Interesting. I'm running an ApacheBench run from a linux machine on the same LAN, specifying 2 million connections, up to 100 concurrently.
I'm getting some errors relating to all my ports being taken up with TIME_WAIT connections, but no other errors.
I did the test with siege, which is very good for load testing. So, any idea
on why we get fork() resource problems?
I tried once before (around 2.0.48, IIRC) and the results were not good.
Even under no significant load, many requests failed for no visible reason.
yep, that's the same I was observing. Unfortunatly I can "confirm"... via the
work on the Kannel gateway, that cygwin's pthread lib is broken...
unfortunatly no chance to give this a forensic analysis.
Are you going to go on with checking on the fork() problem Max? or intending
to package for shipping? ;)
The fork() problem doesn't happen for me, so there's not a lot I can do about it.
Therefore, I think it's time for me to take this from Pre-ITP to ITP.
