Yes, purely out of curiousity I'd be interested in what's happening behind the scenes. Is memory being leaked? Is garbage collection (assuming it's used) not good enough? Is it a deliberate design choice for HN?
- jacquesm 17y agoTry to retrieve the posting histories of the top 10 of the leaderboard, see if they all come up for you without weirdness happening. I can't get it to work, some will work, some will give blank pages and sometimes the server seems to restart. Would be nice to see what someone else gets.
- streety 17y agoI retrieved the comment histories of the top 10 users without a single glitch. I don't follow any particular users so don't view the comments pages all that often so can only comment on this occasion but no problems encountered this time.
- jacquesm 17y agoSo yours worked and andrews failed 30% of the time. That's even weirder. So maybe once a page has been built recently it then works flawlessly for a bit ?
- jacquesm 17y agotcpdump to the rescue, it seems that I'm getting a lot of RST packets from the server. This may indicate that the socket accept queue is overflowing from time to time. So they're not restarts, they just look like restarts.
- andrew1 17y agoThree out of the ten failed for me.
