IRC [16:39] *** holycow joined the chat.
IRC [18:24] <Dossy> frankie--what's the state of the aolserver debian package? Should I be using the aolserver4 package (4.0.10) -- is there a 4.5.x package?
IRC [18:26] *** dekoy parted the chat.
IRC [18:45] <partymola> yay! our site is being attacked >_>
IRC [18:45] <partymola> 40-50 petitions each second
IRC [18:45] <partymola> and the slow-fatty Apache is not able to reply them on time, so it has grown to exhaust all resources lol

IRC [19:45] *** holycow parted the chat.
IRC [19:48] <Dossy> Apache? :P
IRC [19:49] <Dossy> 40-50 requests/second isn't unreasonably high ... :-P
IRC [19:54] <partymola> it is, it is, since there is not enough output bandwidth
IRC [19:54] <partymola> and it can serve requests on time
IRC [19:54] <partymola> so there are more and more apache processes as time passes lol
IRC [19:55] <Dossy> frankie: interesting, aolserver4, aolserver4-dev, aolserver4-doc ... none of these include sample-config.tcl?
IRC [19:55] <partymola> Dossy: we use apache as frontend using virtualhosts and proxies that redirect to aolserver
IRC [19:55] <partymola> any suggestion?
IRC [19:55] <partymola> (not using apache is a valid option lol)
IRC [19:55] <Dossy> ah, /usr/share/doc/aolserver4/examples/sample-config.tcl.gz ...
IRC [19:56] <Dossy> yeah, if you're just using apache as a reverse proxy, use Pound or Squid
IRC [19:57] <partymola> who's the most lightweight one?
IRC [19:57] <partymola> which*
IRC [19:57] <partymola> the problem with apache is that it's s.l.o.w.
IRC [19:58] <partymola> :m ... well... apache is serving a subversion repository too...
IRC [19:58] <partymola> idk what i can do with that :m
IRC [19:59] <partymola> ok, got the solution xD
IRC [19:59] <partymola> apache only for https lol
IRC [19:59] <partymola> (i don't think ppl will send DDoS attacks against a SSL server... it'll overload their machines too...)
IRC [20:28] <Dossy> yay! my AOLserver 4.0.10 VMware appliance is almost working.
IRC [20:39] <partymola> LOL
