Bitzi General Discussion: Time-out problem

Time-out problem   [forward as email]
I'm currently using the jBitColider to submit some bitprints, and it worked so far, but now I mostly get errors when submitting relative normal amount of files, more exactly Multiple [86] Bitprint Submission. The problem is, it just gets stuck like this, or shows a message about some proxy, and I don't use any proxies for this site (it may refer to something related to the site, I'm not sure). Because jbitcolider actually loads them pretty fast (in a few seconds), I'm thinking it's more of a problem from the site.

The first time it happened was when I tried submitting over 1000 bitprints at once, but now it even gives me problem at low numbers like 86. The files are simple bitmaps, no exes or malware or anything, so I don't know what the problem really is.

We do use an inbound proxy (as a caching 'accelerator'), so that's likely the error message you've noticed.

There might be a timeout parameter I can change on that proxy -- but by allowing larger submissions to stay in-process longer, it could introduce other lag problems.

For now, I would suggest using smaller batches or retrying. (Does a timed-out submission ever succeed on identical retry?)

When the submission process is next redesigned, we might add a formal cap on its size or figure a way to accept data without the large, slow transaction that seems to be the problem here.
