Hi Sen, re: > I have been bothered by this issue for some time.

When we looked at how titan was configured previously, we developed two conclusions which I though we had relayed to you: 1) first, titan seemed to be suitably equipped to be able to handle all of the IDD data that it had/has REQUESTs for We noted that the LDM queue size on titan needed to be made a lot larger to cut down on "second trip" receipts of data. The problem with increasing the LDM queue size as that titan did not have enough memory... I recall that titan had 20 GB of RAM, so I could only increase the LDM queue to 12 GB and still leave enough RAM for the various processing that it was doing. I seem to recall that we recommended increasing the memory to as much as possible (whatever the machine will accept), but this should be more than 64 GB so that the queue size can be increased to at least 32 GB. 2) the last time I looked, it seemed like there was some issues with latencies for the feeds being REQUESTed A quick look at the real-time stats latencies titan is reporting shows that, for instance, the latency for CONDUIT is low - a good thing. 3) I believe that you used to be REQUESTing the GOES-16/17 GRB imagery and products in the SATELLITE feed (which is known as DIFAX in older LDM versions). Since I don't see that feed being reported in real-time stats from titan, I'll assume that you removed the feed REQUEST So, the questions are: - has more memory been installed in titan? If yes, how much does it have now? - is the LDM queue size the same as it was the last time we were logged in? At that time, it was 12 GB. - does your LDM log file have indications that look like "processed oldest product"? These indicate that the products are not getting processed before they are at the end of the queue, and this, in turn, is a strong indication that products are being scoured out of the queue before they are acted on by LDM pattern-action file actions. Is the access to your machine the same as it used to be? If yes, and if I can find the login information, I will try to logon and poke around.
