Any observations you'd care to share? I've had real trouble finding environments that exhibit problems people have in a way I can diagnose and, hopefully, solve them. Having a clean way to do performance analysis would be great. I've provided a battery of load-generators with 'puppet-test', but I've never been able to find many problems with it, which makes me think the problems are generally from services working in combination. -- To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable. -- Oscar Wilde --------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Kanies | http://reductivelabs.com | http://madstop.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
