Geoff-
I found an article in desperate need of Wikification
(& yes, it's an
article I have no sympathy for, but I'm finding it easy to resist the urge
to add the POV declaration "this topic is bullshit"), when I noticed I am
no longer able to type in a word & ask for a search.
What's up?
When Pliny came back up the server was extremely slow. I checked the SQL
processlist and noticed lots of hanging search threads. I have no idea
what's wrong, but for the time being I've taken the title search out.
"Go"
should still work as expected (when there's no match it performs a title
search). If the server runs fine for the next few hours I'll put the
search back in and see what happens.
I've also disabled sysop queries after some **** ran a query repeatedly
which would bog the whole db server down. I think they should stay
disabled until someone hacks a timeout into the function, and it will be
hard to convince me otherwise.
Regards,
Erik
