Hi,

I've spent last week trying to optimize configuration as much as
possible. Following advise from a previous mail I've added:

    command_timeout: 600
    wserver_timeout: 30
    max_recover: 150

to my sksconf and it seems this fixed majority of the EventLoop
failures. I've added DB_CONFIG in KDB/PTree folders to get rid of DB
archive logs that were causing plenty of IO load too.

My clusters are now happily responding to queries and load-average is
bellow one. Traffic wise things look better too, ~20GB/day.


Kind regards,
Martin Dobrev

P.S. Adding/changing DB_CONFIG might cause an error in the databases
that you can easily fix by running

db_recover -e -v -h <path to SKS>/{KDB,PTree}
