KCrim Slowness

Server resources, story of the week.

I made a decision six months ago to have a team rip out it's code and replace it with a completely new implementation using a tool that it seemed like we were just slowly writing on our own unknowingly (dbt, for those curious). We're just using it in a way that it's not meant to be used - live reporting, instead of batch processing. Cool, we're being innovative.

Yesterday found that it's running slowly. Saw in the docs that it explicitly warns that when your project gets big the compilation time is slow. 30 second compilations on top of our query time is completely unacceptable, and it's just going to get worse as this thing grows. This means that the entire pivot is fucked, and we just wasted six months, and now we're not going to hit the deadline to get off the contract for the third party software we're trying to replace, which is going to cost us five million dollars. I went home, told my wife that if I were my company I'd fire me, and was an absolute wreck for about 24 hours.

Today I discovered that it's taking 30+ seconds because our infrastructure team allots, by default, 1/4th of a CPU core to each Kubernetes pod. It runs in five seconds on my Mac, yet in our fucking production environment we have a tiny fraction of the hardware that our individual computers have. I just have to go through some corporate hoops to justify the cost of running our production applications on hardware that's as good as our individual fucking laptops.

I don't expect anyone to read this; purely cathartic.

tl;dr - Fuck the cloud.

Ahh yes...kubernetes pod quotas. My favorite....

To be fair, I will sometimes, on a more minor level, do this too if a client catches something I missed.

My favorite - "Try it again"

I am content to believe that somewhere someone said "Whoops! Blame the customer and make this go away."

Late last night, and this morning.

[KUTradition]

all sorts of issues this morning

ajax error (whatever that is) as well as server issues

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Was basically dead for me for about 15 minutes between 8:50am (Central time) and 9:05am.
I'm not going to tell you (pdub) what to do but I feel it's ridiculous if you are paying someone who is providing you a service (sever?) that doesn't work properly - and they should give you some sort of compensation (money/refund). That's just my worthless 2cents.

What an awful thing to call someone.

PDub, BAN?

15 minutes? Oh, the humanity

15 minutes this morning. It's been other minutes in the past.
Frankly, I don't really care about the 15 minutes today. I do care that pdub shared with us that he addressed the issue in the past, seemed he himself was frustrated, and shared with us what he was told when he tried to resolve the issue. We all hoped and believed it may have/had been rectified soon after that.
As someone who uses this site (and makes a minimal contribution to help fund the usage of the site), all I did was share my feelings with pdub (and whoever else read my post) this morning.
That's all.

To be fair, everything was better when Trump was President.
