If gwtoolset is overloading your server and you need it to stop right away
(e.g. its an emergency) contact someone in #wikimedia-operations and
explain the situation.

Dear all,
Since Tuesday I’ve started the upload of around 8000 pictures of amoeba,
everything
was going smoothly until yesterday afternoon.
It seems that at a moment we have saturated our own server with too many
parallel
request and the GWToolset start facing "HTTP request timed out » ,
as you can see in the GWToolset log
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=gwtool… it
the same story since yesterday around 5PM.
I’ve asked our CIO, and he told me that indeed GWToolset is using the
whole
bandwidth of our server :-(
Now I don’t know what to do? is there a moment GWToolset will stop doing
request to
the WMCH server? should we restart our server?
incidentally , the account used for setting the batch upload receive now
several «
Error: 1205 Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting
transaction (10.0.6.41) «
Do you think it’s related, I saw that someone already mentionned this
error while
using GWToolset.
Thanks to all for your help.
Cheers
Charles
