Nguyen Manh Tien commented on NUTCH-1314: ----------------------------------------- [~lewismc] We are using NUTCH-1314-v3.patch > Impose a limit on the length of outlink target urls > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-1314 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1314 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ferdy Galema > Fix For: 2.3 > > Attachments: NUTCH-1314-trunk.patch, NUTCH-1314-v2.patch, > NUTCH-1314-v3.patch, NUTCH-1314.patch > > > In the past we have encountered situations where crawling specific broken > sites resulted in ridiciously long urls that caused the stalling of tasks. > The regex plugins (normalizing/filtering) processed single urls for hours, if > not indefinitely hanging. > My suggestion is to limit the outlink url target length as soon possible. It > is a configurable limit, the default is 3000. This should be reasonably long > enough for most uses. But sufficienly strict enough to make sure regex > plugins do not choke on urls that are too long. Please see attached patch for > the Nutchgora implementation. > I'd like to hear what you think about this. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.4#6159)
