This should make it possible for there to safely be multiple Tornado
processes running on different ports on the same system.
It may also fix a rare race bug in development, where previously, it
was possible for the Tornados processes for Casper and the main
development server to interfere; I haven't investigated whether this
was a real bug or not, but now those two services will use independent
Tornado files.
We still need to add something to direct traffic between the different
Tornado processes.
This logging was apparently broken when sorting imports; it's a fairly
unique thing in our codebase that this would be a problem. Prevent
future regressions by adding this exception explicitly to the isort
configuration.
runtornado unbuffers its output using
sys.stdout = os.fdopen(sys.stdout.fileno(), 'w', 0).
This is not python 3 compatible since we can't specify
buffering on a text stream in python 3. So use the '-u'
option of python when calling runtornado.py to make output
unbuffered.
The new Tornado handler tracking logic properly handled requests that
threw an exception or followed the RespondAsynchronously code path,
but did not properly de-allocated the handler in the syncronous case.
An easy reproducer for this is to load a new Zulip browser window;
that will leak 2 handler objects for the 2 synchronous requests made
from Django to Tornado as part of initial state fetching.
The recent Tornado memory leak fix
(1396eb7022) didn't use the correct
variable name for the current handler ID, causing this cleanup code to
fail in the event that a view raised an exception.
In 2ea0daab19, handlers were moved to
being tracked via the handlers_by_id dict, but nothing cleared this
dict, resulting in every handler object being leaked. Since a Tornado
process uses a different handler object for every request, this
resulted in a significant memory leak. We fix this by clearing the
handlers_by_id dict in the two code paths that would result in a
Tornado handler being de-allocated: the exception codepath and the
handler disconnect codepath.
Fixes#463.
Previously, client descriptors were referenced directly from the
handler object. Once we split the Tornado process into separate queue
and connection servers, these will no longer be in the same process,
so we need to reference them by ID instead.
This requires a puppet apply on each of staging and prod0 to update
the nginx configuration to support the new URL when it is deployed.
