git://sourceware.org/git/glibc.git is having trouble?

[Paul Pluzhnikov]

Greetings,

I am having repeated (but intermittent) problems pulling from
git://sourceware.org/git/glibc.git:

$ git pull
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
$ git pull
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
$ git pull
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
$ git pull
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
$ git pull
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
...
$ git pull
remote: Counting objects: 201, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (89/89), done.
remote: Total 124 (delta 52), reused 104 (delta 33)
Receiving objects: 100% (124/124), 138.82 KiB | 261 KiB/s, done.

$ git pull
Already up-to-date.


This is happening at
Sun Mar  4 10:47:50 PST 2012

I also had similar trouble last Friday.

Thanks,

I heard that due to recent DoS problems, someone imposed a new
limit on maximum number of connections.  I have heard that this
probably caused Tom Tromey to see the same sort of failure.

This makes me think that the limit is still too low.

However, I've just tried to update my own glibc clone
  Sun Mar  4 20:12:13 CET 2012
and it succeeded.

Yes, I set a loadavg <= limit for anon-git.

Load fluctuates dramatically on the machine.  I'm hoping that with the
new RHEL6 boxes, with cgroups, we won't have to trade services off
against each other quite so much.
