Public bug reported: I'm experiencing some occasional high latency that's causing some irc clients to timeout. xchat is showing 5-10 second lag. Server isn't swapping, iostat shows <10 %util, await has occasional single spikes to 20, low cpu usage, network utilization also low. all clients are on 100mbit or better LAN connections.
I'm not really sure how to diagnose this, best I can tell it's either because a client connecting or disconnecting and ngircd is blocking on something. I also notice the packaged version for 10.04LTS is 3 years old, and even 11.10's is 2 years old and I have to wonder if some of the "code cleanup" and "better error handling" notes in the change logs over the past 2 years would reduce this latency I'm seeing. Is there a reason for the old version? ** Affects: ngircd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879470 Title: unexplained high latency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ngircd/+bug/879470/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
