Redmine 1.1.1 on Debian Squeeze64bit - unusable

Added by Stefan Lindecke over 13 years ago

Hello !

Big problems. I´ve installed redmine on a debian system, man years ago, working via passenger. Very nice, round about 250 projects. High usage.
So, the new Debian Release came, i´ve upgraded my server, and the problems begin.

Memory Usage of the ruby processes up to 2 GB (each one, 4 parallel)

CPU Highload (100%)

The only way at the moment is, to kill the ruby tasks.
Than, my redmine is usable for round about 1 hour.
quickly, no problems...

Could there be a problem, with connected SVN Repositories ?
How could i find out, what is wroing ?

production.log would not give any hints.

Finally i found out, what has happend.

A chinese crawler named sosospider+ requested an enormous amount of pages. Existing and NonExisting Pages.

Including an enormous http requests with false headers.

Adding the IPs of that Spider into my iptables and after a few seconds everything works fine.

That was very hard, to find out.
