I think we are hitting the load limits on our server.

Stream is loading slow and sometimes nginx gives a page not found message. How do we handle this?

@manukrishnantv can we move smc of fci sites to your vms?
@nandajavarma can we move diaspora yatra to autistici.org?

I have mentioned with few of the SMC community members that my company is willing to sponsor a VM, if required. As things were going without much issues, it seems like the proposal was not discussed. I'll bring this up in the SMC mailing list.

Have sent a mail to the SMC Mailing list, with my offer. Lets see how it goes.

@praveenarimbrathod Yes. I remember applying for it a while back. But could not follow up. Will do that now.

@manukrishnantv let me know when you want to do the migration. I will join you.

@nandajavarma any update on it? Actually we just need a wordpress blog, so you can sign up at noblogs.org (run by autistici) and ask autistici people to provide a dns entry.

Migration of all SMC sites are now complete. What is left is fosscommunity.in and diaspora yatra. Hope to get those sorted out this week itself. Then we could remove all php related stuffs and use the server entirely for poddery.

Services last restarted at around 4PM IST (~24 hours ago) Had to restart redis-server, which was running from the time server started. Noticed more than 1/4th of the sidekiq requests fails.

I have reduced number of sidekiq jobs to 20x2 from 25x2 (2 workers), hoping it eases resources.
@manukrishnantv any update on adding more resources?

@manukrishnantv I think memory usage is fine as long as it is not using swap. linux considers free ram as wasted resource so it will use free ram as cache (cache frequently read files etc) . So this is quite normal.
http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ has a nice explanation.
