Re: [Exist-development] [ANN] Start of CODE FREEZE

[Adam R. <ad...@ex...>]

After checking the metrics of the EC2 instance this morning, it seems
that svn2git is pretty much CPU bound on here, consistently consuming
75% - 100% of the CPU. I was using a m1.small instance to keep costs
low.

I could switch to a larger instance, but that would involve having to
restart the process from scratch, svn2git does not have any reliable
way to resume. Also for each doubling of the CPU, the costs double,
and there is no guarantee that it will be twice as fast. I am not sure
but I guess svn2git is single-threaded, so we could only step up to a
m1.medium and expect to see any sort of performance improvement.

As this has now been running for six days, I am more inclined to leave
it running than switch to an m1.medium instance which is twice the
size (as we know this will take at 3+ days to repeat what has already
been done on the m1.small instance).
We can re-evaluate this in a few days perhaps...
