[Toolserver-l] Fast local storage
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, A feature we may provide to users in the future is servers with fast local (not NFS) storage for use by tools. This would be something like user-store, except per-server. This storage would be redundant (RAID), but not backed up. If anyone feels like they may make use of this, it would be useful to know exactly how you plan to use it, e.g. how much storage you would need and for how long, as well as the sort of tasks it would be used for. - river. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkzkYpAACgkQIXd7fCuc5vJDygCghiTRX+/t62T4aAudXo0MoX1F hCcAn22PuG2jWQCUnirte70sUwx2A/j4 =qPZo -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Toolserver-l mailing list (Toolserver-l@lists.wikimedia.org) https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/toolserver-l Posting guidelines for this list: https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Mailing_list_etiquette
Re: [Toolserver-l] Fast local storage
Hi, I can imagine a use of this for everything that uses the static or xml dumps, as well as unpacking or packing large files. Working with large files over NFS sucks *ss.
