Joan Touzet commented on COUCHDB-1874: -------------------------------------- The related BigCouch change: https://github.com/cloudant/fabric/pull/40 Again from IRC: bq. <+kocolosk> the fix in Apache CouchDB master would look different I guess, but I'll bet the root cause of the process mailbox filling up with 'db_updated' messages is the same > Continuous replication slows down over time > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: COUCHDB-1874 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1874 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Replication > Reporter: Joan Touzet > > As reported on the mailing list: > bq. > Did you specify "continuous": true in the replication spec? If you > did, do you see the same slowdown if you omit that flag? > bq. > This sounds rather similar to a bug we encountered in early builds of > BigCouch, but I don't remember the history of the codebase well enough to say > whether the bug might be latent in Apache CouchDB. > bq. Yes, I was using "continuous": true. > bq. You're right: When disabling "continuous", replication seems more stable > and efficient (1200 doc/sec).
