Historic Emergency Calls in Halton Region involving Halton Paramedics

  • February 26, 2012 - Burlington VIA train derailment
gollark: Of course not.
gollark: If synapse runs out of file handles, it typically fails badly - live-locking at 100% CPU, and/or failing to accept new TCP connections (blocking the connecting client). Matrix currently can legitimately use a lot of file handles, thanks to busy rooms like #matrix:matrix.org containing hundreds of participating servers. The first time a server talks in a room it will try to connect simultaneously to all participating servers, which could exhaust the available file descriptors between DNS queries & HTTPS sockets, especially if DNS is slow to respond. (We need to improve the routing algorithm used to be better than full mesh, but as of March 2019 this hasn't happened yet).
gollark: Great idea and totally* practical via text to speech!
gollark: However, again, all is to be APIONET.
gollark: In theory, this is possible.
