Staging env pain points
- Follow-up architectural discussion needed?
- Erik to schedule chat re: staging/development env
Yesterday:
- Reviewed Kushal's PR to fix the issue with long strings without spaces or dashes not wrapping
- Investigated and started documenting timeouts across workstation components: https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-workstation/issues/525#issuecomment-610605035
- Did more scalability testing and still seeing timeouts on staging with 1000 sources
- Started looking into making labels selectable in the client
Today:
- Bump client sync timeout from 40 to 60 seconds
- Continue investigation on staging timeouts with less than 1000 sources, somewhere closer to what our pilots org have ~300 to make sure timeouts aren't happening at much lower numbers too
- See if there is a third option for fixing long strings not wrapping in QLabels, continue to be available for re-review
- Continue to look into making labels selectable and why it's causing the client to crash
- Depending on John's schedule and timing, may start https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-client/issues/140 if he doesn't get to it first
