thread pools will flush their cached (dead) threads after 60 seconds.
This will cause that YaCy now runs constantly withl about 50 threads,
about 100 at peak times. Previously, about 400 threads had been cached
and kept in a hibernation state, which caused that the numproc counter
in /proc/user_beancounters (exists only in VM-hosted linux) was as high
as the cached number of threads. This caused that VM supervisors
terminated whole VM sessions if a limit was reached. Many VM providers
have limits of numproc=96 which made it virtually impossible to run YaCy
on such machines. With this change, it will be possible to run many YaCy
instances even on VM hosts.
TimeoutRequests. The purpose is to test if YaCy runs better on VMs where
there is a limitation of concurrent processes; see
/proc/user_beancounters in row numproc; this value is limited and should
be low. Try to set timeoutrequests to keep this low. (works only after
restart)
be transcoded into jpg for image previews. To create such pdfs you must
do:
Add wkhtmltopdf and imagemagick to your OS, which you can do:
On a Mac download wkhtmltox-0.12.1_osx-cocoa-x86-64.pkg from
http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html and downloadh
ttp://cactuslab.com/imagemagick/assets/ImageMagick-6.8.9-9.pkg.zip
In Debian do "apt-get install wkhtmltopdf imagemagick"
Then check in /Settings_p.html?page=ProxyAccess: "Transparent Proxy" and
"Always Fresh" - this is used by wkhtmltopdf to fetch web pages using
the YaCy proxy. Using "Always Fresh" it is possible to get all pages
from the proxy cache.
Finally, you will see a new option when starting an expert web crawl.
You can set a maximum depth for crawling which should cause a pdf
generation. The resulting pdfs are then available in
DATA/HTCACHE/SNAPSHOTS/<host>.<port>/<depth>/<shard>/<urlhash>.<date>.pdf
concurrently. When a RWI search result is flushed into the result set,
id does Solr Queries (which replaced the old-style Metadata Queries) and
they are possibly running concurrently to a previously startet Solr
search. Both methods may block each other with IO. To enhance the speed,
they are now serialized. Because the Solr search results may result in
better results using the more advanced and configurable Ranking methods,
this result is preverred over the RWI search result. However, remote RWI
search results are still feeded concurrently into the search result as
well.
set to 'Always Fresh' the cache is always used if the entry in the cache
exist. This is a good way to archive web content and access it without
going online again in case the documents exist.
To do so, open /Settings_p.html?page=ProxyAccess and check the "Always
Fresh" checkbox.
This is set do false which behave as set before.
If you set this to true, then you have your web archive in DATA/HTCACHE.
Copy this to carry around your private copy of the internet!
