Commenting out the fast path (these three lines) seems to be working so far (although extremely slowly).
My instance would previously get killed at around 15% (there were a lot of posts from two forum softwares ago when pasting files into a forum wasn't a thing), but now it's at 90%. It's been about 4 hours since I started this attempt.
Is anyone who is affected by this using the dbsearch plugin with a MongoDB database? I got rid of ours and the periodic hangs went away, at least for the last 24 hours.
@baris said in NodeBB periodically hangs:
Do you guys get this hanging issue daily?
We've been tracking the manual restarts here: https://what.thedailywtf.com/topic/19990/the-official-server-cooties-tracking-thread
Ok, time for an update. The iframely problem was definitely one of the causes, but we're still getting occasional lock-ups. Nowhere near as bad as before, but the site still goes down a few times a day. We have a topic where we track manual restarts, but the data doesn't really show any pattern other than that the infinite loop is happening during times when a lot of pages are loaded.
Okay, strace showed both instances hanging after this:
connect(85, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons("[iframely port]"), sin_addr=inet_addr("[iframely IP]")}, 16) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress)
I've blacklisted the forum's hostname from iframely. We'll see if that fixes it.
