > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-207 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-207 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Components: replication > Reporter: Yonik Seeley > Attachments: find_maxdepth.patch, find_maxdepth.patch > > > snapinstaller (and snappuller) do the following to find the latest snapshot: > name=`find ${data_dir} -name snapshot.* -print|grep -v wip|sort -r|head -1` > This recurses into all of the snapshot directories, doing much more disk-io > than is necessary. > I think it is the cause of bloated kernel memory usage we have seen on some > of our Linux boxes, caused > by kernel dentry and inode caches. Those caches compete with buffer cache > (caching the actual data of the index) > and can thus decrease performance. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
