[volunteergrid2-l] How's the grid

Sat Mar 3 18:41:29 UTC 2012

So, I'm doing some experimentation on this this morning, because I'm seeing
the same behavior.

Specifically, there is one node that appears to hang forever (or for a long
time; there's probably a timeout which I haven't out-waited) whenever my
node tries to send any requests to it.  Ted, it's your node :-)

What I'm doing to diagnose it is connecting to my node's web UI and
clicking on the "recent uploads and downloads" link (upper right corner).
 There I can see operations in progress and I can see their status.  What I
see is that whenever I get a failure, it's because node ej3fwcec is not
responding.  By looking on the home page, with the list of nodes, I can see
that this non-responsive node is stercor at gmail.com-timesoak.

I'm not sure what could be causing your node to be non-responsive.  I
suggest posting on tahoe-dev to get their help in diagnosing it.

Hmm.  I was just about to ask you to take it off-line until you figured it
out... but timesoak just started responding to me.  The several uploads
that were waiting for responses from it just completed, and now it seems to
be working well and responding fast.  Here are the response times for a
just-completed dirnode creations:

   - [aty4re3a]: 252ms
   - [baeq4skx]: 165ms
   - [ej3fwcec]: 123ms
   - [gbytbnxw]: 161ms
   - [g4xvpwqa]: 171ms
   - [hpd3hn75]: 225ms
   - [huadamis]: 274ms
   - [inxoy6ui]: 429ms
   - [jbrse33y]: 177ms
   - [kvj2xrmm]: 330ms
   - [pmitrhwg]: 44ms
   - [qivwuhf6]: 150ms
   - [yylsfc2k]: 379ms

pmi, at 44ms is the fastest, which isn't unexpected because it's my node so
there's no network latency.  Ted's, at 123ms is also quite fast.  inx and
yyl are in the Ukraine or similar, I believe, so their longer latency isn't
surprising.

I don't know what was happening at first, though.  It was very consistently
your node that was the delay, though.  Hmm.
