the database (Berkeley DB is used) backend for the majordomo2 lists isn't the most stable, so we've been having periodic corruption problems where we have to rebuild it ... the problem is that the rebuild process doesn't seem to be aware of unsubscribe/set commands that were issued *after* the initial subscribe, so everyone gets back on ;( If you are mis-configured, or on the list when you shouldn't be, please re-unsubscribe and/or issue the set command, to get yourself back to the format you were in ...

Does anyone else see the irony here?
How about using, oh say, PostgreSQL for the database? :-)

Did you have a look at what I committed to Mj::SimpleDB::SQL ? I still have a few things to work out, and if you don't use sublists, you can dive in, it works :) -- Mathieu Arnold

(which is not always "the right way to do it" of course.) This does not count the Xowners GLOBAL sublists which is not tested because it should always exist :) As I say, it works, but I would not want to be the end of postgresql.org mailing lists in case there is a but somewhere :) -- Mathieu Arnold

Robert, I am currently evaluating PolyServe Matrix Server which is a clustering solution including a clustered file system (mounted read-write everywhere). Anything special anyone wants to know? I'm using PostgreSQL 7.4.2 in a Linux cluster.

We'd be very interested in the performance, especially with the disk being used as in interconnect (I assume that that is being used to simulate global shared memory?) We did have a talk with the folks over at http://www.linuxlabs.com/clustgres They were honest enough to say that even with the Dolphon interconnects, that writing would be slower than usual. We havenot made a complete decision on that yet, but are still looking at alternatives. It seems that Clustres might be a good solution. They use a SAN, the Dolphin interconnects, and multiple diskless nodes.In theory I am sure it works, but this is one of the chicken/egg problems where we want to see it in general use firstbefore committing :-) - Ericson Greg Spiegelberg wrote: > 2 dual PIII-1.4GHz Linux RedHat 3.0 servers each with onboard AIC7xxx > and 2 U160 drives (mirrored), 2 GB of ECC memory, 2 onboard Intel Ether > Pro 100Mbps type NIC's, 1 Qlogic 2310 HBA on a 1GBs SAN using a Candera > 510 storage cluster with Xyratex SATA on the backend configured with 1+0 > LUN's.

Some basics on how easy it is to install/configure and some before/after type benchmarks showing how it affected performance. Perferrably you could measure simple vs. complex queries as well as update vs. insert performance. If you're really ambitious you could try running one of the tpc style benchmarks on the system, check the archives or the osdl site for more info on getting these up and running.

Here's the basics basically because I ran out of time and budget to actually purchase it but here's what I know. 1 day to install. Installed RedHat ES 3.0 from scratch, and the PolyServe process took perhaps 1.5 hours to install including a kernel build and system reboot. Roughly 2 hours into PolyServe I had my first psfs (shared cluster) partition setup on my 1Gb SAN. Just doing a basic dd to write 1.5GB and 5GB to an ext3 on the same hardware produced roughly 115 MB/s and 107 MB/s respectively. It's my understand that PostgreSQL won't create files largers than 2GB though. Doing the same tests on the PolyServe file system (psfs) accomplished the tasks in 117 MB/s and 109 MB/s, just slightly faster. If you're familiar with Veritas Cluster Server it operates similiar to it though I didn't have a chance to fully test it. Given the budget I'd definitely take another look at it.
