[Swift-user] Restricting/fixing site scores ?

[Tiberiu Stef-Praun]

Hi

I'm trying to run a workflow, and it suffers from various things, one
of which being that the score of the site where the app runs gets too
low (i think), as I get these:
commitDelayedScore(localhost:-10.000(0.039):0/1 overload: -102309, 0.1

I am getting a lot of errors like these:
The cache already contains
localhost:sparse-iteration-dependency-v3-20081125-1015-cp7py371/shared/param.0.0

Also my workflow behaves non-deterministically: sometimes it finishes
correctly, but some other times it throws the cache error above, and
just hangs for a very long time.
My guess is that the "hanging" happens either because of some
synchronization or livelock issue, OR because of the filesystem
latency for creating the outputs (e.g. param.0.0) compared to the
notification coming from swift that the output files are created.

I'm not sure what to do about my issues, but it seems like eliminating
the endless wait because of the low score for the site will help with
the debugging.


Thank you
Tibi
