- akerro 8y agoOr you know... just use gitlab.com...
- falcon620 8y agoI don't trust them to be compent at operating a large scale service after their insane meltdown february last year. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/01/gitlab_data_loss/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/01/gitlab_data_loss/
- Rjevski 8y agoUnrelated to that incident, but I feel their web UI to be extremely slow lately. Working with PRs (or "merge requests" as GitLab calls them) and CI pipeline is a pain, you're looking at 1 second response times.
- sytse 8y agoWe're not happy with the merge request speed either. We're close to converting the merge request view to Vue, this should speed it up considerably.
- Rjevski 8y agoTo me it doesn't look like it's a front-end issue. I am mainly complaining about the HTTP response time. It seems extremely slow on both pipelines and merge requests, and Vue ain't gonna fix that I'm afraid. I don't know if it's an optimisation issue with the software itself, or if it's just GitLab.com being overloaded..
- sytse 8y agoBecause we're loading everything in one go the database query time and rails rendering time adds up.
- akerro 8y agoYea totally, github is much more reliable. https://blog.github.com/2010-11-15-today-s-outage/ https://blog.github.com/2010-11-15-today-s-outage/
- SanDimasFootbal 8y agoBitbucket Cloud & Bitbucket Pipelines. Serverless CI/CD... as in, no servers for you to self-host.
- simcop2387 8y agoGogs/Gitea are my current goto for doing this. I expect one or both of them will get a lot of influx if github gets acquired. Gitlab will also see upticks, but I suspect it's a lot more than most people need/want to maintain.
