Hi, I took a look at Coral some time ago. For my personal taste it had two drawbacks which made me setup this one. a) The origin server needs to be reachable - if it's not the edge location can't deliver the content unless cached. This could be addressed by using coral not against the original SS server but against Johans mirror. That's the reason why I took the route of mirroring the SS content to a bucket and feeding the edge servers from this mirror. b) Speed. At least here (Munich) Coral CDN is even slower than SS directly. BTW: Simply try this to checkout: MRManager redirectFrom: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/' to: 'http://squeaksource.cdn.st Comments appreciated. CU, Udo On 26.01.12 03:00, Gastón Dall' Oglio wrote:
Hello.
Maybe you are interesting too in CoralCDN. See: http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/pharo-project/2011-October/055014.htm...

thanks a lot Udo. We really appreciate that.
I was in contact with nicolas about SmalltalkHub. They were trying to see if they could build a complete pharo solution for the back-end.

Before making this public I'd like to get some feedback on it's speed and reliability - especially if you are far away (in terms of hops and bandwidth) from the real squeaksource server. > > So if you can spare some time please drop me a mail and I'll send you further details. > > Thanks, > > Udo > > > On 17.01.12 15:00, Johan Fabry wrote: >> Hi All, >> >> Alex notified me that there were some mails flying around here about the squeaksource mirror. I'm usually not on this mailing list because of its high volume. I'd like to gather some questions that have been raised in the last few days (thanks Nabble!) and give answers / share my thoughts. I'll try to keep it brief. >> >> - How to use the mirror. If you don't know or tend to forget, just point a web browser at http://dsal.cl/squeaksource Everything is explained there.

We are using wget to copy everything over. If you know of a project that misses packages, please send me a mail (personally, not to the list is best I guess) and we will try to debug the issue. >> >> - Pharo 1.4 / ObjectAsMethodWrapper issues: The redirect package was written for 1.3, it uses ObjectAsMethodWrapper (i.e. method wrappers). I don't know why ObjectAsMethodWrapper (apparently) is no longer in 1.4 but I would highly recommend including it as it is a very useful package. I thought even the profiler used it. In any case, I welcome any contributions on how to make it work for 1.4 >> >> - Friendler configuration / user interface / having it in the core image / ...: I am all for it, but I cannot dedicate the time to this right now. All help is welcome and highly appreciated. I guess that some of you must be much more knowledgeable at preferences settings/user interfaces et al. so what would take you 10 minutes would take me a day ... >> >> I subscribed to the list now BTW so any comments/questions simply hit reply :-) >> >> ---> Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org<--- >> >> Johan Fabry >> jfabry@dcc.uchile.cl <mailto:jfabry@dcc.uchile.cl> - http://dcc.uchile.cl/~jfabry >> PLEIAD Lab - Computer Science Department (DCC) - University of Chile >> >> >> >> >> > > >
