Sebastian Nagel created NUTCH-2946: -------------------------------------- Summary: Fetcher: optionally slow down fetching from hosts with repeated exceptions Key: NUTCH-2946 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2946 Project: Nutch Issue Type: Improvement Components: fetcher Affects Versions: 1.18 Reporter: Sebastian Nagel Assignee: Sebastian Nagel Fix For: 1.19
The fetcher holds for every fetch queue a counter which counts the number of observed "exceptions" seen when fetching from the host (resp. domain or IP) bound to this queue. As an improvement to increase the politeness of the crawler, the counter value could be used to dynamically increase the fetch delay for hosts where requests fail repeatedly with exceptions or HTTP status codes mapped to ProtocolStatus.EXCEPTION (HTTP 403 Forbidden, 429 Too many requests, 5xx server errors, etc.) Of course, this should be optional. The aim to reduce the load on such hosts already before the configured max. number of exceptions (property fetcher.max.exceptions.per.queue) is hit. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007)
