| Techrights-sec | the TM dumps are getting interupted somehow, I'll look into it | Jan 05 09:00 |
| Techrights-sec | One owrked as it should | Jan 05 09:00 |
| Techrights-sec | The others id not | Jan 05 09:00 |
| Techrights-sec | ^are | Jan 05 09:00 |
| Techrights-sec | It may have been the ssh_host_key (public half) for TM missing from | Jan 05 09:00 |
| Techrights-sec | known_hosts on TR. Running manually again, but we'll see for sure tomorrow. | Jan 05 09:00 |
| schestowitz | some traffic swarms on TM today, coming and going | Jan 05 09:32 |
| Techrights-sec | maybe groups of the curious visiting TM? | Jan 05 10:13 |
| schestowitz | does not look like legit traffic | Jan 05 10:13 |
| Techrights-sec | :( | Jan 05 10:18 |
| Techrights-sec | They are testing again then | Jan 05 10:18 |
| schestowitz | to be fair, we cope a lot better on or with the new server, but when you get 10k reqs in 30 seconds it'll pause, not serve for a while, then get back to it | Jan 05 10:18 |
| Techrights-sec | The current hardware is extremely generous. We are very much indebted for it. | Jan 05 10:19 |
| schestowitz | It's much of the same as London Town Hall (I know because we support it, and it runs Drupal) | Jan 05 10:20 |
| schestowitz | BTW, I can only upload about 10mb/hour, at most 20. Any trick for pushing that up. It got a lot worse on Monday and we move back to lockdown tonight (full), so maybe the throttling is related to congestion, not my ipfs node | Jan 05 10:21 |
| schestowitz | It pains me to make a video I can only publish (with text) half as day later | Jan 05 10:21 |
| Techrights-sec | Not really, yet. Is the bottleneck your home ISP? | Jan 05 10:23 |
| Techrights-sec | They usually limit uploads to a tiny fraction of the advertised bandwidth. | Jan 05 10:23 |
| Techrights-sec | Fewer moving parts, fewer color photos, and smoother textures help, but | Jan 05 10:23 |
| Techrights-sec | only a little. | Jan 05 10:23 |
| Techrights-sec | There is some talk about parallel sftp somewhere but I'm not sure about whether that will ever get to the main project. | Jan 05 10:23 |
| schestowitz | Traffic shaping would probably bottleneck the whole household. Rianne noticed slowdowns on her laptop also. | Jan 05 10:24 |
| Techrights-sec | Maybe hit it with split and run a separate SFTP client for each file? | Jan 05 10:25 |
| Techrights-sec | Then reassamble on the TR server? | Jan 05 10:25 |
| schestowitz | Yesterday I tried uploading 2 different webm files in parallel and IIRC it did not help. I can try again, one video is about zdnet, another about qt | Jan 05 10:25 |
| schestowitz | It only imperials publications further because both arrive later instead of one at a time | Jan 05 10:26 |
| Techrights-sec | https://parallel-ssh.org/ | Jan 05 10:27 |
| Techrights-sec | untested | Jan 05 10:27 |
| Techrights-sec | Oh. If the parallel files did not improve speed, then other parallel tricks | Jan 05 10:27 |
| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-parallel-ssh.org | ParallelSSH | Jan 05 10:27 | |
| Techrights-sec | probably won't help. | Jan 05 10:27 |
| Techrights-sec | Again, I suspect your home ISP throttles bandwidth for uploads. | Jan 05 10:27 |
| Techrights-sec | Part of the war on general purpose computing and self-sufficiency. | Jan 05 10:27 |
| schestowitz | I mentioned this in #techrights yesterday and kaniini, who does/did ISP stuff, said it's definitely sounding like a case of throttling | Jan 05 10:28 |
| Techrights-sec | What can you negotiate with the home ISP? It might be in the contract somewhere | Jan 05 10:31 |
| Techrights-sec | that you can have more or it might say that you get nothing there in th efineprint | Jan 05 10:31 |
| schestowitz | It has only been this bad for maybe 30 hours, so I hope it'll solve itself. Maybe some exchange died somewhere, slowing down upload speeds until they repair it. Many things are possible and I really hate phoning some truly useless and powerless call centre that just follows manuals and won't lift a finger. | Jan 05 10:32 |
| schestowitz | the whole tenability of making video is at stake though. There's no workaround, no pigeons for me to send with CD-ROM containing videos across the pong. | Jan 05 10:35 |

| Techrights-sec | In the short term it would be just to plam that it takes a VERY long time to | Jan 05 10:37 |
| Techrights-sec | upload the video and take that into account. | Jan 05 10:37 |

| Techrights-sec | That's too slow. Better ask the ISP about the home connection. | Jan 05 10:43 |
