  • How to maximize http.sys file upload performance

    - by anelson
    I'm building a tool that transfers very large streaming data sets (possibly on the order of terabytes in a single stream; routinely in the tens of gigabytes) from one server to another. The client portion of the tool will read blocks from the source disk, and send them over the network. The server side will read these blocks off the network and write them to a file on the server disk. Right now I'm trying to decide which transport to use. Options are raw TCP, and HTTP. I really, REALLY want to be able to use HTTP. The HttpListener (or WCF if I want to go that route) make it easy to plug in to the HTTP Server API (http.sys), and I can get things like authentication and SSL for free. The problem right now is performance. I wrote a simple test harness that sends 128K blocks of NULL bytes using the BeginWrite/EndWrite async I/O idiom, with async BeginRead/EndRead on the server side. I've modified this test harness so I can do this with either HTTP PUT operations via HttpWebRequest/HttpListener, or plain old socket writes using TcpClient/TcpListener. To rule out issues with network cards or network pathways, both the client and server are on one machine and communicate over localhost. On my 12-core Windows 2008 R2 test server, the TCP version of this test harness can push bytes at 450MB/s, with minimal CPU usage. On the same box, the HTTP version of the test harness runs between 130MB/s and 200MB/s depending upon how I tweak it. In both cases CPU usage is low, and the vast majority of what CPU usage there is is kernel time, so I'm pretty sure my usage of C# and the .NET runtime is not the bottleneck. The box has two 6-core Xeon X5650 processors, 24GB of single-ranked DDR3 RAM, and is used exclusively by me for my own performance testing. I already know about HTTP client tweaks like ServicePointManager.MaxServicePointIdleTime, ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit, ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue, and HttpWebRequest.AllowWriteStreamBuffering. Does anyone have any ideas for how I can get HTTP.sys performance beyond 200MB/s? Has anyone seen it perform this well on any environment?

  • Where/How do you configure phusion passenger when running nginx?

    - by Joey
    Im running Nginx and Phusion Passenger for my rails app and I want to be able to configure passenger. All I have seen is how to configure it while running apache which doesn't help me. For example, I want to change the following PassengerPoolIdleTime 0 RailsFrameworkSpawnerIdleTime 0 Where does this go? Putting it in my nginx config causes unknown directive errors.

  • Not sure about ACL permissions

    - by Darko Miletic
    I'm writing up something about ACL usage on CentOS but since I still do not have a box ready I would like to ask something. Let us assume we have a folder /var/www/test If I do this in terms of permissions: /bin/chown -R root:root /var/www/test/ /bin/chmod -R u=rwx,go= /var/www/test/ /usr/bin/setfacl -R -m u:apache:rwx /var/www/test/ Will user apache be able to change owner of folder test or of any particular file within that folder? If answer is yes shall I than use group instead of user?

  • Why does a PDF printed in iWork Pages 09 look crappy in Adobe Reader?

    - by Abhic
    Hello, I use Snow Leopard at home and work and recently realized that the documents I create in iWork Pages 09 don't look good in Adobe Reader. I go about creating a regular document and 'Print' - Save as PDF in Pages in OS X. The saved PDF file looks great in Preview in OS X but it looks pretty bad in Windows' Adobe Reader and even Adobe Acrobat in OS X. Is there something I could do to make it look better on both platforms? Thank you.

  • Rush Hour - Solving the game

    - by Rubys
    Rush Hour if you're not familiar with it, the game consists of a collection of cars of varying sizes, set either horizontally or vertically, on a NxM grid that has a single exit. Each car can move forward/backward in the directions it's set in, as long as another car is not blocking it. You can never change the direction of a car. There is one special car, usually it's the red one. It's set in the same row that the exit is in, and the objective of the game is to find a series of moves (a move - moving a car N steps back or forward) that will allow the red car to drive out of the maze. I've been trying to think how to solve this problem computationally, and I can really not think of any good solution. I came up with a few: Backtracking. This is pretty simple - Recursion and some more recursion until you find the answer. However, each car can be moved a few different ways, and in each game state a few cars can be moved, and the resulting game tree will be HUGE. Some sort of constraint algorithm that will take into account what needs to be moved, and work recursively somehow. This is a very rough idea, but it is an idea. Graphs? Model the game states as a graph and apply some sort of variation on a coloring algorithm, to resolve dependencies? Again, this is a very rough idea. A friend suggested genetic algorithms. This is sort of possible but not easily. I can't think of a good way to make an evaluation function, and without that we've got nothing. So the question is - How to create a program that takes a grid and the vehicle layout, and outputs a series of steps needed to get the red car out? Sub-issues: Finding some solution. Finding an optimal solution (minimal number of moves) Evaluating how good a current state is Example: How can you move the cars in this setting, so that the red car can "exit" the maze through the exit on the right?

  • Should I install software on a "SAN"

    - by am2605
    Hi, I need to set up ColdFusion 9 on a ubuntu server that has a SAN disk mounted. Is it appropriate to install the CF server software on this disk? I don't really understand the ins and outs of what a SAN is, so I am not sure if the intention is for me to solely install web content on it or whether the server software itself should go here too. Any advice would be extremeness welcome. Many thanks, Andrew.

  • PyOpenGL - passing transformation matrix into shader

    - by M-V
    I am having trouble passing projection and modelview matrices into the GLSL shader from my PyOpenGL code. My understanding is that OpenGL matrices are column major, but when I pass in projection and modelview matrices as shown, I don't see anything. I tried the transpose of the matrices, and it worked for the modelview matrix, but the projection matrix doesn't work either way. Here is the code: import OpenGL from OpenGL.GL import * from OpenGL.GL.shaders import * from OpenGL.GLU import * from OpenGL.GLUT import * from OpenGL.GLUT.freeglut import * from OpenGL.arrays import vbo import numpy, math, sys strVS = """ attribute vec3 aVert; uniform mat4 uMVMatrix; uniform mat4 uPMatrix; uniform vec4 uColor; varying vec4 vCol; void main() { // option #1 - fails gl_Position = uPMatrix * uMVMatrix * vec4(aVert, 1.0); // option #2 - works gl_Position = vec4(aVert, 1.0); // set color vCol = vec4(uColor.rgb, 1.0); } """ strFS = """ varying vec4 vCol; void main() { // use vertex color gl_FragColor = vCol; } """ # particle system class class Scene: # initialization def __init__(self): # create shader self.program = compileProgram(compileShader(strVS, GL_VERTEX_SHADER), compileShader(strFS, GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER)) glUseProgram(self.program) self.pMatrixUniform = glGetUniformLocation(self.program, 'uPMatrix') self.mvMatrixUniform = glGetUniformLocation(self.program, "uMVMatrix") self.colorU = glGetUniformLocation(self.program, "uColor") # attributes self.vertIndex = glGetAttribLocation(self.program, "aVert") # color self.col0 = [1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0] # define quad vertices s = 0.2 quadV = [ -s, s, 0.0, -s, -s, 0.0, s, s, 0.0, s, s, 0.0, -s, -s, 0.0, s, -s, 0.0 ] # vertices self.vertexBuffer = glGenBuffers(1) glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, self.vertexBuffer) vertexData = numpy.array(quadV, numpy.float32) glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 4*len(vertexData), vertexData, GL_STATIC_DRAW) # render def render(self, pMatrix, mvMatrix): # use shader glUseProgram(self.program) # set proj matrix glUniformMatrix4fv(self.pMatrixUniform, 1, GL_FALSE, pMatrix) # set modelview matrix glUniformMatrix4fv(self.mvMatrixUniform, 1, GL_FALSE, mvMatrix) # set color glUniform4fv(self.colorU, 1, self.col0) #enable arrays glEnableVertexAttribArray(self.vertIndex) # set buffers glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, self.vertexBuffer) glVertexAttribPointer(self.vertIndex, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, None) # draw glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 6) # disable arrays glDisableVertexAttribArray(self.vertIndex) class Renderer: def __init__(self): pass def reshape(self, width, height): self.width = width self.height = height self.aspect = width/float(height) glViewport(0, 0, self.width, self.height) glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST) glDisable(GL_CULL_FACE) glClearColor(0.8, 0.8, 0.8,1.0) glutPostRedisplay() def keyPressed(self, *args): sys.exit() def draw(self): glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT) # build projection matrix fov = math.radians(45.0) f = 1.0/math.tan(fov/2.0) zN, zF = (0.1, 100.0) a = self.aspect pMatrix = numpy.array([f/a, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, f, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, (zF+zN)/(zN-zF), -1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 2.0*zF*zN/(zN-zF), 0.0], numpy.float32) # modelview matrix mvMatrix = numpy.array([1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.5, 0.0, -5.0, 1.0], numpy.float32) # render self.scene.render(pMatrix, mvMatrix) # swap buffers glutSwapBuffers() def run(self): glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_RGBA) glutInitWindowSize(400, 400) self.window = glutCreateWindow("Minimal") glutReshapeFunc(self.reshape) glutDisplayFunc(self.draw) glutKeyboardFunc(self.keyPressed) # Checks for key strokes self.scene = Scene() glutMainLoop() glutInit(sys.argv) prog = Renderer() prog.run() When I use option #2 in the shader without either matrix, I get the following output: What am I doing wrong?

  • Fortigate 80C multi wan

    - by emamdouh
    I've Fortigate 80c and two internet lines from two separate ISPs. I'm trying to distribute sessions between both internet lines following http://docs-legacy.fortinet.com/cb/html/index.html#page/FOS_Cookbook/Install_advanced/routing_ecmp_basic.html , but it seems connections go through just one of two internet lines. I have "wan1 as it's configured first, and I could edit static route table to be wan2 instead of wan1", but not both of internet lines I have. Any ideas why this happens? Thanks in advance

  • Why is my mail stuck in the queue with the status "retry" in Exchange 2003?

    - by Mike C
    I have been having a problem recently where some of our mail is not getting to clients. I looked into the Message queue on my SBS2k3 server and noticed that several recipients are showing up in the queue with a state of "Retry". When I highlight the recipient, the additional queue information says "An SMTP protocol error occured". How can I find out more specifically what error occured, and how could I then go about correcting it? Thanks, Mike

  • Can't remember the website for downloading common tools after reinstall

    - by JB
    I remember a while back finding a website for downloading lots of common tools in one go after a system reinstall. It had a dark background and checkboxes for selecting the tools (browsers, editors, readers, im clients, etc.). After selecting the tools it downloaded a file which went away, downloaded everything you'd selected and then performed an install on each of the different apps. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?

  • URL to reboot a WebSTAR DPC2100R2 cable modem with curl?

    - by jtimberman
    Does anyone know what the magic URL is for rebooting a WebSTAR DPC2100R2 with curl? I used to have a SurfBoard, and the curl command: curl http://192.168.100.1/reset.htm?reset_modem=Restart%20Cable%20Modem Would reset the modem. Sure, I can go power cycle it manually, but it's in the basement and I'm lazy :-). I did find out the URL to elevate the access permission, but nothing about rebooting/resetting yet.

  • fcgi_mod and phpmyadmin

    - by Cudos
    I have setup Debian Lenny, Apache2, PHP 5.3.1 fcgi_mod, and MySQL and it works fine. But PHPMyadmin doesn't work. When I go to : http://phpmyadmin.domain.com it downloads the index.php under PHPMyadmin instead of executing it. I think I need to wrap the request in a fcgiwrapper like I did all the virtual hosts. But how do I do that? Apparently there are not that many tutorials on this.

  • How to route certain applications through a VPN and others to use my 'standard' connection in OSX 10.6?

    - by Alfie
    I am currently working abroad and use my company's VPN for FTP and some browsing. This is a relatively slow connection and while it is suitable for those VPN necessities; much of my other internet usage can be done without the VPN at a much higher speed. Is there a way to tell Safari and my FTP software to use the VPN and for all other connections to go directly to the internet. I am currently using OSX's Network Prefs for running my VPN connection.

  • RDC and black screen mystery

    - by Vidar
    The following are all Windows 7 64 bit Business edition computers. I have a PC (lets call it "PC1") that I remotely access now and again using Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) on my laptop downstairs. Sometimes when I physically go back to sit at PC1, the screen is black and there is no way for me to wake it into life, no login screen or anything - the PC is still on and I am always forced to do a hard reboot. What can I do to stop this happening, it's really annoying.

  • Is it normal for a programmer with 2 years experience to take a long time to code simple programs?

    - by ajax81
    Hi all, I'm a relatively new programmer (18 months on the scene), and I'm finally getting to the point where I'm comfortable accepting projects and developing solutions under minimal supervision. Unfortunately, this also means that I've become acutely aware of my performance shortfalls, the most prevalent of which is the amount of time it takes me to develop, test, and submit algorithms for review. A great example of what I'm talking about occurred this week when I was tasked with developing a simple XML web service (asp.net 3.5) callable via client-side JavaScript, that accepts a single parameter and returns a dataset output to a modal window (please note this is the first time I've had to develop a web service and have had ZERO experience creating/consuming them...let alone calling them from JS client side). Keeping a long story short -- I worked on it for 4 days straight, all day each day, for a grand total of 36 hours, not including the time I spent dwelling on the problem in the shower, the morning commute, and laying awake in bed at night. I learned a great deal about web services and xml/json/javascript...but was called in for a management review to discuss the length of time it took me to develop the solution. In the meeting, I was praised for the quality of my work and was in fact told that my effort was commendable. However, they (senior leads and pm's) weren't impressed with the amount of time it took me to develop the solution and expressed that they would have liked to see the solution in roughly 1/3 of the time it took me. I guess what concerns me the most is that I've identified this pattern as common for myself. Between online videos, book research, and trial/error coding...if its something I haven't seen before, I can spend up to two weeks on a problem that seems to only take the pros in the videos moments to code up. And of course, knowing that management isn't happy with this pattern has shaken me up a bit. To sum up, I have some very specific questions I'd like to ask, and would greatly appreciate your objective professional feedback. Is my experience as a junior programmer common among new developers? Or is it possible that I'm just not cut out for the work? If you suspect that my experience is not common and that there may be an aptitude issue, do you have any suggestions/solutions that I could propose to management to help bring me up to speed? Do seasoned, professional programmers ever encounter knowledge barriers that considerably delay deliverables? When you started out in the industry, did you know how to "do it all"? If not, how long did it take you to be perceived as "proficient"? Was it a natural progression of trial and error, or was there a particular zen moment when you knew you had achieved super saiyen power level? Anyways, thanks for taking the time to read my question(s). I don't know if this is the right place to ask for professional career guidance, but I greatly appreciate your willingness to help me out. Cheers, Daniel

  • Volunteer for a potential employer?

    - by EoRaptor013
    I've been looking for work since March, and haven't had much luck. Recently, however, I interviewed with a small company near my home for a C#, .NET, SQL development position. I hit it off very well with the hiring manager during the phone screen, and even more so during the face to face. Unfortunately, I failed the practical test: wiring up a web form, creating a couple of SQL stored procedures, saving new data with validation, and creating a minimal search screen. I knew what I was doing, but I was too slow to meet their standards as all the work needed to be done within an hour. Nevertheless, I really liked the place, the environment, the people who I would have been working with, and the boss. (I gave the company an 11 on Joel's 12 point scale.) So, the obvious next step was to scrape the rust off. I've been trying to create little projects for myself, but I don't know that I've been effective in getting any faster. What with all that goes into creating a project, I'm not heads-down coding as much as I think I need. Now, with all that introduction, here's the question. I have been thinking about calling the hiring manager at that place, and asking him to let me volunteer for three or four weeks, with no strings attached. I think it would benefit me, and wouldn't cost him anything (as long as I didn't slow the existing people down!). At the end of that period, he might, or might not, be inclined to hire me, but even if not, I would have had as much as 160 hours of in the trenches development. Maybe not all shiny, but no more rust, I would think. Does this plan make any sense at all? I certainly don't want to sound desperate (although, I'm not far from being there), and I very much need the tuneup, lube, and change the oil. What's the downside, if any, to me doing this? Do any of you see red flags going up—either from the prerspective of the hiring manager, or from the perspective of a developer?
