Re: building on FreeBSD?

I actually have a couple pull requests open to add support for all the BSDs for riak. You're welcome to contribute to the effort. https://github.com/basho/erlang_js/pull/11 https://github.com/basho/skerl/pull/5 Piotr actually has a better fix for skerl on OpenBSD here https://github.com/basho/s

Re: building on FreeBSD?

Also yes, I did see this: http://blog.harperdog.com/2010/12/17/riak-on-freebsd/ Seems like the right way to fix this is not to make a port with a bunch of patches but to make the build more portable... Dave On Wed, Apr 13, 2011 at 5:20 PM, David Leimbach wrote: > I realize this might not be s

building on FreeBSD?

I realize this might not be supported at this point, however I am trying to build on FreeBSD and I think I'm running into cases where Makefiles are referring to GNUmake as "make" instead of "$(MAKE)". Shall I file a bug? Dave ___ riak-users mailing list

Re: Large ring_creation_size

Ok, how about in this case I described? It runs out of memory with a single pair of nodes... (Or did you mean there's a connection between each pair of vnodes?) On Wednesday, April 13, 2011 at 1:56 PM, Jon Meredith wrote: Hi Greg et al, > > As you say largest known is not largest possible. Inter

Re: Large ring_creation_size

Hi Greg et al, As you say largest known is not largest possible. Internally within Basho, the largest cluster we've experimented with so far had 50 nodes. Going beyond that it's speculation from me about pain points. 1) It is true that you need enough file descriptors to start up all partitions

Re: Large ring_creation_size

My understanding is that it's not riak which ultimately limits the size of the cluster but erlang distribution protocol. By default erlang nodes are fully connected, so if you have 1000 nodes you have about 999 outgoing connections from each node, and with the net tick, they start to receive a lot

Re: Large ring_creation_size

The largest known riak cluster != the largest possible riak cluster. ;-) The inter node communication of the cluster depends on the data set and usage pattern, doesn't it? Or is there some constant overhead that tops out at a few hundred nodes? I should point out that we'll have big data, but no

Re: Large ring_creation_size

Ill just chime in and say that this is not practical for a few reasons. The largest known riak cluster has like 50 or 60 nodes. Afaik, inter node communication of erlang clusters top out at a few hundred nodes. I'm also under the impression that each physical node has to have enough file descrip

Re: RiakSearch question

Hi Muhammad, If you have './bin/riak', it means you have downloaded Riak KV, not Riak Search. Riak Search would have the './bin/riaksearch' executable. You can download Riak Search (including src code) from here: http://downloads.basho.com/riak-search/CURRENT/

Large ring_creation_size

Hello, I am experimenting with different ring sizes for a Riak cluster that will initially be 3-5 nodes but will grow to a large number of nodes, like 1000 or more. I'm also using the multiple disks per node setup discussed in other thread on this list. Because of that, we'll need to have at l

I'd recommend that you download a pre-built binary or a code tarball from http://downloads.basho.com/riak-search/CURRENT/ rather than pulling code from github directly. The code on github is the latest development version of our software, and so it may have bugs or build problem that we haven't fo

"Failed to compact" in RiakSearch

Hi all, I'm benchmarking RiakSearch, (through a Node.js / riak-js front-end), and we're getting occasional timeouts: Error: ETIMEDOUT, Connection timed out at Socket._onConnect (net.js:599:18) at IOWatcher.onWritable [as callback] (net.js:186:12) The RiakSearch log says: =ERROR REPORT 13-Ap

Re: [newbie] riak performance - basics

MH, Riak may not seem as fast in a single node configuration compared to things like mongodb or others, but keep in mind the strengths of Riak are its performance at scale and the ease with which it does scale. Nobody runs a single node configuration in an actual production environment so keep tha

SV: [newbie] riak performance - basics

Hi M H, The default Riak configuration has N=3 [1], which means that it is configured to run on a 3-node environment. This also means that every PUT you do must write 3 values to your local machine! Changing n_val for your Riak bucket to 1 will make more sense for a 1-node environment. [1] htt

Jens, That's great to hear! Also, if you still want to use HTTP, setting the "disable_http_nagle" option to true in app.config should improve request latency. See http://wiki.basho.com/Configuration-Files.html#disable_http_nagle Sean Cribbs Developer Advocate Basho Technologies, Inc. http://

Sean, The problem seems to have been HTTP overhead, even though I was running 11 processes. Using procotol buffers yielded a much better (and realistic) performance around ~2900 inserts/second. Please see my previous response in this same thread for more info. Thank you, Jens Från: Sean Cribb

riakpool in production

Dave, First off, I want to say that I think it's awesome that you've started a riakc pool implementation and shared it with everyone! It's certainly a missing piece and we could all benefit from having a canonical implementation. That said, I have a few comments: 1) Growth of the pool: Since th
