[Savannah-hackers] Re: Problems with gcc.gnu.org/sources.redhat.com

[Sylvain Beucler]

Are there still troubles with checking out GCC right now?

Paul sent this report some days ago:
"* Investigated an outage of savannah this past week.  CVS checkouts of
 GCC were hanging and used up all the memory on the machine.  A
 reboot was necessary to fix the problem.  There's no clear
 indication why the problem arose, but it could be related to the
 nighly rsync of the GCC sourcecode.

* Investigated a hard drive on savannah that gave an I/O error and was
 kicked out of the RAID array.  After passing a long running SMART
 test, and having shown no other errors, the disk was put back into
 the RAID array."
