KILLALLHUMANS01Are there more network issues?
Over the last ~2 hours connectivity to my VPS has been sporadic to nonexistent.
(I'm brycec for those that don't realize)
I've only just started digging into it, maybe others know more already...

***brycec has joined #arpnetworks [08:10]
brycec(And at this second, it's looking okay...)
Holy shit, might just be my VPS - 15 minute loadavg is 122.
I don't think it's anything caused by my own VPS workload... Is somebody beating up kvr21?
Okay so it actually was me, and specifically smokeping going hog-wild on RAM usage. *sigh* Ignore me.

mercutiobrycec: did it run many instances at once somehow or leak terribly? [15:43]
mnathaniwhats the best way to connect remotely to a graphical Ubuntu Desktop from Windows? I unsuccessfully tried xrdp, x2go, freenx does not seem to have packages for 16.04 [15:44]
mercutiovnc?
last i looked X on Windows didn't seem so great
[15:44]
mnathaniany recommended version of vnc? [15:45]
mercutioyou could also run a virtual machine on windows and do remote X [15:45]
mnathaniI think I have seen tightvnc [15:45]
mercutiono recommended. i don't try and show linux on windows
i'd just use putty myself :)
[15:45]
mkbmnathani, x2vnc? [15:46]
mercutiothere's also synergy if you just want to share keyboard/mouse between the two and have multiple monitors [15:46]
mnathaniI am using synergy currently
but would like to access the ubuntu box remotely
will try that remote x from a vm
[15:50]
should this command do it: ssh -X blyman@the-server [15:55]
mercutiothat will run applications from the computer you connect into locally
which btw is a huge security hole
i mean if you run X applications from a compromised server it can steal stuff from your local machine
i still reckon synergy is the way to go atm. but i kind of wish i could move chrome windows from one computer to another
i can't even run chrome on both at once, as shared /home
[16:04]
..... (idle for 21mn)
mnathaniyou could, if you were ben on one machine and mercutio on the other :-) [16:28]
mercutioi might be able to symlink something to hostname [16:29]
mnathaniis there a portable install of chrome? Where you dont need to put it in the default location [16:31]
.... (idle for 19mn)
mercutiodunno
it uses normal dot directories so you can always symlink to file system and then back again
[16:50]
mkbthere's also chrome --user-data-dir [16:51]
mercutioi didn't know that [16:52]
mkbI only learned because I typed chrome --help [16:52]
mercutioatm i just split between chromimum and google-chrome-beta
the memory reduction in new chrome didn't seem to help a lot though
i wonder if having local cache would help much
i don't really notice any overhead for NFS
but my old benchmark program for chrome isn't supported anymore :(
[16:52]
mjp_use Xmarks to share tabs/history/bookmarks between browsers? [16:58]
mercutiochrome actualyl history sharing between devices automatically
not tabs though
[16:58]
mjp_and not with firefox :) [16:59]
mercutioheh
my main problem with firefox atm is if you wipe the url bar to paste a new url into it it saves into into your cut buffer
[16:59]
mjp_adds it to the X11 buffer without highlighting the text? [17:04]
mercutioWell it highlights when you click on it to delete to paste
If you just paste it adds to existing URL
[17:04]
mkbmercutio, control-l ? [17:06]
mercutiono joy
i think i know how to solve it though actually, i just need to tell firefox to not have a url for new windows
even if ctrl-l worked, that's an unwieldy combo if using mouse

brycecLeak terribly. 15:43:41 @mercutio | brycec: did it run many instances at once somehow or leak terribly? [22:52]
mercutioi've noticed over time that lots of linux stuff has increased in virtual size heaps
i dunno if it's the way it's accounted that's changed or if virtual size has gone up
like my main smokeping processes are using 224864 virt, 38184 to 18820 resident
err 388184 to 38820
still 38 mb resident seems a lot
the fastcgi processes are even higher though
actually, i noticed that changing from 32bit to 64bit with perl had a huge increase in memory usage.
but yeah looking at both monitoring hosts they're using over 200 megabit residential
megabytes etc
damn i need coffee
[22:55]
brycecMy smokeping slaves are all automatically restarted daily or if they exceed 512MB memory usage (whenever either matches). The master is normally okay, but this morning it just went kaboom [23:00]
mercutioif you don't use fastcgi performance is terrible though.
i don't restart mine and i've never had an issue
i'm doing multi-master though.
[23:00]
brycecConsidering my slaves reach 512MB... Yeah, it's necessary ;) [23:01]
mercutiobut your master never has issues normally? [23:01]
brycecRight [23:02]
mercutiocurious
maybe that's related to how i don't have issues normally
heh i've had heaps of memory usage from amavis before
it's only about 135mb per process now though
in years gone by it seemed insane
considering i used amavis on 64mb openbsd box :)
