Configuration Caching missing for Bugzilla 2.2.0 [message #40174] Mon, 31 December 2007 22:40 Go to next message

I have a quick question, to verify a problem before I file a bug report,
about the Bugzilla Connector.

The New & Noteworthy shows a screen shot of a option labeled "Cached
Configuration" that I cannot seem to find on the version that I
installed today (2.2.0.I20071220-1700). This was an upgrade from 2.1,
and to verify I did a clean install onto a bare platform runtime, and
saw the same missing option. This this indeed missing or am I doing
something wrong?

Thank you for your time.

Noticed the same thing today.

It was put in place to resolve a load/performance problem on
bugs.eclipse.org. It works by sending a HEAD request before doing a
config update to check whether there have been mods and works only on
bugs.eclipse.org as it requires mods to bugzilla itself.

It was dropped from the development stream on 5 october 2007 when the
gzip patches were put in. See the source history on
BugzillaRepositorySettingsPage.java#createAdditionalControls
version 1.70

bugs.eclipse.org resolved the issue by generating the config once a day
and propagating that to the download mirrors around the world.

When you request confiig.cgi from bugs.eclipse.org, you actually get a
file from some other server near you.

Vote for bug 205416 when you want gzip encoding on bugs.eclipse.org

If you want to increase performance on another bugzilla, look at:
196056: [performance] reduce frequency of repository configuration download
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=196056

205416: In order to reduce traffic, the bugzilla should not only cache
its config but also gzip it
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=205416

205708: Make Mylyn accept gzip encoded data on all requests
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=205708

These require mods to bugzilla itself as well for the config, but the
rest can be implemented by adding mod_gzip/mod_deflate to Apache

You should file a bug report, as it is an error in the new and noteworthy!

This is now automatic if caching is available, so the user does not need
