--- Comment #6 from Ariel T. Glenn <ar...@wikimedia.org> --- I don't think the apaches overload. Typically Special pages don't get cached. On the live site Special:UserLogin is requested live every time from the apaches. And actually when I request it via curl directly from the apache in labs the response time is quite fast (1 second): curl -v -H 'Host: en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org' 'http://deployment-apache32/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin' > out > GET /w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin HTTP/1.1 > User-Agent: curl/7.22.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.22.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1 > zlib/1.2.3.4 libidn/1.23 librtmp/2.3 > Accept: */* > Host: en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org > 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:00:01 --:--:-- 0< HTTP/1.1 200 OK Additionally, when I try curl from my laptop: curl -v 'http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin' > out this times out, rather than giving me a hit: > GET /w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin HTTP/1.1 > User-Agent: curl/7.27.0 > Host: en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org > Accept: */* > 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:00:27 --:--:-- 0< HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable ... < X-Cache: deployment-cache-text1 miss (0), deployment-cache-text1 frontend miss (0) Still investigating. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
