Hi everyone I am using the official Docker image of CouchDB, v3.1.0.
I created a couchdb.ini file in which I put my custom CouchDB parameters. I know this file is taken into account by CouchDB because I checked in Fauxton/Configuration and my custom settings are shown. The configuration is default except that I added this: [couchdb] single_node = true Now, I want to limit autocompaction to a time window from 04:00 am to 5:30 am, and I want this to be as strict as possible. So I added these parameters in the same file: [smoosh.overnight_channel] from = 04:00 to = 05:30 strict_window = true Then I started to insert 3 millions of documents in one database one by one using ApacheBench like this: ab -r -n 3000000 -c 1000 -p data.json -T "application/json" -A admin:password "http://localhost:5984/benchmark"; and "data.json" contains: { "text": "Some text" } It works very well, I get about 10,000 inserts/s. But very quickly an autocompaction task is run and slows everything down to about 2,000 inserts/s. I checked that in Fauxton/Active tasks/All tasks, there are clearly a couple of compaction jobs running that I never asked for. The thing is: I'm not doing all this between 4am and 5:30am and the time of my computer is right. So it looks like the restriction to the time window doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong or missing something? Thanks. Kind regards, Baptiste Rebillard
