FWIW I am concerned about incoming bandwidth, both myself and the rest of COD's IT watch that pretty closely. I started tinkering with my request lines yesterday, still working out how I want to set up the final topology but I'm starting my testing. Especially now that I am aware of the two-feed limitation I want to get cranking on this, and make things here both as reliable & efficient as possible. I already have a couple of questions. First, what does this error mean? I'm seeing these on my downstream sever (v6.13.6), and they seem fairly common: pqact[66069] ERROR filel.c:3032:reap() Child 39808 exited with status 255 The Child number will vary, but the rest is always the same. Similarly, what does "ldmd.c:cleanup() NOTE Exiting" mean? I'm seeing this on my upstream server (v6.13.7) associated with a few different IPs/hostnames, also pretty common. A couple of those IPs are also mine, and I've already made sure to limit redundant requests to no more than two on both of those. And yes, I do plan on updating everything to v6.13.8 soon, just figured I'd start with some initial adjustments to my requests lines first.
