good news and bad news

[Heath Kehoe]

I've been doing some stress-testing of ovdb with the new
readserver.

The good news:  The readserver is a big win.  With 60 nnrp connections
all doing continuous xovers, the load ave was only around 6.  Without
the readserver, the loadave was above 40.

The bad news:  ovdb_server has a memory leak, and croaked after a
few thousand connections.


I'm diligantly hunting down the memory leak; and have an idea for a
further performance improvement... stay tuned.
