Re: Strategies for testing against Riak

Hey Sean, Thanks for the suggestion. I've spent a few hours trying to get this up and running and I'm having a bit of a hard time. Is there any documentation around Riak::TestServer? What are the configuration values for :source and :root supposed to be exactly? As I understand it, :root shoul

Re: LevelDB backend. Turning Compression Off.

Yes. Add {compression, false} to the eleveldb section of your app.config. However, generally we advise using compression because it can increase throughput and decrease latency when accessing highly-compressible values (think JSON, XML, anything with repeated characters or substrings). The CPU cost

Hi all, Is it possible to turn LevelDB compression off? Thanks! Vladimir ___ riak-users mailing list riak-users@lists.basho.com http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com

Hi All, The Community Code page on the wiki [1] is out-of-date. This is my fault; you've been writing too much code. :) Tom and I are going to spend some time this coming week trying to bring it up to speed with what's current, but if you've got some code or are using something that should be lis

Re: Riak behind a Load Balancer

I wonder what happens if one would run a Riak cluster on 5/10/15+ EC2 micro (or small) Linux machines behind Elastic Load Balance? Do you think it would perform well enough for a web site with moderate traffic. Idea is having many many "small" machines rather than couple of "big" machines. An

Sean, how do you explain these rather huge improvements Amazon presents in their Dynamo paper? On 08.09.2012, at 18:02, Sean Cribbs wrote: > Sebastian, > > There are plans to have client-driven request routing (that is, at > least sending the request to a member of the preflist) in the futur

Re: Riak behind a Load Balancer

Sebastian, There are plans to have client-driven request routing (that is, at least sending the request to a member of the preflist) in the future, but that is currently vaporware. An interim solution we have discussed was to send the client a "hint" as to where to send a request for that key on t

Re: Riak behind a Load Balancer

AFAIK Riak does not expose these data via API in order to implement a "client-driven coordination", right? This sounds quite interesting and would be a nice way to reduce latencies when talking to Riak. Best Sebastian On 31.08.2012, at 10:55, Dave Brady wrote: > There's a reference to an a

timeout error for size>40k & changing q_limit has no affect

Hi All, I am getting the following error code from Riak when I execute my map reduce.. {"phase":0,"error":"[timeout]","input":"{<<\"20120708\">>,<<\"JM\">>}","type":"forward_preflist","stack":"[]"} This was happening from the past two days when my [bucket,key] count went huge upto 40k..
