             Summary: buildAndPushRelease.py: scp to people.apache.org stalls during transfer
                 Key: LUCENE-5556
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5556
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: general/build
            Reporter: Steve Rowe
            Priority: Minor


When I first tried to build the first RC for 4.7.1 using {{dev-tools/scripts/buildAndPushRelease.py}}, after preparing both the Lucene and Solr releases, the {{scp}} command to transfer the Lucene release tarball to people.apache.org stalled after about 180MB had transferred out of 220MB.  After an hour or so, I {{kill -9}}'d the {{scp}} process and started over.  Thankfully, everything went smoothly the second go-around.

But I'd like to see if we can reduce the likelihood of this happening again.

I did some searching for causes/solutions to this problem and came across this recommendation to use {{scp}}'s {{-l}} option to limit bandwidth in order to prevent stalls: [http://www.aixmind.com/?p=1371] - the recommendation there limits bandwidth to 1MB/sec ({{-l 8192}} is 8192Kbit/sec = 8Mbit/sec = 1MB/sec).
