Package: smokeping Version: 2.7.3-4.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I changed the configuration to add an FPing probe flavor with pings=2000 (and step=2100) specified, and a few targets using that probe. The motication for this is that my ISP considers the number of packets lost within a 2000-ping sample to be a canonical metric for reliability. So I would like to collect statistics using this metric in order to have have data for any complaints in the future. The backend smokeping process seems to work just fine. The data is being collected, and the 3 and 30 hour graphs are rendered in reasonable time (~2s). However when I go to the 10 day (or longer) graph URL for such target, the CGI script hogs CPU and eats all available RAM (8GB) until it is terminated by the OOM-killer after four minutes or so, resulting in a 503 or 504 response from Apache. The longest period I was able to graph successfully was about 4 days. Note that the above is with about 18 hours worth of data. The RRD files for targets with default configuration are about 2.9MB, and the ones for 2000 pings are 248MB. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-10-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages smokeping depends on: ii adduser 3.134 ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-transport-agent] 4.96-15+deb12u1 ii fping 5.1-1 ii init-system-helpers 1.65.2 ii libcgi-fast-perl 1:2.15-1 ii libconfig-grammar-perl 1.13-5 ii libdigest-hmac-perl 1.04+dfsg-2 ii libjs-cropper 1.2.2-1.1 ii libjs-prototype 1.7.3-1 ii libjs-scriptaculous 1.9.0-3 ii librrds-perl 1.7.2-4+b8 ii libsnmp-session-perl 1.14~git20221124T101957-1 ii liburi-perl 5.17-1 ii libwww-perl 6.68-1 ii lsb-base 11.6 ii perl 5.36.0-7 ii sysvinit-utils [lsb-base] 3.06-4 ii ucf 3.0043+nmu1 Versions of packages smokeping recommends: ii apache2 [httpd-cgi] 2.4.57-2 ii bind9-dnsutils [dnsutils] 1:9.18.16-1~deb12u1 ii dnsutils 1:9.18.16-1~deb12u1 pn echoping <none> ii libsocket6-perl 0.29-3 Versions of packages smokeping suggests: ii curl 7.88.1-10+deb12u1 pn libauthen-radius-perl <none> ii libio-socket-ssl-perl 2.081-2 ii libnet-dns-perl 1.36-1 pn libnet-ldap-perl <none> pn libnet-telnet-perl <none> ii openssh-client 1:9.2p1-2 -- Configuration Files: /etc/smokeping/config.d/Probes changed [not included] /etc/smokeping/config.d/Targets changed [not included] /etc/smokeping/smokeping_secrets [Errno 13] Brak dostępu: '/etc/smokeping/smokeping_secrets' -- no debconf information
