Why is CVS server so slow?

From
Simon Riggs
Date:
The last few days the CVS server seems to be much slower than it used to
be. No network changes here. Anything changed server side, or should I
ask elsewhere?

I'm logged on daily interactively, and haven't noticed any issues ... 
Bruce has, in the past, noticed an issue that if he wipes out and 
re-checks out the source, it seems to clear up ...

Are you both referring to the same server?  I've noticed that
anoncvs.postgresql.org (66.98.251.159) has been slow for a couple
of days -- it just took over five minutes to do a cvs update of
HEAD where it usually takes thirty seconds or less.

Yeah, I was about to say the same.  The master CVS server has been OK
(not great, but OK) for the last week or so; but I believe the folks
complaining are using anoncvs.

Anyone noticing any network issues?  I just looked over the server itself, 
swapping a *little* bit, but vmstat shows the disks aren't busy ... and 
nothing unusual taking up CPU on the server itself ...

Err, have you read your emails from Magnus yet today? They might explain
a thing or two.

anoncvs is on svr4, right? It's been dead slow due to spam getting
trapped in a loop because of configuration errors (see other mails with
details on what we need to do to fix that).
