[Condor-users] Question about Quill

["Michael O'Donnell" <odonnellm@xxxxxxxx>]

I am running Quill++ and I am using
the setting QUILL_MAINTAIN_DB_CONN = False. My problem is that the Postgres
server (not the same as my CM), which has 4 CPUs, runs at 95% CPU load.
If I try changing QUILL_POLLING_PERIOD this to 120 sec, it does not seem
to make a difference. The other thing I notice is that on the postgres
server, the connections do not seem to close and I would think I would
be able to see this using such a large polling period.

I have approximately 115 cores (50 machines),
so this is not a huge pool. All machines are Windows including the servers.
Postgres has approximately 50 connections open at all times each utilizing
0-5% CPU usage and 4MB memory.

Is there something in the in the condor
logs to determine whether the connections are actually being closed.

Also, Does each machine create a connection
or is it each core?

Does anyone have recommendations on
scalability with regard to the number of machines/cores and the number
of CPUs required for using Quill?

Thank your for the help,
Mike
