do you have an idea why it is stalling? Is the executed query so complex or is
someone trying to write into the database while we try to find a subscriber?
At the 26C3 (IIRC) we had issues with blocking the database as we
had a separate process that locked the database for its queries.
It would be very nice if you could find students as we have plenty DB related
tasks where we could need a hand. Some of these could include:
-) Figure out why we are stalling (rw locks inside sqlite?)
-) Create an index for the sqlite databases... (proof it is making
things faster with a standalone benchmark having the same pattern
as bsc_hack in your network...)
-) Making the DB interface asynchronous (send and forget, send and
async reply)
-) Maybe go so far to use TCAP/MAP and implement a proper VLR module..
