Howdy,

I recently installed 3.8.0 version. But I couldn’t really get on with it as I ran out of memory on the linux system I’m running (Ubuntu 10.10). Now with the 3.8.1 I see weird continuous errors while doing MusicBrainz lookups. Errors look like this:

02/11/2010 17.28.37:com.jthink.jaikoz.manipulate.musicbrainzhelper.MusicBrainzServerQuery:doQuery:SEVERE: 17:28:37:025:URL:http://musicbrainz.org/ws/1/release/?type=xml&limit=10&query=artist:“lovex” AND release:“divine insanity”

There was some discussion somewhere else about several MusicBrainz passes that may cause such behavior. Anyway my question here is:
Is there a “Jaikoz log files for dummies” somewhere. That would propably ease my pain in here.

Br,
Hogan

P.S. Handling over 65000 songs takes a while. I got the java VM running with 2000megs of memory. VM restrictions however doesn’t allow more memory than that (the jerks at the hw store sold me 8Gigs of memory ;-). Also lookups over the network are slow with rate of 1 song/sec. Do you have any plans to …hmmm should I say batchify the network lookups. Like sending 1000 lookups over in a bunch in one TCP session. As a complete ‘tourist’ here that would sound like more efficient/speedy. Would there be such functionality available in MB ?

They are not errors just logged to make debugging easier since introduced completely new matching algorithm recently. That is why they ar ein the jaikoz debug log rather than the Jaikoz user log

If your OS is 64bit, then you can install 64bit Java to overcome this limit.

Musicbrainz limits us to one query per second, thats all we can do at the moment although they do have plans to change that. We do cache artist and release lookups so we dont have to do the same release again, but if you are fixing alot of files Jaikoz isn designed so you can just leave it to run overnight

… live it running over the week :wink:

Do you have any Java VM preference on a linux box ? I think there are a load of different VM-engines available in addition to the ‘official’ SUN-branded one.

You mean ones addtional to -Xmx (max Heap) that ae Linux specific, no.
