texte = Andrew enters from stage left, yells Buy a PC ... exits hurriedly.on a more serious not however...We did have this problem when we simulated intence traffic on a page with a search that would normally take 35-40/60's.If we hit it 16-20 times before the page completed and had 16-20 spawned processes runing, the cpu would slowly creep up and hit the big 197%. Once webcat gets like this i think it has a hard time over coming it and the search results never get returned.I think we have generally found that the engine is clever enough to restart itself on bad code but not on good code underload.Maybe you have a few new searches somewhere that are getting a bit of traffic and take a while to complete - or you could have a search on an include that includes itself.... been there, done that.all in all thou it becomes hard to track down the error because as webcat gets crazy - soo do the debug logs.I think we had this argument a while back when i said code shouldn't be able to bring down the server and i was told i was wrong - apparently it should.----- Original Message ----- From: Alain Russell To: WebCatalog Talk Sent: Wednesday, October 30, 2002 7:18 PM Subject: Re: Webcat run amuk > What OS are you running on the XServe .. > > I had a problem with 10.2.1 Server this morning on a G4 Server - the local > Netinfo database corrupted seemingly for no reason at all.
