Re: [Sks-devel] open files

[Todd Fleisher]

Are you sure you didn’t do a fast build? I originally did a normal build on my 
servers, but due to the initial issues causing me to have to rebuild several 
times I switched to fast build to save time. I am still running that way 
currently and can confirm my sks db process has the dump files opened. The 
documentation claims a normal build will run faster (although it contains an 
odd caveat to that statement - “depending from the source/age of the keydump”), 
but I haven’t noticed any serious performance problems since getting everything 
tuned and dialed in after the first few months. Maybe I will try a re-build one 
of these days and see if there’s any noticeable difference.
