This Mornings Gateway Timeouts
-
You might have seen some today. I'm trying to track down what is happening. From what I can tell, it has something to do with people hitting the Random Anything Goes thread. When browsing other threads, things work fine. Screaming fast, in fact. Hit that thread and the CPU spikes to 100% and holds for five to ten minutes. I'm only seeing the behaviour with that one thread so I think that there is a bug in the code that is being hit there. I'm going to keep an eye on it but if possible, let's not browse that thread today. I'll let support guys at NodeBB know.
-
I thought its just our internet connection is slow.
-
Nope. Real issue.
-
It's other threads too, unless someone hitting that thread brings the whole site to a crawl. Check if any cron jobs are running that are spiking it at the same time each day.
-
I'm getting this issue also when I click on the unread box icon.

That's where I got it too. That's where it was worst for me.
-
Does it only seem to do this in the US mornings?
-
No, it happens anytime.
But if someone hitting that thread spikes the CPU to 100% then that will affect performance for the entire system. So other issues simply could be related to someone else browsing that thread.
-
Yeah. Can't be just one thread I think though.
-
It happens mostly in the morning, but has happened at all times of the day and night for me in the past.
-
Another timeout
-
I turned up the logging rate on the system. Hopefully we will see something telling.
So far this morning it seems to be doing well.
-
I'm really anxious for NodeBB to get the next version out of the door. It has been a while on 0.4.3.
-
I almost never seem to run into this but I will post when it does. Maybe that will help.
-
Yes that will help. Some correlation might be useful.
-
Did some more testing. No question it is certain threads. I only know of the one for now, but any attempt to post there brings the site down. So please no one attempt to do that.
-
Topic is locked until there is a fix. If anyone suspects any other topics of having this issue, let me know.
