[Mono-dev] xsp2 - System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException: Method 'Read' not found

[Glen Ford]

Hi,

I have been doing performance testing on our Mono based Web Service.
I found under apache/mod_mono at a rate of above 25 requests per
second I was starting to get 500 errors but the requests were never
getting to my code.

I tried the same test against xsp2 and found the rate dropped lower
before failures, and my client side was now getting..

System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException: Method 'Read' not found in
type 'Mono.WebServer.BaseRequestBroker'

I suspect this is what was happening under mod_mono as well, it was
just being masked.

Using trace option seemed to indicate a problem somewhere in
transparent proxy generation - but I cannot be sure using trace whilst
applying load makes life a little difficult.

However I found http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=76757 which
seems to indicate this should have been addressed sometime last year?
I am using mono/xsp2 1.2.4.2 - perhaps there is a regression?

This issue is causing me some concern as the web service will soon
need to handle 100 requests per second per machine.


Regards,


Glen
