10:36.26 | bilarh | is log4j generally quite 'heavy' on writes? |
10:36.30 | morsing | No |
10:36.32 | morsing | Or yes |
10:36.34 | morsing | Depending |
10:36.39 | morsing | Don't really know |
10:36.49 | morsing | filemon? |
10:36.57 | bilarh | ok, so what you're saying is that "yes, it may be, or it may not be" :P |
10:37.06 | hali | log4j is quite efficent, but it does sync() a lot |
10:37.21 | bilarh | it completely killed my app actually |
10:37.32 | hali | missconfigured appenders? |
10:37.36 | bilarh | about 50 threads writing to the same log file |
10:37.44 | bilarh | and i guess the writes have to be serialized as well :) |
10:38.00 | hali | hm, the threads shoudln't access the file? |
10:38.18 | bilarh | don't they have their own log4j instance? |
10:38.20 | hali | they should call the log4j method to write to the file and the log4j thread should do the writing? |
10:38.26 | bilarh | oh right |
10:38.34 | hali | i think it's serialized per default |
10:38.55 | bilarh | maybe it is misconfigured then.. it seemed that it was waiting for the writes to complete |
10:39.00 | hali | i remember it was dog slow when using a jdbc appender |
10:39.05 | bilarh | mind, i was writing about 5000 lines per second :P |
10:39.38 | bilarh | i'm going to avoid log4j in the future, i think |
10:39.56 | hali | log4j is quite defacto standard in most web and app containers... so it's hard to avoid |
10:39.59 | bilarh | or at least be careful with it :) |

20:45.20 | z00dax | fedora has lots of people - centos needs people to help out |
20:45.47 | clive-h | I did rpms for the BBC when I worked for BBC Technology |
20:46.13 | z00dax | there does seem to be much centos usage at the bbc these days |
20:46.34 | clive-h | We were using RHEL 4 then |
20:46.43 | z00dax | i bet they still are |
20:46.46 | clive-h | and Solaris |
20:46.53 | z00dax | but they seem to also be using some centos |
20:47.02 | clive-h | I did solaris packages too |
20:47.06 | z00dax | so the bbc, any fun to work there ? |
20:47.15 | z00dax | y |
20:47.19 | clive-h | It was a hell of a commute |
20:47.23 | z00dax | you can do rpms on solaris :) |
20:47.33 | z00dax | where were/are they based ? |
20:47.44 | clive-h | pkgadd is the native format on solaris |
20:47.52 | clive-h | maidenhead |
20:48.17 | z00dax | you were doing crayford -> maidenhead daily ? |
20:48.26 | clive-h | yes |
20:48.33 | clive-h | Very very painful |
20:48.34 | z00dax | u da man |
20:48.42 | clive-h | 3 hours each way at best |
20:49.03 | clive-h | 3 month contract |
20:50.16 | clive-h | I was so glad when it was over |
20:51.57 | z00dax | i would have taken up a place on rent nearer to work if it was 3 months |
20:52.19 | clive-h | In retrospect I should have |
20:52.56 | clive-h | My first contract role though |
20:57.07 | *** join/#gllug ceronman (n=ceronman@AC9F3F7B.ipt.aol.com) |
21:02.54 | morsing | ceronman! |
21:03.13 | z00dax | morsing: |
21:03.19 | morsing | clive-h: Sounds like fun :) |
21:03.21 | morsing | z00dax! |
21:03.38 | z00dax | morsing: curry ? |
21:05.06 | clive-h | Fun: two trains,a tube and a cab each way |
21:05.06 | wethrin | Curry! |
21:05.14 | clive-h | It did pay well though |
21:06.18 | morsing | wethrin! |
21:06.26 | morsing | z00dax: Yes - just had one |
21:07.52 | ceronman | hello morsing |
21:08.05 | wethrin | morsing! |
21:08.55 | z00dax | clive-h: cant really do that sort of a thing for too long through |
21:08.57 | z00dax | though |
21:09.30 | clive-h | It was only 3 months |
21:09.59 | morsing | My contract has a termination period from the company (4 weeks) but not for me |
21:10.06 | morsing | Is that bad? |
21:10.25 | clive-h | That sounds a bit bad |
21:10.45 | morsing | Hmm... So it should explicitely state my termination period? |
21:11.05 | clive-h | I'd expect it too yes |
21:11.08 | morsing | Hmm... |
21:11.17 | morsing | Crap, getting more and more delayed |
21:11.31 | z00dax | yes, bonded labour is kinda illegal now isnt it ? |
21:11.35 | z00dax | be nice if you could leave them |
21:11.55 | clive-h | Though the Employment Acts do have statutory provisions |
21:14.28 | morsing | This is stupid, first they get the start date wrong and now this |
21:14.44 | morsing | What should I say - like four weeeks? Two weeks? |
21:14.50 | clive-h | How long have you been there? |
21:15.14 | morsing | -34 days |
21:15.24 | z00dax | if you make it the same as their term, you are covered each way |
21:15.39 | clive-h | 1 week sounds about right then |
21:16.14 | morsing | 1 week? For a 5 month contract? |
21:16.37 | clive-h | It's normally 1 week under 3 months service |
21:16.42 | clive-h | Then a month |
21:17.12 | clive-h | You should have parity with their options to terminate |
21:19.41 | morsing | I though when it was a contract it didn't change |
21:20.00 | morsing | Is there anything else I need to check reading through this? |
21:20.05 | clive-h | Depends on the terms of the contract |
21:20.13 | morsing | Hmm... |
21:20.39 | clive-h | If your termination options aren't specified assume parity with theirs |
21:20.48 | morsing | Ok |
21:21.18 | morsing | Unless otherwise stated in the Project Schedule or in clauses 12(b) or 12(c) below, there is no provision for early termination of this contract by either party. |
21:21.43 | clive-h | and what do those say? |
21:22.01 | morsing | Incompentence or conduct etc |
21:22.37 | clive-h | Then they might hold you to the full term |
21:23.13 | morsing | Nice - need a new contract |
21:23.17 | morsing | OR another job |
21:24.05 | clive-h | I need a job full stop |
21:24.17 | clive-h | But I think it's doable |
21:24.31 | morsing | Oh hang on... I waas reading the agency's contract with the client |
21:24.37 | morsing | That's different |
21:24.53 | morsing | Project Schedule |
21:25.41 | goibhniu | morsing: afaik they can't hold you to anything that isn't legal, I'd say you have a right to quit with a months notice regardless of the contract |
21:26.13 | morsing | goibhniu: I'm payed weekly though which in DK would mean a weeks notice |
21:26.27 | clive-h | Ahhh |
21:26.37 | morsing | clive-h: ? |
21:26.43 | clive-h | Are you working in DK? |
21:26.51 | morsing | No |
21:26.58 | morsing | Just comparing |
21:27.03 | clive-h | Then UK law is gonna apply |
21:27.11 | hali | you dawwgs |
21:27.20 | clive-h | I'd say a max of a month |
21:27.27 | clive-h | possibly a week |
21:27.32 | morsing | clive-h: Well of course... |
21:28.00 | clive-h | Ask their HR on Monday |
21:28.06 | morsing | clive-h: But should still be in the contract? |
21:28.26 | clive-h | It is usual to be explicitly stated |
21:28.36 | morsing | clive-h: I'm getting this done through the agency. They need to change the contract |
21:29.09 | goibhniu | morsing: there are also some things you could have a look at relating to ir35 |
21:30.43 | morsing | goibhniu: I've sent it to my accountant |
