Package: dgit-infrastructure Version: 10.3 Recently I have seen dgit push being slow on a number of occasions. Output included things like this:
remote: gpgv: Good signature from "Ian Jackson (new general purpose key) <ijack...@chiark.greenend.org.uk>" remote: gpgv: aka "Ian Jackson <i...@torproject.org>" remote: [policy database busy, retrying (1s)] remote: [policy database busy, retrying (1s)] remote: To /srv/dgit.debian.org/dispatch-dir/distro=debian/repos/hippotat.git remote: 298f721..4315a18 4315a18bd0414f2edfbe302f187edac16c1c39cd -> refs/dgit/rc-buggy The "retrying" messages seem to come at intervals of much more than 1s. I investigated with ps on the dgit-repos server. It seems that the cron job was running. I think what is happening is that the debian policy hook script is obtaining a sqlite3 lock on the (single) policy db file at the start, and then works to make ftpmaster API calls. (And maybe do other stuff.) It would be best to do this with the lock released. (Care should be taken to retain appropriate transactional/temporal integrity.)

Pronouns: they/he. If I emailed you from @fyvzl.net or @evade.org.uk, that is a private address which bypasses my fierce spamfilter.
