Ok, we're back in business, with a snappier database too. Today I felt lucky so I also replaced the aging MySQL 5.1 with a shiny new MariaDB 10. Don't worry, MariaDB should be 100% backwards compatible, and we do daily dumps in case anything goes wrong.
I also deleted several *millions* of records from the database for old login sessions and logs of clone actions. You may have to login again, but Gitorious feels lot faster now. We still need to keep an eye at those evil XOs that keep reconnecting to network.sugarlabs.org. Icarito, can you look at implementing some form of exponential backoff? If the fix can't be deployed within a few days, we should defend ourselves with iptables rules or at least stop logging every connection. As always, please notify us if anything malfunctions. Note that alsroot said he would be offline until Apr 13.
