[jira] [Commented] (AIRFLOW-5506) Airflow scheduler stuck

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-5506?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16945741#comment-16945741 ] 

JOAO TRINDADE commented on AIRFLOW-5506:
----------------------------------------

We've seen this issue on 1.10.4

We manage to get it running by turning off some of the dags on the UI.

> I'm testing the use of Airflow, and after triggering a (seemingly) large number of DAGs at the same time, it seems to just fail to schedule anything and starts killing processes. These are the logs the scheduler prints:

> I'm using a LocalExecutor with a PostgreSQL backend DB. It seems to be happening only after I'm triggering a large number (>100) of DAGs at about the same time using external triggering. As in:
> {{airflow trigger_dag DAG_NAME}}
> After waiting for it to finish killing whatever processes he is killing, he starts executing all of the tasks properly. I don't even know what these processes were, as I can't really see them after they are killed...
> Did anyone encounter this kind of behavior? Any idea why would that happen?
